Customer Reviews of Nature's Way - Saw Palmetto Berries, 585 mg, 180 capsules
Customer Review: NATURE'S WAY MAKES EXCELLENT STANDARDIZED SAW PALMETTO -- BUT THIS ISN'T STANDARDIZED
Summary: 5 Stars
THIS 1-2% FREE FATTY ACID DOESN'T COMPARE TO THE 85-95% NEEDED FOR A THERAPEUTIC EFFECT
FIRST THOUGHT IS THE ABOVE IS A DEAL BREAKER - NEED STD PRODUCT:
-----*- NATURE'S WAY Q & A AS IT APPEARS AT THEIR WEBSITE TODAY
Product Q&A
1 -----*- Have any studies been conducted on Saw Palmetto?
There are over 20 well controlled studies published concerning the uses and effects of Saw Palmetto and Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) or swollen prostate gland.
2-----*- Is there a guaranteed potency?
The encapsulated Saw Palmetto berries have no guaranteed potency. ProstActive is Nature's Way standardized extract of Saw Palmetto berries. This product is commonly called Saw Palmetto or Saw Palmetto extract.
3-----*- How do the encapsulated berries compare with ProstActive Saw Palmetto?
Saw Palmetto berries in the whole form contain approximately 1%-2% oil or active ingredient. This oil contains fatty acids and sterols that have been closely studied and have shown positive results. The berries are dried and milled and then encapsulated.
MY TAKE ON THIS: FYI - "NATURE'S WAY" IS MY FAVORITE BRAND
Saw Palmetto really needs to be standardized for at least 85% fatty acids. All of the research, that has indictated its use, to be beneficial, has come from saw palmetto standardized from 85-95% fatty acids. Doses of 3-8% fatty acids simply have little or no therapeutic value, just like Hawthorn that is not standardized. Also, like Hawthorn, Saw Palmetto is used for the treatment of a serious ailment, BPH [Benign prostatic hyperplasia], and therefore should be treated with precision and with the care of a qualified physician.
I should say that I purchase most of my herbal and supplemental products from Swanson, but not this one, and for the reasons stated above.
SAM'S CLUB actually carries a standardized product [85% fatty acids] and you get 350 softgels for under $11.! If price is not your biggest concern, consider either "Nature's Way" or "Now" standardized Saw Palmetto. Swanson sells the "Nature's Way" product and other vendors here at Amazon carry the "Now" brand as well.
PLEASE NOTE: - NATURE'S WAY is a "pharmaceutical licensed manufacturing facility".
