Saw Palmetto & Prostate Health — What the Research Says

Saw Palmetto is one of the most widely used herbal ingredients in men's health supplements. But what does the research actually say, and why is it so popular?

What Is Saw Palmetto?

Saw Palmetto (Serenoa repens) is a small palm plant native to the southeastern United States. Its berries have been used for centuries in traditional medicine, and today it is one of the best-selling herbal supplements in Europe and North America.

Why Is It Used for Prostate Health?

As men age, the prostate gland can gradually enlarge — a natural process that can affect urinary comfort. Saw Palmetto is widely used to support prostate health and urinary function, and has been the subject of numerous clinical studies over the past three decades.

What Does the Research Say?

Multiple studies have examined Saw Palmetto's role in supporting prostate health. It is thought to work by influencing certain hormonal pathways involved in prostate tissue. While research is ongoing, it remains one of the most studied natural ingredients in men's health.
