Glossary
Saw Palmetto
Saw palmetto is a shrub native to America that produces large, dark berries about the size of olives. The berries were a food source for Native Americans, who soon learned to use them for medicinal purposes as well.
Saw palmetto berries were traditionally used to treat frequent urination during the night, as well as impotence, decreased libido, and prostate problems. Today, saw palmetto berries are widely used to treat BPH (benign prostatic hyperplasia), a condition in which the prostate gland becomes enlarged, causing symptoms like pain and frequent urination.
Saw palmetto berries are also thought to be useful as a digestive aid, an appetite stimulant, a diuretic, a sedative and a general tonic. In addition, some people consider the herb to be an aphrodisiac.
