Saw palmetto is not only the most used, but also it is the least expensive and has no side effects. For many people saw palmetto is the first-line treatment. Saw palmetto is chiefly used as a diuretic and to tone the bladder by supporting normal urinary flow. Regular use of saw palmetto supports normal urinary elimination, especially during the night. Saw Palmetto is not "safer" nor does it cause "fewer side effects". People report just as many, if not more side effects, from excessive unrelenting hair shedding, to hormonally related side effects like acne and testicle pain, to emotionally related side effects and even estrogen related side effects like breast growth.

Saw palmetto is a member of the fan palms. Saw palmetto is a small, stout evergreen shrub supported by a large underground trunk. Saw palmetto is effective in nearly 90% of patients after six weeks of use, while Proscar is effective in less than 50% of patients. In addition, Proscar may take up to six months to achieve its full effect. Saw palmetto is less likely than finasteride to cause difficulty in getting an erection.

Saw palmetto berry also tones the urethra, and it may be used to uphold the healthy function of the thyroid gland and urinary system. Saw palmetto is an American medicinal plant. It is a small woody member of the palm family that occurs from the coast of South Carolina to Georgia (especially southern Georgia), west to coastal Alabama, south throughout Florida. Saw palmetto is a low-growing palm tree found in the West Indies and in coastal regions of the southeastern United States. The tree grows 6 to 10 feet in height and has a crown of large leaves.

Saw palmetto is a palm that grows mainly along the East coast of the United States. There are large plantations in southern part of the coast, Florida. Saw Palmetto is believed to inhibit the actions of testosterone on the prostate, which causes its enlargement and subsequent interference with urinary flow. VitaPurity Saw Palmetto Standardized Extract helps improve urinary flow, and reduces the frequency and urgency of urination in men with BPH. Saw palmetto is a dwarf plant that grows wild throughout Florida and Georgia. The stem of the palm frond is serrated like a saw, hence its name.
