Procerin and it's ingredient of Saw Palmetto Berry?!
Question:
Procerin and it's ingredient of Saw Palmetto Berry?
I've been on Procerin before, and it actually worked very well for me, coupled with Minoxidil. But my curiosity got the better of me and I wanted to know how the (natural) ingredient of Saw Palmetto Berry worked. I chatted to a few doctors, and a health food store owner and they didn't support the continued use of Saw Palmetto to treat hair loss, unless I had diagnosed prostate problems (which I don't).
My question is this. How does Saw Palmetto work and what effects does it have, long term?
Procerin says that their product is all natural, and it's without the messy side effects (associated with topical sprays, shampoos and creams). Not to mention I've heard Proscar is actually dangerous? (I would never take chemicals orally that would put me in danger to treat something as trivial as hair loss, but it's still important to me and I won't give up without some fight).
Anyone with natural medicine background or any guys that have been battling hair loss, I would like to hear from you. Additional Details

I'm actually off all medications to treat hair loss until I have further information.... And as soon as I got off it I was back to square 1: Thinning on top and temple region.

:( The health food store owner was exactly right.... Saw Palmetto is only listed as a Prostate support product which it does because it's rich in fatty acids and sterols.
Some people have theorized and tested over time what can help for baldness and hair loss.... unfortunately, nothing has been found that helps everyone. There are some people that may get direct benefits for hair growth from the fatty acids and sterols among other beneficial aspects naturally occurring in Saw Palmetto, though. I did a quick search on Yahoo, and there are some companies testing Saw Palmetto as a possible aid for hair loss because it has some similarities to a drug that is used for hair loss.... but I don't see anything that's been proven yet.
If Saw Palmetto is the primary ingredient in that product, I'd say give it a shot. If it doesn't work for your hair, it should help your Prostate (which is always good for aging men). Good luck! Source(s):
