Saw Palmetto Complex provides the highest quality standardized saw palmetto extract available together with other active nutrients that complement its activity. In addition to the recommended 320 mg of palmetto extract this formulation provides 120 mg of betasitosterol the major active principle in pygeum. Whole pygeum extract is prepared with solvents so it was excluded and only the beta sitosterol is used. It also includes a generous portion of pumpkin seed oil (from the required species from Eastern Europe), minerals and vitamin B6.
