The Bull stops here

Saw Palmetto is a palm tree and the berries are used to create the herbal supplement. The actrive ingredient includes fatty acids and plant sterols.

Saw Palmetto is mainly known for its prostate health benefits. In many Western countries it is used for the relief of prostate enlargement and Benign Prostate Hyperplasia (BPH). Although studies continue with saw Palmetto helping symptoms of BPH, it is thought that it can help reduce urinary pain, stregthen urinary flow and helping the bladder to empty, plus it could even encourage the prostate to return to a normal size.

It is found mainly in Africa and South America. It has been used for thousands of years, originally used by natives for urinary infections. 

For all men this is definitely worth considering, even more so as you age, as it can help the health of your prostate and allowing you to keep getting in the gym to train.

Available in the form of capsule or tablet. It is taken on its own or found in formulas which encourage the libido, and health supplements specifically designed for men

There is no recommended RDA. Currently researching the best amount to take.

1. If you arte consider taking for BPH or other illnesses effecting the urinary tract, bladder or prostate please ensure you talk to a health professional as they can offer guidance, support and even monitor your progress.

As men age this is definitely something to consider taking to benefit the health of your prostate and even prevent any illnesses relating to the prostate occurring.
