What is saw palmetto?

Saw palmetto is a low-growing palm species native to the south-eastern United States. The plant grows in dense clumps, and its leaves are fan-shaped with saw-toothed stalks, which gave the plant its name. Saw palmetto bears dark, olive-sized berries that are harvested, dried and ground into a powder. This product does not use an extract but whole berry powder, so the capsule contains the natural composition of the whole berry – according to the manufacturer, including flavonoids, plant sterols and fatty acids. No nutrient reference value has been established for saw palmetto, which is why the %NRV column of the nutrition table shows two asterisks.

How to use?

Take two capsules two to three times a day with water or food. Do not take more than six capsules a day. If you use other food supplements containing saw palmetto at the same time, take their amounts into account too. After opening, keep the container in a cool, dry place and close the lid tightly after each use.
