What is Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia?
Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) or prostate enlargement is the most common non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate gland in men.
BPH rarely causes symptoms before age 40, but more than half of all men in their 60s and as many as 8 out of 10 men in their 80s have some symptoms of BPH.
The actual factors of BPH are unknown.
However, it has been known that BPH occurs mainly in older men, probably related to aging and hormone. As a person ages, more testosterone will be converted to dihydrotestosterone (DHT), which will lead to high occurrence of BPH.

Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) is a stimulator of prostate gland growth and is responsible for the overproduction of prostate cells, which ultimately gives rise to enlarged prostate. Saw Palmetto Plus M reduces the level of DHT in prostate tissue. This is done by inhibiting the enzyme 5-alpha-reductase that converts testosterone into its active metabolite, DHT. Moreover, Saw Palmetto Plus M prevents DHT hormonal action via blocking its binding to prostate cell
