Saw Palmetto

Saw palmetto has been used for years as an alternative to mainstream medicine. It has been touted as a cure for just about every physical ailment, but its biggest advantage is as an anti-DHT compound. DHT, or dihydrotestosterone, is one of the metabolities of testosterone. DHT has been linked to prostate enlargement. There’s also evidence to suggest that saw palmetto extracts are anti-estrogenic in nature. If that is true, bodybuilders who use steroids or testosterone precursors may want to take this supplement.
