Describes the complementary therapy, Saw Palmetto.

 



Have you tried any other alternative therapies as well or complementary therapies?

Complementary therapies no not really.

I haven't, there's Saw Palmetto. Okay the guidelines on that from the clinic I went to is that the main marker is the PSA so if you take Saw Palmetto or some of these other products you get a reduction in your PSA but if something is going to affect your PSA you should may be not take it because the move in the PSA is what you're relying on to let you know how you're doing.

How do you spell Saw Palmetto?

Saw Palmetto it's SAW, one word, PALMETTO and it's a product made from a particular kind of palm tree or a fruit of a palm tree or something like that.
