Hormones and the Prostate Gland
The prostate is a walnut-sized gland located under the bladder, surrounding the urinary tract in men. Beginning in their forties, men experience an increase in the amount of dihydrotestosterone DHT , a potent male hormone, in the prostate. The formation of DHT is further increased by xenoestrogens in the environment. These are substances such as certain pesticides, treated foods, synthetic organochlorines, and other endocrine disrupters that block or mimic natural hormones.
Saw palmetto is believed to help prevent the conversion of testosterone to DHT, and accelerate the breakdown and elimination of DHT from prostate tissues. Its natural phytoestrogens also may block artificial estrogen-like compounds from accumulating in prostate tissue. Thus it offsets the hormonal imbalances caused by aging and environmental challenges.
For centuries, saw palmetto berries Serenoa repens were used as food by Native Americans. They are rich in terols and fatty acids.
Saw palmetto extract has been extensively studied for its effects on the prostate.
Planetary Formulas Prosta Palmetto contains a highly concentrated extract of this renowned berry, standardized to yield 85-95% fatty acids and sterols, the amount of these beneficial compounds typically used in recent prostate health research. Each Prosta Palmetto softgel supplies 320 mg of saw palmetto, the equivalent amount used in recent European studies.
