Customer Reviews of Pygeum 100 mg 120 Caps
Customer Review: COST EFFECTIVE STANDARDIZED PRODUCT WORKS WELL WITH SAW PALMETTO & NETTLE
Summary: 5 Stars
IN A NUTSHELL: WORKS WELL WITH SAW PALMETTO & NETTLE FOR BPH
This standardized extract yields 6.5 mg of phytosterols from 100 mg of extract, teamed with 400 mg of the whole herb. The result is the most economical standardized Pygeum on the market. When teamed up with Nettle Root and Standardized Saw Palmetto this Standardized Pygeum helps to relieve Benign prostatic hyperplasia [BPH].
The men in our family actually use this exact product, though I would, as usual, prefer Nature's Way if it weren't for the price difference.
ABOUT PYGEUM:
It is well tolerated and their are no reports of toxicity or drug interactions. Virtually all the research literature that has been published states;
-----*- 1-] You must take Pygeum for 3-6 months to see benefits,
-----*- 2]- It works best with Nettle Root and Saw Palmetto,
-----*- 3]- Only the standardized extract yielding at least 6-7 mg of phytosterols at least twice a day will have a therapeutic effect [or 12-15 mg 1x daily].
ABOUT BRANDS:
This Swanson brand standardized product is a great deal, plus it contains 400 mg of the whole herb in addition to 100 mg of the standardized extract [6.5% phytosterols].
I would buy the "Nature's Way" brand if it were close in price because it is in soft-gels and includes the following in each dose
The following list is for serving size of 2 softgels [NATURE'S WAY]
- - - Primary Ingredients Amount USRDA
- - - Calcium 24 mg 2%
- - - Copper, amino acid chelate 3 mg 150%
- - - Lecithin 12 mg 0%
- - - Pygeum, dried extract 100 mg [13% STEROLS] 0%
- - - Selenium, l-selenomethione 100 mcg 143%

- - - Zinc Citrate 30 mg 200%
Other Ingredients
Carob, extract, Gelatin, Pumpkin Seed Oil, Sodium Copper Chlorophyllin, Titanium Dioxide, Water
"Vitamin Shoppe" and "Now" brands also offer quality standardized pygeum extracts, and they both cost less than Nature's Way. Swanson, and the Vitamin Shoppe, both retail "Nature's Way" products as well as their own house brands and offer low prices and credible service.
BOTTOM LINE:
Pygeum is essentially an herbal adjunct therapy for Benign prostatic hyperplasia [BPH]. Therefore, this is something that women don't need to take for themselves, but may still need to know about.
