About Saw Palmetto

Saw Palmetto (serenoa repens) is a type of palm native to the southeastern United States. It earns its name from the sharp, saw-like teeth on the stalks that attach the tree’s leaves to its stem. The dark berries of the plant are commonly used in supplements to improve prostate health, balance hormone levels, and prevent hair loss in men. It is also associated with other benefits, including decreased inflammation and improved urinary function.

Vesta Ingredients’ Saw Palmetto uses a proprietary CO2 extraction process that makes it free from all chemical solvents, leaving it completely natural. This is the best option when using dietary supplements because the goal is total health and nutrition not added synthetics.

Benefits of Saw Palmetto

Saw Palmetto has many benefits, with a highlight of men’s health. It may help block the activity of 5-alpha reductase (5a-R), an enzyme that converts testosterone into a hormone linked to hair loss, called dihydrotestosterone (DHT).

Along those lines, it can be used by men to boost testosterone levels naturally, which can impact several aspects of health, including body composition, sex drive, mood, and cognition.

It may also prevent hair loss by reducing the uptake of DHT in the hair follicles, which decreases its ability to bind to specific hormone receptors. One study shows Saw Palmetto was effective at improving hair growth in 60% of men with male pattern baldness between the ages of 23 and 64.

Another benefit for men is that it may also improve urinary tract function associated with benign prostate hyperplasia (BHP) – a condition that causes an enlargement of the prostate gland and results in decreased urine flow.
