Saw Palmetto Side Effects and Results
In the past few years, there have been a lot of “hair loss cures” thrown around. Many of these cures have been proven to show results, and many have not. Saw Palmetto is one cure that I have taken the time to investigate, since I get asked about it quite often.
The thing that got me started on it is that it’s all natural, and it not from some genetically engineered super-plant in some place nody has ever heard of. It actually is quite common in the Southeastern United States, and has been used to help people with many ailments besides hair loss for quite a long time. It has been known to effectively treat urinary tract, prostate, and bladder ailments as well as chronic bronchitis. That’s a pretty impressive list for an all-natural substance.
The real question here is whether or not it will effectively treat hair loss. Time after time in clinical studies, over 80% of participants treated with saw palmetto were able to stop or slow hair loss, and most even re-grew some of their hair over time. Most participants were able to regrow hair in about 3 months, although some took up to 6 months to see a change.
Even though not every person that used Saw Palmetto will necessarily see results, the results are significant enough to warrant at least a test for anyone who is curious. Most companies that have Saw Palmetto in their ingredient list are so confident that you will see results that they are willing to offer a money back guarantee. A couple of the companies that I have found to be the most worthwhile are Procerin and Provillus, both of which I have tried and found to be effective for me.
