    saw palmetto worthless for prostate

    I know alot of us use herbs to combat sides and negative effects. The AMA just completed a 5 year stundy on saw palmetto and found absolutely no beneficial results when compared to the control group on the placebos. The article will be published in next months NEJM.

    I am not surprised. Some urologists believe it has zero benefit. The problem is organic products like that dont really become bioavailble at the intended spot (rapidly broken down like food). Milk thistle, tribulus and other products of the like can be called into question too.

    If you want an all natural product to help out the prostate take some zinc, EFAs, and selenium.
