Saw Palmetto - Long Term Use Risky?????

FLA_Cyster · 10-08-2003, 11:54 PM

I found this in another post:

"I tried Saw Palmetto and . . . . . . . am now concerned about the virulent cancer strains associated with long-term use"

Does anyone know if there really is a cancer risk associated with long term use? I had never heard of this before. Can anyone provide some links to articles or research on this subject?

I have tried researching it on the internet, but all that I can find is articles on prostate cancer, since it is also recommended for use in men with prostrate troubles.

Can anyone help?

Since there are already responses in the original thread, and the other one that you've started in the hair forum, I'm closing this thread to keep all of the information in one place. The thread that you've started in the hair forum is here.
