Background and Use
Saw Palmetto was traditionally used by Native Americans and in the 19th Century, it was used by naturopaths for numerous genitourinary or endocrine-related conditions. This extensively studied herb has been approved by the German expert panel, the Commission E, for mild-to-moderate BPH ("stage I-II"). In Italy, herbal therapy represents approximately half of treatment for BPH, whereas in Germany and Austria, it is the principal treatment. In the United States, saw palmetto is the most commonly used non-prescription therapy for lower urinary tract symptoms in BPH.
Nettle root is not as popular as Saw Palmetto, but is often used in combination products. It is popular in Europe. Early clinical trials are promising.
Pygeum originates from Africa where it has been used medicinally for thousands of years by traditional healers have to treat bladder and urination disorders, particularly symptoms associated with Benign Prostatic hypertrophy (BPH), which is an enlarged prostate. Historically, the bark was powdered and used to make a tea, which was taken by mouth for these conditions.
