Though there are a plethora of standardized Pygeum products to pick from, “NATURE’S WAY” is a “pharmaceutical licensed manufacturing facility” which helps to make this Standardized Pygeum soft-gels, about the best money can buy!

When teamed up with Nettle Root and Standardized Saw Palmetto this Standardized Pygeum helps to relieve Benign prostatic hyperplasia [BPH].

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:

I would buy the “Nature’s Way” brand if it were close in price to the Swanson brand or Now, 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]

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.

Swanson, especially, has a terrific standardized Pygeum for a very low price under its, “Swanson Superior Herbs” label. In fact, you get 120 standardized capsules [6.5 mg phytosterols per] for about $4.50, which is by far the lowest price and best value I know of.

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.
