What Does Saw Palmetto Do?

This is a very simple saw palmetto formula, but it uses plain powder rather than a standardized extract. That makes the actual active potency less clear than products that specify fatty acid and sterol content.

Overview

Saw palmetto can cause mild digestive upset, headache, or dizziness in some users.
It may interact with anticoagulants/antiplatelets and other medications that affect bleeding.
Pregnant or breastfeeding people should avoid use unless specifically advised by a clinician.
The label dose is 450 mg per capsule, but the listed form is powder rather than a standardized extract, so potency may be less predictable than extract-based products.
Contains bovine and/or porcine gelatin, so it is not suitable for vegetarians or vegans and may be problematic for some religious dietary restrictions.
