Traditional Uses

Prostate & Urinary Tract Support:
Saw Palmetto is one of the most extensively researched herbs for male urinary and prostate health. It is primarily used to relieve symptoms associated with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) — a common condition where the prostate enlarges, restricting urinary flow. Clinical trials show that Saw Palmetto extract can significantly reduce nighttime urination, improve urine flow, and decrease residual urine volume. Its unique blend of fatty acids and phytosterols helps inhibit the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT) — a hormone that stimulates prostate cell growth and contributes to BPH and male-pattern hair loss.

Hormonal Balance & Libido:
Saw Palmetto supports hormonal equilibrium in both men and women. By modulating testosterone and DHT levels, it helps maintain healthy reproductive and adrenal function. Traditionally, it has been used as a mild aphrodisiac and to enhance vitality, libido, and muscle tone. In women, it may support hormonal balance during menopause and help manage androgen-related conditions such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) or mild hirsutism (excess hair growth).

Hair Health & DHT Regulation:
Because of its ability to block the enzyme 5-alpha-reductase — responsible for converting testosterone into DHT — Saw Palmetto is increasingly used as a natural treatment for male and female pattern hair thinning. By reducing DHT accumulation in hair follicles, it may help slow hair loss and encourage healthier regrowth.

Anti-Inflammatory & Immune Support:
Rich in phytosterols, polysaccharides, and fatty acids such as lauric, oleic, myristic, and palmitic acids, Saw Palmetto exhibits mild anti-inflammatory and immune-supportive actions. It has been used traditionally to ease bladder inflammation, support respiratory function in chronic bronchitis, and strengthen the immune system.

Muscle & Energy Support:
Historically, Saw Palmetto was used as a strengthening tonic for those recovering from illness, debility, or weight loss. Its mild anabolic effect — enhancing nutrient absorption and supporting muscle tissue — makes it popular among athletes and individuals seeking natural ways to maintain stamina and body strength.

How It Works:
Saw Palmetto’s therapeutic effects come from its high content of fatty acids and phytosterols, which inhibit 5-alpha-reductase, blocking DHT formation and preventing excessive androgen activity. This mechanism helps shrink an enlarged prostate, reduce inflammation, and stabilise hormonal activity. Additionally, its polysaccharides contribute immune-modulating and anti-inflammatory effects.

Cautions:
Saw Palmetto is generally well tolerated when used at recommended doses. However, individuals with hormone-dependent conditions, prostate cancer, or those taking hormone therapy or blood-thinning medications should seek medical advice before use. Not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding due to hormonal activity.
