The Vitamin Shoppe
Overview
The Saw Palmetto & Pygeum Complex contains ingredients known to support prostate health, but the dosage of Pygeum is significantly below the clinically effective range. Saw Palmetto Extract is adequately dosed.
The Good
Contains Saw Palmetto, which is adequately dosed and well-researched for prostate health.
Generally safe and well-tolerated ingredients.
May offer mild support for urinary and prostate symptoms.
The Bad
Pygeum is significantly underdosed, potentially limiting its effectiveness.
Plant Phytosterols are underdosed, diminishing their potential benefit.
Presence of Calcium, Lecithin, and Lipase is unlikely to contribute meaningfully to prostate health at these doses.
