Until 1950 in the U.S., saw palmetto was the officially recognized treatment for urinary and genital problems. Europeans, on the other hand, have long used the prostate-healing gifts of saw palmetto (Serenoa repens) for urinary health and, more specifically, for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
BPH affects many men over 50, and results in frequent urination, decreased urinary flow, nighttime awakenings, and other symptoms. While symptoms are generally harmless, they can be frustrating.
Many studies show that an oily compound in saw palmetto berries can reduce the symptoms of a mild to moderately enlarged prostate without reducing the size of the prostate.1 How it does this is unclear. An anti-inflammatory action may inhibit the hormones that cause prostate cells to multiply. Then again, it may be the actions of an anti-male sex hormone.
What most people like about saw palmetto is that it costs about one-third to one-half that of the conventional BPH medications—and it may work faster and cause fewer side effects.2 Some researchers have found that saw palmetto boosts the immune system's ability to kill bacteria which may help with urinary tract infections.3 Future research will explore the role of saw palmetto’s effect on cancer-promoting hormones and prostate cancer.
Pygeum may also promote prostate health, and has been approved for treating mild to moderate BPH in Europe since the early 1970s. From the bark of the Pygeum africanum tree, pygeum appears to reduce inflammation, promote healthy urination, and eliminate cholesterol deposits that can occur with BPH.
In addition to extracts of saw palmetto and pygeum, Jigsaw Health Saw Palmetto Pygeum Plus Prostate Support also includes nettle root extract, pumpkin seed oil extract, lycopene, and a super-absorbable zinc—all in a more effectively absorbed softgel capsule. These natural ingredients work synergistically with saw palmetto and pygeum to help support prostate health!
