Use of Saw palmetto in chronic prostatitis and BPH: there is no chance of getting rid of the diseases
In today’s pharmacy industry, without fear of unjustly discrediting anyone, two directions can be distinguished. In one, highly qualified specialists and creators work, sincerely trying to help humanity as much as possible in the fight against diseases; in the other — opportunists whose goal is enrichment. If an uninformed layman knew how many of the latter there are in this field, he would at least be horrified.
Saw palmetto reviews
The existence of completely opposite reviews about Saw palmetto and its modifications (NOW-Foods Saw Palmetto Extract, Webber Naturals — Saw Palmetto, Solgar Saw Palmetto Berry Extract, Ultimate Prostate Support by Natural Factors, Prostalex Plus, AMS Advanced Prosta-Forte, Naturelo Prostate & Urinary Health), and frequent user questions about the real capabilities of these products, prompted the author of this website to conduct a detailed analysis of this preparation. Today, the greatest drawback — even the misfortune — of the Internet is the possibility of remaining anonymous (most of us do not hide our faces in everyday life). This anonymity breeds a lot of negativity. One of its forms is complete impunity for textual deception or, conversely, for defamation. I deliberately reread many opinions about Saw palmetto and found a stereotype in the positive ones. For example, there are many reviews from wives about the miraculous healing of their husbands. If that’s true, wonderful — caring for a loved one is sacred. But I quickly noticed that the writing style of such “testimonies” is identical, meaning they were written by one person or, at most, a few. This is done very simply: an interested party hires a certain number of performers who monitor online forums and comment sites, inserting “enthusiastic” reviews everywhere, covering up existing negative ones, signing them with invented and always new names or pseudonyms created by the same principle. The way of expressing thoughts in text is like handwriting, like a fingerprint — unique to each person. If you aim to trace its repetition in “admiring” evaluations of all kinds of Saw palmetto, sooner or later it becomes evident. This is alarming, but of course, I will not consider such an observation proof of deliberate distortion of the truth.
Saw palmetto: real reviews from men
Here, it already looks much more authentic. There is no trace of positivity; some do not restrain their expressions where permitted. Some users felt discomfort at the start of use and stopped treatment; others completed the recommended course conscientiously and concluded it was completely useless. There’s plenty of information saying that Saw palmetto not only failed to help but brought new, unsolvable problems — and there are many such opinions. I even read curses! But I will not consider these reviews absolute proof either (there are enough angry people online!), so I’ll continue.
Saw palmetto use
Manufacturers classify Saw palmetto as an organotropic remedy (organotropic meaning aimed exclusively at a specific organ — in this case, the prostate in men). It is not officially recognized as a medicinal product. Naturally, Saw palmetto has no international nonproprietary name, and reputable urologists do not include it in their prescriptions. But that is not decisive either (perhaps it was invented by an unrecognized genius?), so I will continue with brief characteristics of Saw palmetto modifications.
Saw palmetto tablets
The instructions for Saw palmetto tablets indicate a prostate extract content of 100 milligrams. Pills are also offered for the prevention of prostate problems.
Saw palmetto instructions for use (actual effect), why it is useless, why it is harmful
The idea of this type of therapy is not new. Most likely, it was borrowed from ancient folk medicine. The basis here lies in elements that supposedly have a beneficial effect on the prostate (extract of saw palmetto fruits – *Serenoa repens*, octacosanol (wheat germ oil), vitamin E, selenium (zinc gluconate), zinc). This composition is what attracts potential buyers unconditionally.
This product (that is, the prostate extract) is presented by its authors as a complex of biologically active peptides (from Greek peptid – “nutrient”), and certain positive properties are attributed to them. But it is precisely with this attribution that the deception begins, proving that Saw palmetto is a dummy. In nature, active peptides exist only in nanogram quantities (for understanding: there are 1 billion nanograms in one gram) and therefore cannot exhibit any significant healing properties. These are encyclopedic facts, available in reputable sources, and thus deserve more trust than the claims of the manufacturers of Saw palmetto and its types (Sabal, Sabal serrulata, Serenoa repens).
But that’s not all. For a long time, I could not understand why genuine reviews of Saw palmetto use contained angry statements about subsequent painful complications. The essence turned out to be in the composition. The auxiliary component and suppository base of Saw palmetto are essential oils. Once absorbed, such fats penetrate the prostate and periprostatic blood vessels, settling there in the form of plaques, completely disrupting the already poor blood circulation of the patient.
This is a kind of knockout for the male prostate; stagnation there becomes a breeding ground for pathogenic bacteria, with a high probability of calcifications and other complications. After such a fatty attack, I know of only one recovery option — through a healthy lifestyle. It is available for review via the link (announcement) at the top of the text. But not every patient is aware of it.
In general, I don’t know how the manufacturers of Saw palmetto intend to help patients in the treatment of prostate adenoma and chronic prostatitis, but I believe it has become clear to you how it harms.
Saw palmetto price
I am not sure that, after reading the arguments presented, anyone will still have the desire to buy any variety of this product. Nevertheless, I should note that the price of Saw palmetto and all its forms is astonishingly high. Manufacturers justify this, from their own point of view, by the cost of the natural ingredients used in the preparations. Yet, industrial-scale processing — legally accessing tens or even hundreds of thousands of units — should minimize production costs. The process cannot be compared with handcrafted medicines, yet this comparison is shamelessly made.
Saw palmetto analogues
A review of Saw palmetto analogues can only correspond fully to this one. The price of these analogues is not at all attractive in terms of affordability.
On what can replace Saw palmetto
No matter how much the pharmaceutical bosses try by all means to erase the most effective method of therapy for BPH and chronic prostatitis, it will continue to exist — and many men with prostate problems must know about it.
The treatment of chronic prostatitis and prostate adenoma is possible through a healthy lifestyle, the foundation of which is therapeutic exercise and rational dietary restrictions. Why should one know this? Because it brings joy, is easily achievable for most (after all, let’s admit, there are very few truly lazy people among us), will not burden you, but rather raise your life to a completely different, much higher quality level — and most importantly, it will free you from the shackles of disease without consequences.
