Saw Palmetto andHair LossMale or female pattern baldness is aresult of testosterone conversion to DHTDihydrotestosterone acting on hairfollicles. Men with higher levels oftestosterone will naturally suffer fromreceding hairlines as DHT productionincreases and causes gradual shrinkingof the follicle. Saw palmetto extract works on acellular level, protecting hair folliclesfrom being damaged by DHT. Theprotective effect of DHT blocking meansthat hair already falling out will stay and

regain the follicle thickness. Some ofthis hair will be so fine that areas appearalmost bald, but as long as the folliclestill exists it can be helped by blockingDHT at the follicle. Hair will be fullerand thicker when it regrows. “I’ve been taking saw palmetto foryears now. I started because of aprostate problem that causedurination difficulties. My doctorrecommended that I take sawpalmetto, because he said it workas well if not better than thepharmaceutical drugs. Within twoweeks my prostate and urinationproblems were gone, not just

helped a little, they were gone. For the man over 40 who isalready seeing some hair loss,graying, and the start of prostateissues, saw palmetto results speakfor themselves”

Expect ResultsPeople taking saw palmetto whole herbor extract and using a saw palmettoshampoos notice results fast, oftenwithin a week they will start to seerenewed hair growth.When it comes to saw palmetto and hairloss, it is now proven to have greatbenefit in men and women. Sawpalmetto definitely is effective whentreating people for androgenic alopecia,but it isn’t the coming miracle pill toeveryone.To receive the fullest benefits, it isimportant to continue taking sawpalmetto extract, because this herb

blocks DHT production. It does notstop testosterone production.The protective effects on the hair follicleare only active as long as saw palmettoextract is in your system and working toshield you from hair loss

Saw PalmettoHair Loss DosageReported dosages have not beenstandardized,so common dosages are not scientific,but rather what each person determines.

Saw PalmettoBERRYEXTRACTSTANDARDIZEDClinical results from benign prostratehyperplasia were designed around320mg dose BERRY EXTRACT daily. Increased doses of 480 mg of extractwere not found to any more effective.Although I take the herb below, the berryextract is preferred. Extract is moreexpensive, because it is standardized toa higher percentage of fatty acids that arethe same used in original testing.

Some labels state the product isstandardized, but it must say that the fattyacids are 85% or higher to be true to theoriginal study. The NOW Saw Palmetto Extract isstandardized to 85% to 95% fatty acids. Think of the extract as moreconcentrated than the whole herb. Youcan take 1 softgel to get the same effectas 4 capsules of the herbs. In this case,more is not necessarily better.

Saw PalmettoWHOLE HERBWhole Herb formulas require 1000mgup to 2000mg to obtain the same benefitas the berry extract. Many alleged hair loss cures on themarket today use equivalents of 1500 mgWHOLE HERB that equals about 320mgof berry extract. I use this exact Sundown Saw Palmettobelow. It is not standardized.It is viable herb and consistent for myuse, because it corrects prostate andurine flow problems corrected within

hours to one day. I now take it each day up to 2000mg(Iam a big guy) for about two weeks andthen stop taking it for about anotherweek. Again, this dosage is based uponwhat I know works for me by symptomrelief and my height and size. The theory is that since it works well forprostate and urinary issues, then it isactive and works on hair follicles. Ihave been blessed with good hair, evenso, it does seem thicker and stronger.Also, I have never had a side-effect withsaw palmetto.

www.m8u.org/whole-herb www.m8u.org/extract Your body weight can affect the amount

you will need. Heavier people shoulduse higher ends of recommendations. Itcan be difficult to determine what theexact dosage is when Saw Palmettobottles have dosing amounts that arevery different. Determine your correct dosage with thehelp of your doctor.

TopicalApplicationsSaw palmetto can be used in a few waysindependently or together to acceleratehair regrowth.Whole Herbs and Extract - Take SawPalmetto in herbal tincture form, orcapsules and tablets.

www.m8u.org/whole-herb www.m8u.org/extractSee: Saw Palmetto Hair Loss Dosageabove for difference between extract andwhole herb Shampoo Follicle Cleansers - Massagescalp and clean hair with Saw Palmettoshampoo. I do not recommendconditioners. If you must use aconditioner for overly dry hair, avoidmassaging it to the scalp. Conditionersreplace oils in the hair that have beenstripped by harsh shampoos andtreatments.

www.m8u.org/hair-loss-shampoo Salves and Creams - Scalp and haircreams.There is a variety of creams on themarket for the scalp, but they are not as

popular as shampoos and herb extracts. Products added to creams often aren’tnecessary to leave on the scalp or theycan clog pores and follicles, which isjust what we don’t want. Some creamsare greasy and often overpriced. Do notbuy on price alone when it comes tocreams. The cosmetic industry is builton overpricing to give the appearance ofa superior product. Click on this link tosee different types: http://www.m8u.org/creamI recommend that you use your choice ofextract or whole herb and follow upwith a Saw Palmetto shampoo a fewtimes during the week. See the Sawpalmetto hair loss program below.

Isolated FactorsBeta-sitosterol is an isolated, primaryphytosterol in Saw Palmetto and otherherbs and plants. It is similar tocholesterol and may lower bloodcholesterol by blocking dietarycholesterol from entering the bloodsystem. Beta-sitosterol has manybenefits from reducing risk of coronaryheart disease to boosting the immunesystem to helping with AIDS, andrelieving gallstones, asthma, migraines,enlarged prostate and possiblytuberculosis.Beta-sitosterol is available in capsuleand tablet form to help reverse

androgentic hair loss. It operates in thesame way by limiting the DHT availablein and around the hair follicle.Recommended dosing achieved fromcurrent scientific studies is different fordifferent requirements.For BPH (benign prostatic hyperplasia)60 to 130mg split up among the day into3 dosesFor cholesterol problems 800mg to 6grams total per day divided into 3 or 4doses and given before meals.

Saw PalmettoScams and FraudSaw Palmetto use is escalating fast, andas more uses that are beneficial areproven, the scammers, frauds andthieves take advantage quickly. Thefollowing exposed product frauds areproven by the Prostate Pill Reportstudies.Hair loss scams with saw palmetto areon the rise. However, saw palmettoused for prostate problems as scamshave been stealing from mostly menabove the age of 50 for years nettingmillions of dollars yearly.

High Market Ineffective Products Viagrexx – operated from China theherbal supplement in a rectangular boxprovides 10 useless pills for $49. Postal Service Direct Mail Campaigns– Companies that send direct mail knowhow expensive that advertising methodcan be. That is why they give you everyopportunity to find them through theinternet, legitimate phone numbers, andcompany information with ready accessto receive product payment. Fraudcompanies do not provide thisinformation, although a phone numberdoes exist with automation or liveperson who can take your credit card

number. Scam ads are changing tobecome more sophisticated and create amore legitimate ad.Zero Ingredient Scams – puttinguseless corn starch in compressedtablets or substituting other cheap,ineffective, but similar lookingsubstances can make scammers muchmoney. People with ethics this low haveno problem telling you the product meetsevery standard and guideline and isdoctor approved.The Prostate Formula by Real HealthLabs and Antiiva are two products in theProstate Pill Report sold with theprimary ingredient being saw palmetto.

How to Use theSaw PalmettoHair LossProgramONE – Don’t GetScammedStay with what you know. Stay withwhat others recommend and then test.I gave you the products I use above. You don’t have to use it, but I find iteffective and it hasn’t given me anynegative side effects. Clicking that link

and buying the product does give me asmall remuneration. Even so, that’swhat I use and have used before I putthose links on the page. You don’t haveto buy from here. It’s just a very convenient place to get itnow to test for yourself quickly. That’sis what I want you to do.

TWO – Use TestThe faster you start, the faster you willsee results or know what not to use. Keep it that simple.Here is the test. Hair growth is too slowto test a lot of products and then waitbefore you ttest another, so use theproducts that help men with prostateproblems. Saw palmetto clearly helps men withprostate and urine flow. More than 80%of men in studies have had tremendouslynoticeable benefit. A guy who can’turinate one day and then flows like arace horse within a day or two surenotices this benefit.

The products that give that result haveactive saw palmetto. That’s what youuse and that’ why I recommended theproducts I use above. I was that guy andso were a few older friends whoobtained the same benefit from the sameproducts I use.

THREE – ProductHair WatchUse the product from TWO above for 3to 6 months to watch how your hairthickens and regrows. Changefrequently occurs within the first weekor two. I strongly recommend that you takephotos. We all have an easy timeforgetting just how a little growth makesa major difference when that littlegrowth did not exist just 30 days ago. Take the photos. You’ll be able to provehow it works.

Send your photos and what you used tome: maxgrowshair@gmail.comI’ll send you the results of my hair studyand which products readers liked thebest.

EXTRA HAIRGROWTH SUPPORTI recommend the saw palmetto shampoo,because you’re stopping DHTproduction from inside and out. Theshampoos include additional hair lossproducts that will help you regrow thefollicle thicker and faster.At least 2x per week, massage into thescalp apple cider vinegar. It helps cleanout clogged pours and follicles and theanticeptic properties kill bacteria. Rinse and shampoo regularly afterward. I also recommend a once a month shortdetox program. Your overall health andwell-being goes far to give you a healthy

head of hair. The apple cider vinegardiet book by Alice Michaels isexcellent, because it also works to getrid of stress in your environment. It’snot expensive, but sometimes she doeshave specials. (See: DETOX below)

10 Top HairGrowth TipsLearn To HandleStressAs stressful as the truth can be, stress isimplicated in causing trouble ineverything from hair loss, hairthinning, and graying hair tosubstantial weight gain, high bloodpressure, uncontrolled blood sugar,cancer, acne, ulcers …. and moremedical problems! A little stress in lifeis a good thing. A little stress is the

gentle push back in life that makes uswant to try to better ourselves. All theproblems of life may not get solved, butit is possible to learn to react to stressmore harmoniously with those aroundyou.

SleepStudies show that 7 to 9 hours of sleepactually help reduce hair loss.

ExerciseAdd 90 minutes of aerobic exercise eachweek. Walking counts, but getting yourheart rate up to where it is a littledifficult keeping a conversation is key.Lifting weights adds muscle that burnscalories. In men, added muscletranslates to more testosterone. Be sureto take saw palmetto.Today exercise has been called thefountain of youth. Exercise moves theblood and increases oxygenation to thebody, but it does a lot more. Animportant system in the body that needsmuscle movement to do its job is thelymph system. This parallel system to

the blood system gets its primarymovement not by the heart pumping, butby moving arms and legs around. Thelymph system helps take away excessfluids and toxins from tissues. Swellingin the legs and feet can often bealleviated just by walking.

Eat a Cleaner DietI’ve known a lot of bodybuilders andhealth advocates in my life. Only TWOwere able to maintain ultra clean dietsfor extended periods. One would eat aregimented diet all month long and thenallow himself to eat one huge slice ofcheesecake as a reward. It worked forhim. I would like to be so committed anddisciplined. The successfulbodybuilders I knew, those who reachedtheir physical goals, but also theirmental, emotional and spiritual goals, allsaid the same thing to me. Eightypercent of a bodybuilders success is inthe diet.

Clean up your diet so you can live abetter quality life, and hopefully, livewith thicker, fuller hair.

ProteinThe hair follicle is more than 90%protein. High quality protein isnecessary especially after low protein orpoor diets.

Eat FreshFresh fruits and vegetables,unprocessed, give your hair morenutrition to grow. Poor diets with highamounts of sugars, carbohydrates andfats don't give proper nutrtition for hairregrowth.

DetoxA detox is a short diet, maybe 2 or 3days, sometimes a week, when you giveyourself excellent food in limitedamounts. That’s my definition. I hadfriends who were more ambitious bygoing on a juice fast. Although that typeof diet may be healthy, when you’repriming yourself to be healthy enough toregrow hair, protein is an importantnutrient to keep in the diet. Detoxing andeating protein isn’t always in the samediet program. The best short term detox I like is AliceMicheal’s Apple Cider Vinegar Detox. Not only does she create an easy diet to

follow, but she includes the otherelements of living a more stress free lifewhile fitting exercise into your day.

Vitamins,Minerals andSpecial NutritionEating good nutritious food can bedifficult. The nutrients below are at thetop of the list for hair growth. Vitamin A, B-complex, especially biotinand vitamin B6 and inositolCopper, Iron, Silica, Magnesium, andZincOmega-3 Fatty Acids

Scalp Massageand CleansingSome hair loss is simply clogged hairfollicles. Too much use of poorshampoos and conditioners or productsdesigned to make hair look better, butdoes nothing to help the scalp, often clogor irritate pours and hair follicles. Noteveryone has this problem, but those thatdo will see a marked increase in hairregrowth within 3 months of justchanging the hair care regimen.Scalp massages bring blood to thesurface with more nutrition that feedsgrowing hair.

I recommend using Apple cider vinegar,which is considered a miracle tonic topeople in the natural foods arena. See: Alice Michael’s book below.Add apple cider vinegar to your diet anduse small amounts as a hair rinse andscalp massage to keep waxy buildupsand hair care products from slowing orstopping hair growth. In addition, applecider vinegar is an antiseptic that keepsyour scalp healthy and reduces chancesof clogged pores and follicles frombacteria.

Prostate enlargement canresult in sexual dysfunction and stoppedand slowed urination.Research has shown that saw palmettohas the same effects as thepharmaceutical drug, Finasteride intreating patients for hair loss and withbenign prostate enlargement.

Effect on SexualFunctionSaw Palmetto does not have the samenegative effects on sexual function thatpharmaceutical drugs do. Pharmaceutical creams and pills useharsh chemicals to stop hair loss.These medications create difficult sexualside effects in men that make hair loss orfrustration an unfair tradeoff. Pharmaceutical drugs like finasterideand tamsulosin lower the sex drive,create impotence and make orgasmdifficult to impossible to attain, because

t h e y inhibit the production oftestosterone. Bodybuilders who use steroids areworking during and after their steroidcycle against the balance of reducingtestosterone and increasing estrogen.This is also the reason many chronicbodybuilder steroid users are bald. Are you a man who is losing his hair andyou are concerned about sexual sideeffects?Saw palmetto stops hair loss by leavingtestosterone levels as they are, so sawpalmetto does not impact your sex driveor testosterone production likepharmaceutical medications.
