History
Saw palmetto berries were first used by Native Americans as a diuretic and sexual tonic, as well as for stomach ache and dysentery.
Traditional Usage
Saw Palmetto is an antiflammatory and anti-exudative. It is believed that Saw Palmetto extract lowers DHT levels in prostate tissue, a substance that causes enlargement of the prostate gland. As a result, Saw Palmetto increases the flow of urine, reduces painful urination and helps to prevent nocturia, the need to urinate frequently during the night.
