The scientific evidence for Saw Palmetto in easing prostate enlargement is quite impressive, placing it almost equal to the commonly prescribed prostate drug, Proscar, a drug with many possible side effects. Saw Palmetto, however, is essentially nontoxic and appears to be free from side effects, with the exception of sometimes causing minor gastrointestinal distress. It also does not interfere negatively with any prescription drugs. Standard dosage is 160 mg twice daily of extract STANDARDIZED to contain 85 to 95 percent fatty acids and sterols. It can also be taken in one daily dose of 320 mg.
