Prostate is a time bomb in the body of each man. Diseases that affect this organ are among the most widely spread ones among men after 45. This is a small gland (approximately as big as a chestnut) that is located under the bladder. This gland can get inflamed and swell, pinching the urethra and blocking the process of urination. In the worst cases there appears adenoma of this gland that grows into a malignant tumor within long years, spreading metastases over other organs. However, even while the diseases is still non-malignant, it can cause serious difficulties. At early stages it can be treated with medications while later it is necessary to resort to surgery. Most often, overgrowth of prostate blocks evacuation of urine from the bladder. This stagnation causes infection and inflammation that leads to development of stones in the bladder. Quite often the issue is aggravated by such very serious conditions as acute urinary retention and kidney failure. Such complications can be fatal without urgent help.

Men should know a lot about such problems and also a lot about the way to avoid them. When the very first symptoms appear (frequent desire to urinate, especially at night, interrupted evacuation of urine that is accompanied with pain, reduction or loss of sexual desire), it is necessary to turn to a doctor at once. If the doctor confirms the diagnosis, it is necessary to start a treatment program immediately. While the disease is still not too aggravated, it makes sense to give attention to natural means that can give a significant effect.

What is saw palmetto? It is one of the most important natural means that can be effective for prostate treatment. Saw palmetto is a name that is used for both small palm trees (serenoa repens) and the extract of their fruits. The extract is used in numerous food supplements that are recommended in prostate treatment. The effect of this extract is based on its influence on enzymes that transform testosterone into dihydrotestosterone, which, in its turn, makes tissues of the gland grow into malignant tumors.

Saw palmetto also causes a soothing, anti-inflammatory and antibacterial effect that reduces and eventually stops inflammatory processes in the entire urinary excretory system. It reduces pains and helps to evacuate the entire volume of urine from the bladder. At the same time, the entire health condition becomes much better because nigh sleep is not interrupted, there is no sense of heaviness and pains in the bladder and so on.
