🧪 Formulation Notes

NOW Saw Palmetto Extract is a nutritional supplement for the support of healthy prostate function. Studies indicate that saw palmetto extract may help to support healthy urinary flow and prostate function. Zinc has been included in the formula because it is an essential mineral that is especially important for endocrine function and overall reproductive health. Pumpkin seed oil has been used as a base for this product, contributing essential fatty acids and phytosterols that are important for men's health.

Saw palmetto, pumpkin seed oil and zinc are therefore especially helpful for the maintenance of healthy reproductive function in men.

Natural color variation may occur in this product.
