Super Saw Palmetto/Nettle Root Formula with Beta-Sitosterol
60 softgels
Item Catalog Number: 01408

A number of normal biological events in aging men affect prostate function and structure. Saw palmetto has been shown to interfere with DHT activity in the prostate, inhibit alpha-adrenergic receptor activity (to support normal urinary flow), and help control inflammatory actions in the prostate gland.1-3

Super Saw Palmetto/Nettle Root with Beta-Sitosterol combines the saw palmetto extract with a methanolic nettle root extract and boron to support a healthy prostate.4-17

This saw palmetto extract has been standardized to contain 85% free fatty acids and sterols. Aqueous 20% methanolic stinging nettle extract contains no residual methane. The phytosterol complex contains a natural ratio of concentrated plant sterols derived from vegetable and seed oils such as soybean, rapeseed, sunflower seed, and corn.

DeepExtract™ is a patented, ultra high pressure CO2 extraction technology that recovers the high molecular weight compounds such as naturally occurring carotenoids that are left behind by typical low pressure CO2 extractions. This state-of-the-art extraction technology insures the most desirable and complete bioactive extract profile available that most closely reflects the composition of premium, mature saw palmetto berries.
