Saw Palmetto targets a substance that is associated with hair loss known as dihydrotestosterone (DHT) [1, 2]. The ability of saw palmetto to disrupt DHT activity also promotes a healthy prostate and urinary tract, making it beneficial towards targeting the frequent or urgent need to urinate, increased urination throughout the night, weak urinary flow, or poor bladder emptying due to an enlarged prostate [3]. Taking this herb also enhances the immune system's ability to target prostate infections and it appears to disrupt prostate cancer cell growth [4].
Hair, prostate, and urinary tract health [1-4]
A hormonal imbalance may cause certain enzymes such as 5-alpha-reductase to begin to convert testosterone in men into a stronger substance called dihydrotestosterone (DHT). Increased DHT levels leads to the accumulation of a thick, dandruff-like substance called sebum. Sebum can clog the roots of the scalp, which can subsequently disrupt nutrient transport to the scalp and hair follicles, thereby leading to hair loss. In addition, if the levels of DHT become too high the body struggles to break it down and DHT can start building up in the prostate. Saw Palmetto blocks DHT activity, thereby preventing the buildup of sebum and hair loss [1, 2]. Furthermore, saw palmetto berry extract has been shown to promote the shrinkage of the inner lining of the prostate in men who are experiencing symptoms of an enlarged prostate by promoting an optimal hormonal balance [3].
