What is saw palmetto
Saw palmetto is an extract from the berries of Serenoa repens, a palm species from the southeastern United States. The berries naturally contain fatty acids and plant sterols such as beta-sitosterol and stigmasterol. Saw palmetto is one of the most commonly used botanical supplements among men. This product uses a 4:1 extract: four parts of dried berry are concentrated into one part extract, meaning 320 mg of extract is equivalent to 1280 mg of dried berry.
Why zinc has been added
Zinc is a trace element with multiple approved health claims. Among other things, it contributes to the maintenance of normal testosterone levels in the blood and to normal protein synthesis. Combining zinc with saw palmetto creates a formula that links a botanical extract with a mineral that has approved claims. The claims on this page apply to zinc; no EFSA claims have been approved for saw palmetto itself.
