Saw palmetto (Serenoa repens) is an iconic plant of Florida, often dominating the understory of pine flatwoods habitats. Not only is saw palmetto endemic to Florida and the southeastern U.S., but it has also been referred to as a keystone species! A plant as a keystone species? YES!   Keystone Species - a species on which other species in an ecosystem largely depend, such that if it were removed the ecosystem would change drastically.  For most of the year, saw palmetto fronds stand proud and upright showcasing their unique fan-shaped leaves with long, stiff, pointed leaflets and spikey leaf stems. They reflect the sun's rays with their waxy coated, muted green and sometimes yellow leaves. From far away, saw palmetto may seem to serve little benefit to the environment other than taking up a lot of space. Upon closer inspection, saw palmetto create their own little world for numerous wildlife species big and small.      Learn More:   Parsing Through the Palmettos (blog by Lara): https://blogs.ifas.ufl.edu/pinellasco/2018/02/13/palmettos/   Fire Effects Information System – Species: Serenoa repens https://www.fs.usda.gov/database/feis/plants/shrub/serrep/all.html   The Diversity of Insects Visiting Flowers of Saw Palmetto (Arecaceae): https://www.jstor.org/stable/23268495     How You Can Help:   Protect saw palmetto where you can (your yard, speak up if plans to remove at local park/neighborhood)   Report poachers by calling your local non-emergency number or the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission Wildlife Alert Hotline   Plant saw palmetto where you can.

Welcome back to our weekend Cabral HouseCall shows! This is where we answer our community's wellness, weight loss, and anti-aging questions to help people get back on track! Check out today's questions:    Ed: Hi Dr Cabral, For those of us males over 40 years of age, who have prostate enlargement, apart from saw palmetto, do you recommend or know of any Chinese medicine or Chinese herbs that help treat this condition better than saw palmetto or western medicine? Is it possible to shrink the prostate back to normal size with these herbs, in combination with a healthy diet of whole based foods? Thank you for your guidance in advance. Ed PS. Is it true that Red Maca root reduces prostate size, as it did in rats, in one study   Greg: Hi Dr. Cabral, Thank you for all that you do. I listen to your podcasts daily and I have learned so much. What are your thoughts on Electrical Muscle Stimulation? Where they use electrodes to contract muscles at a rapid rate to get the effects of a longer workout in minutes. I would love to hear your insight on if you think this is beneficial and would recommend it. Thank you Greg   Ed: Dear Dr Cabral, Thanks for the great information and help you are providing people out there. I have been dealing with dandruff since childhood and now I'm in my 40's and still struggle with it. Both my mother and brother don't have dandruff, but my father and grand mother on my mother's side also struggled with it. Does that mean its genetic? Though using Head and Shoulders shampoo helps, I hate using it because of the vast chemicals it has. I get build up on my scalp, if I don't use some kind of anti-dandruff shampoo. I have tried to limit sugars and processed foods, but dandruff and build up still occurs, though at a slower rate. Are there vitamins/minerals to help prevent dandruff from re-occurring or is it genetic? Thank you for your time and help. Ed   Ed: Hi Dr Cabral, I came across your great and helpful information from mind-pump podcasts. Thank you. Does DIM power help reduce prostate size, like Saw Palmetto? My elderly mother has osteoporosis, is it true that Maca root helps with this condition as well? Thanks in advance. Ed   Lara: Hi, dr. C! I have a question about vegan Omega3 oil.. It contains 609mg EPA and 1158mg of DHA and 157mg of DPA.. is that a good ratio for a vegan Omega oil? We were checking the ratio of EQUILIFE's (non-vegan) and there's more EPA than DHA.. but they also contain sunflower oil? How come? Thank you for your amazing work, hope you and your family are well..     Thank you for tuning into today's Cabral HouseCall and be sure to check back tomorrow where we answer more of our community's questions!    - - - Show Notes and Resources: StephenCabral.com/2871 - - - Get a FREE Copy of Dr. Cabral's Book: The Rain Barrel Effect - - - Join the Community & Get Your Questions Answered: CabralSupportGroup.com - - - Dr. Cabral's Most Popular At-Home Lab Tests: > Complete Minerals & Metals Test (Test for mineral imbalances & heavy metal toxicity) - - - > Complete Candida, Metabolic & Vitamins Test (Test for 75 biomarkers including yeast & bacterial gut overgrowth, as well as vitamin levels) - - - > Complete Stress, Mood & Metabolism Test (Discover your complete thyroid, adrenal, hormone, vitamin D & insulin levels) - - - > Complete Food Sensitivity Test (Find out your hidden food sensitivities) - - - > Complete Omega-3 & Inflammation Test (Discover your levels of inflammation related to your omega-6 to omega-3 levels) - - - Get Your Question Answered On An Upcoming HouseCall: StephenCabral.com/askcabral - - - Would You Take 30 Seconds To Rate & Review The Cabral Concept?

Many nursery owners have lost small fortunes pursuing a plant they thought sure to be a hit in the marketplace. Danny and Debbie Perkins found success by devoting their resources to a small number of very useful native species. One in particular, the Saw Palmetto, Serenoa repens, a shrub palm of the southeastern U.S., surprised everyone. Well, almost everyone. Danny's dad warned him. Learn how the Perkins have navigated the nursery industry for well over 40 years and built a very good business with native plants.

We talk aimlessly about preparations for the Chargul non-stop summer dance party in Austin, Greyson getting confronted about his alleged “dad bod”, the erotic side effects of Saw Palmetto (as prescribed by Jenny), and whatever else.

On this episode, Dr. Labbe delved deep into the topic of hair loss, which despite not being one of society's most pressing issues, is an important health concern that deserves attention.Here are the key points discussed:The Body's Prioritization: Our bodies, in their wisdom, divert energy and nutrients from hair, skin, and nails to vital organs like the heart, lungs, kidneys, and thyroid in order to optimize overall health.Alopecia and Other Conditions: We explored various reasons for hair loss, such as alopecia, an autoimmune disease that can cause hair loss in patches or completely, which is often linked to thyroid issues like Hashimoto's. Other autoimmune diseases such as lupus and untreated celiac disease can also contribute to hair loss.Role of High Testosterone: PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome) or high testosterone levels can contribute to hair loss. Imbalances like insulin resistance, or an imbalance of estrogen and progesterone, or even high cortisol may be at play.Hormonal Fluctuations: During menopause and perimenopause, fluctuations in hormones may lead to hair loss. Also, the quantity of active thyroid hormone (T3) can have an impact on hair growth.Medications and Their Side Effects: Medications can sometimes cause hair thinning, or other unpleasant side effects, and there's a need for caution in using products like Rogaine whose long-term effects are unknown.Natural Approach: We discussed the benefits of a natural approach to hair loss, focusing on restoring balance to the body's hormones, neurotransmitters, etc.Science-backed Remedies: We discussed a range of remedies such as evening primrose, biotin, green tea, checking iron levels, lysine, arginine, Saw Palmetto, MSM, zinc, and stinging nettles.Importance of Diet: An anti-inflammatory diet filled with healthy fats, quality proteins, and lower glycemic foods can support hair health and aid in thyroid conversion.Stress Management: High stress levels and consequent high cortisol can contribute to hair loss. We highlighted the importance of finding stress relief activities that work for you.Positive Mindset: The power of positive thinking and its impact on the body's response was also stressed.Remember, reversing thyroid hair loss takes time, usually six to nine months, and it's usually the last thing to return when your body is regaining balance. But with time, patience, and the right approach, you should be able to see baby hairs coming back gradually.For more details or help with your thyroid issues, consider setting up a complimentary clarity call to discuss solutions to these complex symptoms.Resources:FEELING LOUSY IS NOT "JUST PART OF GETTING OLDER."

Huberman Lab Podcast Notes Key Takeaways Different hairs on your body have different lengths of growth phases (for example, hair on the head will grow for 2-8 years, and hair on the eyebrows will fall out every few months) The rate of hair growth is relatively stable across hair – what differs is the length of the growth phaseMicroneedling procedures, PRP injections, and Minoxidil all center around the general idea of increasing blood flow, increasing oxygen and delivery of nutrients, or increasing inflammation just enough locally to set off a cascade of regrowthCombination treatments that combine a mechanical stimulus (such as microneedling) with chemical stimulus (such as minoxidil) will always be better than either alone But be realistic, it's unlikely to grow a full head of hair again if you are baldPeople are highly individual in response and side effects to hair growth treatments – start with minimum effective dose and be patient with experimentation timeAndrogens (especially DHT) are potent inhibitors of IGF-1 and cyclic AMP which stimulate hair growthRead the full notes @ podcastnotes.orgIn this episode, I explain the biology of hair, hair growth, why hair growth slows and what cause hair to stop growing and/or “fall out.” I discuss the essential role of hair stem cells and other supporting biological factors for healthy hair growth. Then I describe various approaches (mechanical and chemical) to slow hair loss by increasing blood flow to hair stem cells, including minoxidil, tadalafil, PRP, microneedling, Botox and ketoconazole treatments. I also discuss how age-related hormone changes cause hair loss and explain the effectiveness of treatments such as caffeine, saw palmetto, growth hormone, finasteride and dutasteride. For all hair growth options, I describe potential side effects, how soon to expect results and the amount of hair regrowth to expect and I highlight effective combination treatments for hair regrowth even in hair “dead” (bald) zones. For many listeners, thinning, brittle hair, or pattern baldness are a source of anxiety and stress. This episode explains the mechanisms underlying hair regrowth tools and the science behind them so that you can evaluate potential treatments and associated side-effect profiles and select the best one(s) for you.

See all the Healthcasts at https://www.biobalancehealth.com/healthcast-blog/ What are the factors that stimulate or inhibit your own Testosterone (T) production? There are foods, supplements and activities that stimulate testosterone production, Just as there are foods, supplements and activities that lower your internal T production. Today I would like to address the factors that increase the production of testosterone in both men and women.   However, there are limitations on these nonmedical pathways to a higher testosterone level: 1. One is your age. If you are a woman and menopausal then there are no foods or lifestyle changes that will stimulate your ovary to come back to life and make testosterone.  Women have a finite lifespan for their production of estradiol and testosterone, and it ends at menopause.  Estrogens can be made in the fat and the adrenal but pure testosterone is only made in the ovary, and when the ovaries “die” that's the end of testosterone production. 2. Men make testosterone throughout their lives, but their testes become resistant to stimulation around age 55, but they can become resistant as early as age 40, and then nothing other than T replacement will increase testosterone levels. 3. A person's body has a genetically driven sensitivity to the hormone Testosterone. Your heritage or the origin of your ancestors determine how you will “feel” with a particular blood level of testosterone. This has been studied by looking at the genetics of the T receptor on all the cells of your body. Receptors are more sensitive the closer you get to the equator in the western hemisphere, and the receptors are less sensitive if your ancestors' origin was closer to the north and south poles than if they were from around the equator.  A certain level of testosterone doesn't have the same effect testosterone on both groups.  In other words, those genes from around the equator need less testosterone to get the same effect as those people from extreme high and low latitudes. We are all different and our genes have an effect on our treatment. If you are a menopausal woman or over 40 then the manipulations of diet and exercise will be less likely to increase your testosterone production. There are foods and activities that inherently stimulate your internal testosterone production if you are a woman under 40 or a man under 50.  After that you generally must replace your T to improve your symptoms of low Testosterone. Eating fewer fast foods and more of a well-balanced Mediterranean diet with fresh foods can optimize your testosterone production. High protein diets with grass fed animal foods and plenty of fish will optimize your testosterone production. Cholesterol containing foods provide the necessary building blocks for Testosterone in the body. Getting to your ideal weight will increase the free Testosterone in your blood stream making you feel your testosterone more. Getting 7-8 hours of sleep a night will increase the production of T, because T production is stimulated at night when you sleep. Sleeping in a dark room stimulates the production of Testosterone, Growth hormone (muscle development) and Melatonin (deep sleep). Daily moderate Exercise (not necessarily running a marathon) will stimulate your production of Testosterone. Supplements can stimulate production of Testosterone. There are several supplements targeted to stimulate testosterone that contain carnitine, inositol, choline. Protein in the diet provides the building blocks of muscle and testosterone and allow the activities and foods that stimulate the production of T have something to build with. People with a low protein diet (no eggs, fish, beans, milk products or meat) have a more difficult time making T. Most combination supplements that are touted on TV to increase your T are herbs and supplements that decrease estrogens like DIM, or supplements that increase your T by providing the hormones that are precursors to T like Pregnenalone and DHEA. Herb Fenugreek 500 mg increases free T production Decrease in DHT with the herb Saw Palmetto can decrease the production of DHT and increase free Testosterone, however it is important not to decrease the DHT too much because it is important in sex drive and building muscle. Ashwagandha decreases cortisol, and cortisol binding protein that inactivates T, therefore it can increase free T. If you are taking T supplementation, then don't take this supplement because it can cause you to not feel your free T. Zinc piccolate and Arginine improves prostate function and health, therefore your volume of ejaculate increases, and free testosterone is improved as well Lastly supplements that increase your erectile function by increasing Nitric Oxide e.g.  Neo 40.

As a 20-year salon owner, I converse every day with women, their experiences of the aging process, and how to measure, support and transform the mid-life modern-day approach to aging with a functional medicine and energy psychology approach.As women age, their hormones take off on a roller coaster, often exacerbating signs of aging - which leaves us turning to a 13 billion dollar industry for short-term answers, but the solutions run deeper than this..Today we're talking about ONE major complaint: thinning hair.What Can Women Do When They Start to See Thinner Hair?Sometimes hair loss is associated with high androgens (other sex hormones), but more commonly, the root cause is low iron, thyroid hormone imbalance, insulin resistance and one common missing link hidden deep in labwork, ….and that is your IRON.Rapid hair loss can be an early sign of a hemoglobin issue, and is often first diagnosed in a beauty salon.In addition to thinning and shedding, your hair can become coarse, dry, and easily tangled.In one study, 90 percent of women with thinning hair were deficient in iron and the amino acid lysine. Lysine helps transport iron, which is essential for many metabolic processesWhat do you do about it?  Here's what you'll discover:Iron deficiency, anemia, and hair loss.What blood tests to request from your doctorCommon symptoms of iron deficiencySuggested supplements and topical Evoq Root Revival Hair Loss ActivatorIn Conclusion:Realistically, you want to consume bioavailable iron.And a  bioavailable form of iron is going to be best suited through eating red meat.Keep in mind that Ferritin is cumulative in your bloodstream and will take time to increase, so you don't actually see the benefits of ferritin or the iron absorption until your ferritin is incrementally coming up.By taking glandulars, you're tricking your body into thinking that your ferritin is higher than it is earlier on thus improving your overall hair growth sooner.I personally am on glandular supplements, and it's is incredibly helpful.Proven Topical Therapy:    The most impactful topical product that I offer my clients that I see an ROI on within 3-6 months, which is the natural growth cycle.The Evoq Root Revival Scalp and Hair Activator.  This restorative tonic helps to rejuvenate the scalp and follicle​,​ add body and volume​, leaving​ the appearance of thicker, fuller, healthier hair.____Key Benefits:-Enhance hair growth, leaving hair feeling thicker and fuller-Lightweight spray, no oily residue and easy to style with.-Reduces inflammation-Create an energetic frequency for healing and balance-Amino Acids to strengthen, thicken, and favor hair growth, decreasing breakage-Lengthen the growing phase and shorten the fallout stage-Restore healthy hair growth cycles-Increase scalp circulation bringing nutrition deeper into hair folliclesA Proven Natural Solution 2x's More Powerful than Drug Based ProductsYour scalp is one of the fastest-growing tissues in the body so it deserves a whole lotta love. Thinning hair happens when the hair stem cells shrink or stay asleep in the scalp.This reviving tonic helps as a molecular switch to turn on new hair growth. It strengthens and stimulates the scalp to ignite new hair growth and prevent hair loss by densifying hair follicles. It also prolongs the hair's growth phase.Once women hit the age of 40, the diameter of the hair shaft begins to shrink, leaving you with thinner hair and less volume.Follicles continue to shrink as we age, and nearly 40% of women experience some degree of hair loss by age 60. Since hair growth is hormonally driven, many women see these changes coincide pregnancy, perimenopause and menopause.Additionally, as we age, the keratin production cycle gets shorter, so hairs don't fully grow. But there are a myriad of other lifestyle and environmental factors that directly contribute to hair loss for women of all ages. Learn more here. Key IngredientsDihydroquercetin Glucoside (DHQG) - Is a molecule derived from the larch tree found to carry out multiple functions in hair growth.EGCG2 (Epigallocatechin gallate) - Reduces the inflammatory state of the scalp and also minimizes aging of the skin.Zinc & Glycine - Allow an improvement of growth and strengthening of the hair.Apigenin - A bioflavonoid that acts as an antioxidant. Research has shown that apigenin stimulates hair growth.Biotinoyl Tripeptide-1 - An amino-peptide that actives lengthen the growth phase, strengthen, and energize circulation to the scalp for optimal nutrient delivery.  Oleanolic Acid - A natural component of many plants. It has an antioxidant and antimicrobial effects. It's often used in hair growth products together with Biotinoyl Tripeptide-1 and Apigenin.Saw Palmetto + Glycoproteins - These are linked protein and polysaccharide (sugar) that thicken and strengthen while Saw Palmetto soothes the root and studies show it decreases hormonal imbalances that cause thinning hair.Favorite Supplement on Amazon:  Glandular: Ancestral Supplements Grass Fed Beef Liver (Desiccated) — Natural Iron, Vitamin A, B12 for EnergyVisit Evoq Beauty for Health Hair Solutions Here.

Low Iron Diet [15:15] Shawn says: Hey Robb and Nicki, About 18 months ago I found out I have hemochromatosis. I've been getting blood letting since and have my iron under 50 now. My question is about diet. Obviously my doctor doesn't want me eating alot of red meat, organ meat, or high iron seafoods. Am I going to start getting deficient in vitamins and nutrients (B12 etc.) Is there anything I can do diet wise to try and replace the vitamins and nutrients? Can you do a carnivore or Paleo diet without eating alot of red meat? Any thoughts would be appreciated. I'm confused as the best way to optimize my specific dietary needs. Thank you so much for the podcast and everything you two do. Shawn 2. Using Milk for Calorie Surplus to Gain Weight [19:01] Andy says: Hi Robb and Nicki, I'm a new Healthy Rebellion member and love it. I'm 42, 5'6" and weigh 140. Followed Robb since 5+ years of crossfit in my mid-30s. I have maybe 5 pounds of fat I could lose around my waste. Eat low carb and zero sugar...mostly meat/eggs, fruit and nuts. No "comorbidities". I don't have a big appetite and my body defaults to 135-140 lbs. My parents are also really small. I've been thinking a lot about the importance of strength/muscle mass and aging. My dad has dropped probably 20 lbs and all of his muscle from early 60s to mid 70s. He's not physically active. Over the next few years I would like to get my weight up to a lean 155-160 and maintain at that weight as long as possible. If I starting aging at 135 lbs then I'm going to be in trouble. I've begun a Starting Strength style linear progression with the basic barbell lifts. Lift 3x per week and add weight to the bar each time. I have a real hard time eating enough meat to maintain the calorie surplus it's going to take to gain the weight. I don't want to do it via carbs (rice/pasta/etc). I digest whole milk fine. What are your thoughts on drinking 24-32 oz of milk per day to gain weight? Does pasteurized vs raw matter? Thoughts on long-term consumption? I'll probably have to keep it up to keep the weight on.  Any other suggestions to add 300-500 calories to my diet besides "suck it up" and eat more? Thanks. Andy 3. Will Soy Based Bath Cleaner Affect My Backsquat? [23:17] Kie says: Hi Robb and Nicki, Your podcast is great, it's changed the way I live my life for the better. Quick question if I may. My wife wants to switch to a soy based bath cleaner because it's good for the environment. Are the Xenoestrogens and Phytoestrogens leeched into my bathwater from this product going to affect my backsquat progress? Thanks! Kie (Tokyo, Japan) http://www.iherb.com/Bio-Kleen-Soy-Cream-Cleaner-Kitchen-and-Bath-32-fl-oz-946-ml/23967 4. Saw Palmetto Supplement - Hoax Or Real Deal? [26:56] Jared says: Hey Robb, I understand you get a lot of questions thrown your way, and often times most of my questions are answered from listening to the podcast or doing a little digging. But, every once in a while I get a question that causes me to ponder, "I wonder what Robb's opinion is?" A friend asked me if I know anything about Saw Palmetto, as he noticed it in a supplement called Ageless Male. I didn't know anything, but did some Googling and noticed that it's touted for its prostate and hormonal benefits (including testosterone support and improved muscle strength). Seems just as effective as deer antler velvet to me. Anyway, what feedback could you provide as to how beneficial this could be for my aging 50 year old friend? Anything is greatly appreciated. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11337315/ 5.

Also, is there any information on how keto or carnivore can help PMR? One last super random question, what do you guys think about mouth wash? Yay or Nay? Thanks for all of your help.

See all the Healthcasts at https://www.biobalancehealth.com/healthcast-blog/ FINASTERIDE is a name of a medication that is commonly used in both dermatology and urology.  It is an oral enzyme inhibitor that is used to decrease hair loss and to treat prostate enlargement.  Finasteride is called a 5-alpha reductase inhibitor (5-ARI). It inhibits the enzyme that makes DHT out of free- testosterone.   DHT is not a bad hormone, it is only a problem for us if it is too high or too low.  DHT is one of the hormones that you need in the right quantity for normal sexuality, normal brain function, normal muscle mass and strength et al, but it is not healthy to have too much which can cause male pattern hair loss, facial hair on women, hair loss at the temples in women, and prostate enlargement and trouble urinating in men. Because men have a high incidence of hair loss, and prostate enlargement as they age, dermatologists, urologists and family docs start these men on Finasteride/Propecia/Proscar, but don't think about the side effects or how the drug works. It is sometimes even started for genetic hair loss, which is not successfully treated with Finasteride. What is the function of 5-alpha reductase inhibitor? 5-alpha reductase is vital to the development of male characteristics such as facial hair, deep voice, muscle growth, prostate enlargement male libido and prevention of ED. What are finasteride and it's brother medication, Dutasteride used to treat? Male Pattern hair loss (Androgenic alopecia) in men and postmenopausal women Benign Prostate enlargement (BPH) High DHT causing acne and facial hair in postmenopausal women (off label and only after spironolactone is found to not be enough in women only)   ****Women who are of child-bearing age should not take this drug! What are the names of the two drugs available that are 5-alpha reductase inhibitors?  Finasteride® and Dutasteride® These medications decrease the amount of circulating DHT by 70-98%.  Therefore, when it is used to decrease hair loss and shrink an enlarged prostate, all of the DHT is decreased which results in blocking all the positive actions of DHT such as libido, energy, muscle maintenance, Penile length, erectile function, and male pattern body hair. These male characteristics are blunted for the sake of a thick head of hair and to shrink the prostate.  It takes a much higher testosterone blood level and free testosterone to maintain male characteristics when on these meds. In some men there is no amount of 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors is safe. Side Effects of 5-alph-reductase inhibitors:  Loss Sexual Dysfunction (Overall rate of sexual dysfunction 3.7%) Decreased ejaculatory volume-1.5-3.7% Ejaculation Disorders-0.2-0.8% of libido ED/Impotence 5-8% of the users have this Infertility 34% decreased sperm count, and 14.5% reduced sperm volume after 26 weeks of use. Normalization of seminal quality usually returns after discontinuation of finasteride Depression and Suicide Breast tissue dysfunction-0.9-2.5% (men)   https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/drugsatfda_docs/label/2010/020180s037lbl.pdf, accessed January 25, 2021     POST FINASTERIDE SYNDROME:  SOMETIMES THE SIDE EFFECTS ARE PERMANENT AND CAN ONLY BE TREATED BY TESTOSTERONE REPLACEMENT OVER TIME….THIS IS A LIFE LONG PROCESS OF REGROWING TESTOSTERONE RECEPTOR SITES.

Have you heard that black cohosh is “for menopause”? Or that red clover is a “natural estrogen replacement”? Or that saw palmetto (Serenoa repens) is “for men” or “for BPH”?Herbs are not gendered, and they’re not “for” conditions. They have qualities and actions, and they act in context – the context of each individual body. Herbs act on particular types of tissue, and it turns out that in the reproductive system, the various forms and functions mask a deeper similarity, a more fundamental identity. Saw palmetto doesn’t check your chromosomes or your estrogen/testosterone ratio before it goes to work in your system: it acts on the pelvic floor organs, regardless of their shape.In this episode we deconstruct saw palmetto’s famous ability to help out with BPH, widening our scope to consider other patterns of pelvic stagnation and atrophy this herb can help us correct. We even look outside the reproductive system entirely, noting historical precedent for this herb as a digestive tonic and respiratory expectorant. Historical traditions, contemporary science, and our own direct experiences with the herb all provide helpful points of contact which help us draw a much fuller picture of the herb than “good for BPH”.Saw palmetto is a complex herb, with actions that can seem – at first glance – contradictory. Taking this in-the-round view of the herb helps us see it more clearly and resolve some confusion. This lesson goes beyond this one herb, though – we always need to be aware of our culture’s tendency for reductionism and putting herbs in neat boxes.Mentioned in this episode:Sabal in The History of the Vegetable Drugs of the U.S.P. by John Uri Lloyd (1911)Serenoa – Saw Palmetto in King’s American Dispensatory by Harvey Wickes Felter & John Uri Lloyd (1898)Serenoa in The Eclectic Materia Medica, Pharmacology and Therapeutics by Harvey Wickes Felter (1922)Serenoa: Eclectic materia medica for Saw Palmetto – this includes text from Willam Bloyer (writing in the Eclectic Medical Journal, 1896), with commentary from Paul Bergner at the North American Institute of Medical Herbalism (1997)Saw Palmetto in A Modern Herbal by M.

Prostatitis is inflammation of the prostate gland that can affect PSA and cause symptoms such as urinary frequency and urgency, fever, and pelvic pain. Prostatitis can be difficult to identify and hard to treat. This episode discusses diagnosing prostatitis, treating prostatitis, and how it can affect prostate cancer treatment decisions. Dr. Scholz: [00:03] We’re guiding you to treatment success and avoiding prostate cancer pitfalls. I’m your host, Dr. Mark Scholz. Liz: [00:09] And I’m your cohost, Liz Graves. Dr. Scholz: [00:13] Welcome to the PROSTATE PROS podcast. Liz: [00:16] Prostatitis is inflammation of the prostate, which can have a huge negative impact on quality of life. This episode, we’re going to talk about diagnosing prostatitis, treating prostatitis, and how it can affect prostate cancer treatment decisions. Dr. Scholz: [00:31] The real reason this topic comes up is because PSA goes up in men that have inflammation in their prostate, which is what we’re calling prostatitis. There are many causes, we’re going to go into that, but the confusing factor is that we’re using PSA to diagnose prostate cancer, to monitor prostate cancer for treatment effect, and for relapse. If inflammation in the prostate intervenes and causes the PSA to go up, everyone gets frightened about the possibility of prostate cancer being out of control. So this podcast will cover trying to make a distinction between a high PSA from prostatitis and a high PSA from prostate cancer. Liz: [01:17] So prostatitis is inflammation of the prostate, and there can actually be no known cause of this, or it can be due to bacterial infection and it can also manifest in many different ways. Dr. Scholz: [01:31] There’s so much confusion about what really is prostatitis. It may be sort of an autoimmune phenomenon, the way people get asthma or eczema on their skin, some sort of over activity of the immune system, but it’s quite common and it’s often asymptomatic. So that means that the PSA goes up, but men may not be feeling any urinary irritation. At the other end of the spectrum, of course you have the people that have real discomfort and pain with urination and are getting up at night a lot. When men have these symptoms, it doesn’t necessarily mean that it is prostatitis, it could be a large prostate, it could be an irritable bladder, it could be a urinary tract infection, but prostatitis certainly is on the list of possibilities. Liz: [02:19] So you mentioned asymptomatic prostatitis, which still has an effect on PSA. Can you distinguish a rise in PSA from prostatitis from a rise from prostate cancer? Dr. Scholz: [02:32] Actually, PSA is very nonspecific. So when we see a PSA rise, we have to start doing all kinds of tests. The most popular one in the community of course, is to do a prostate biopsy. Our policy has been to do MRI testing, and there are certain blood tests and urine tests like OPKO 4K and SelectMDx that can help sniff out whether prostate cancer is really the problem. But many times, we are left with an ambiguous situation; an elevated PSA without a clear cause. And that’s when people start calling it prostatitis. Liz: [03:12] For people who do have symptoms, there are two or three different types. There’s acute bacterial, chronic bacterial, and chronic prostatitis. Dr. Scholz: [03:23] Years past when this problem was encountered, the reflex reaction was just to give some antibiotics. If the PSA would drop after a couple of weeks of antibiotics, then it must be prostatitis. The problem with that is that the antibiotics have potential bad effects. Secondly, they’re not always effective because the many types of prostatitis are not bacterial. Thirdly, the problem with prostatitis is it usually isn’t permanently cured with antibiotics, you get a temporary remission, but then you’re back to having to do antibiotics again and again. Now, these days we don’t usually jump on people with antibiotics, but some doctors still like to use this approach. Liz: [04:10] This seems like a difficult condition to manage. What other medicines, other than antibiotics do you use? Dr. Scholz: [04:18] So sometimes we just wait and keep checking the PSA and the inflammation will tend to die down on its own. There are things that are popular over the counter products like Saw Palmetto, anti-inflammatories that you can pick up at the pharmacy like Aleve or Advil. Sometimes a course of anti-inflammatories will cause a PSA decline and encourage us that the underlying problem is related to prostatitis as cancer won’t respond to an anti-inflammatory. Liz: [04:52] So if someone goes on anti-inflammatories and their PSA declines, and they just have prostatitis and no prostate cancer, should their PSA be zero? Dr. Scholz: [05:03] So men have to always calculate the normal PSA by looking at the size of the prostate. This is usually determined with an MRI or an ultrasound. The ten-to-one ratio is that if the prostate’s 40 CCS in size, a normal PSA will be around four. So PSAs will typically run in the one to eight range, but there’s so much variability in prostate size. A normal PSA can vary from individual to individual. Liz: [05:33] PSA is one way to possibly diagnose prostatitis. What other ways do you figure out that this is the problem? Dr. Scholz: [05:42] Well you mentioned before that there’s certain men that get bacterial infections and they’re uncomfortable: they have soreness in their pelvis, they have pain with urination. If it gets out of hand, it can even cause a fever. So diagnosing prostatitis when there are symptoms like that is really easy. The problem is that 90% of the time, perhaps the prostatitis is asymptomatic and we’re dealing with PSA’s running high over periods of time. This becomes super relevant in men that are on active surveillance because we check PSA frequently in these people and creates real concern that if the PSA is running high, that maybe we’re missing some cancer somewhere. Liz: [06:22] So there are a lot of symptoms with prostatitis, but these symptoms can also just occur in regular, healthy, aging men. Is telling the difference between those two different people difficult? Dr. Scholz: [06:36] What you’re referring to is the fact that our aging bladder gets more irritable and you can get up at night more frequently, also prostate glands get bigger and create blockage and all kinds of inconveniences related to the urinary tract. That is a real diagnostic dilemma. There are all kinds of tests to try and sort out which of these issues are going on like imaging tests and urinary flow tests. People should usually get a urinary culture and make sure there’s no infection. So these methodologies are all used to try and sort out what is really going on. After it’s all said and done, if we don’t have a clear answer, usually the term prostatitis is applied to the situation. Liz: [07:20] Another thing that I’ve read about is tracking your PSA, and if your PSA is fluctuating pretty frequently, that might be a sign of prostatitis. Dr. Scholz: [07:31] Exactly. Inflammation comes and goes. It’s not a steady, smooth, growth, the way something such as cancer might occur. So the ups and downs when you have men with PSAs that are running high, that suddenly dropped, we know that PSA levels don’t drop in people with cancer. So that’s another strong indication that prostatitis may be the cause of the PSA elevation. Liz: [07:58] Okay, Dr. Scholz, let’s say you have someone who is suffering with symptoms and you’ve tried antibiotics, you’ve tried anti-inflammatories, and none of it really seems to be providing relief. What do you do next? Dr. Scholz: [08:12] It’s a tough, tough situation. Consulting an expert is the next step. Sometimes mild doses of Proscar or Avodart to try and shrink the prostate will have some benefit, but there is no satisfying one treatment for prostatitis. Some men have to suffer chronically with only partially resolved symptoms. It’s a very controversial area in terms of what proper treatment is because no one treatment is all that satisfying. Liz: [08:46] Some men who are newly diagnosed with prostate cancer also have prostatitis. What kind of treatment options can these men look at that don’t inflame the prostate? Dr. Scholz: [08:57] You can go forward with just about any of the common treatments. This is one potential argument for surgery, because if the inflamed prostate is a big problem, removing it surgically should improve symptoms. Sadly, that’s not universally the case. Sometimes the discomfort that people are having turned out in retrospect to not be from the prostate and men have operations and still have urinary difficulties and issues. There’ve been some that have said that radiation shouldn’t be done because radiation causes a transient increase in inflammation. When the prostate gland is radiated, getting people through that tough period three to six to eight weeks after the radiation can be challenging sometimes, but after the radiation starts to grab hold, the prostatitis symptoms oftentimes will become less and less over time. Hormone therapy will typically improve urinary symptoms in some men and others, for reasons we don’t know, it seems to make the problem worse. When I’m talking about the problem, I’m talking about people waking up at night or having to urinate frequently. When I first started giving hormone therapy to men with prostate cancer, my hope was that since we’re shrinking the prostate that urinary symptoms would universally improve, but that’s not always the case. Why that is, is not clearly understood. There’s a lot going on in the prostate with all these symptoms that we’d still don’t completely understand. Liz: [10:26] One interesting thing about radiation is that a couple months after the radiation or even up to a few years, you can have a delayed PSA bounce that isn’t cancerous, but it’s due to inflammation of the prostate. Dr. Scholz: [10:42] It is frequent and this is more frequent in people that have seed implant radiation, so-called brachytherapy. You’re absolutely correct, people can have a normal PSA after radiation and everything’s looking fine with a PSA less than one. Then, all of a sudden, the PSA is rising up to two, three, or four. The suspicion, of course, is that the cancer is coming back. In the old days, which really means just last year, we had to just sit this out and hope that it would go away and watch the PSA go up and reassure people that this type of thing can happen and maybe it isn’t cancer. With these new PSMA PET scans, which are very accurate, we can have people get scanned when their PSA goes above one to detect if there is any cancer causing a problem and make that distinction between delayed PSA inflammation from radiation induced prostatitis, the so-called PSA bump, versus the cancer having a recurrence. Liz: [11:45] You mentioned this is a really frequent occurrence. When PSAs go up, patients really tend to panic. How do you talk about this with them? Dr. Scholz: [11:55] Well, it is a common enough thing that there’s plenty of research out there showing that oftentimes a PSA would go right back down after a few months, two to six months, and remain low for the rest of their lives. Unfortunately, I’ve seen patients treated perhaps by doctors that don’t see as much prostate cancer where they assume that it’s a relapse and put them on hormone therapy. Hormone therapy will always cause the PSA to go down. This validates the idea that there was a cancer that now is under treatment. This is a really tragic thing because hormone therapy has a lot of side effects and it certainly shouldn’t be used to treat a PSA bump. Liz: [12:39] After radiation, the policy is to get PSA tested every three months for two years, then every six months for three years, and annually after that. If the PSA rises over 0.5, you should get the new PSMA PET scan. Dr. Scholz: [12:58] That’s right, Liz, this technology to finally be able to sort out whether it’s a PSA bump or a cancer recurrence is incredibly valuable. Liz: [13:08] Prostatitis is a really ambiguous situation and a lot of men have symptoms. Googling symptoms can lead to men believing they’re from prostate cancer. However, localized prostate cancer never has symptoms, so it’s clear these symptoms are from some other condition. Dr. Scholz: [13:28] Exactly right. So often we were unable to use the word never in the world of treating humans. You know, we said, well, there’s one of this and one of that, but it really is almost universally true that early stage prostate cancer is free of symptoms. People that have an ache here or a pain there and they’re newly diagnosed with a PSA in the 10 to 20 range, they’re wondering if their cancer has spread, should be greatly reassured that it’s almost impossible for prostate cancer to cause any symptoms at these early stages. However, prostatitis and other issues are very common. They certainly do cause symptoms. Thankfully prostatitis doesn’t turn into cancer. They are separate problems and one causes symptoms and the other doesn’t. Liz: [14:19] This is a great reminder to take things slow when you get back a high PSA. In a future episode, we’re going to talk about men who haven’t been diagnosed with prostate cancer, but who have high PSAs and what the next steps are they should take.

In this podcast, Dr. Berg discussed Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH), it is when the prostate is enlarging. The problem with this condition is, it is going to obstruct your urine flow and the urine is going to back up in the kidney and the liver that could create toxicity. This condition is really affected by the hormones. Certain hormones have an anabolic effect on the body which means that hormones have the ability to make things grow. Type of Anabolic Hormone Involved: 1. Insulin - Do healthy ketosis and intermittent fasting 2. IGF-1 or Insulin-like growth factor - it is similar to insulin but also similar to growth hormones. To make this hormone under control, you would want to make sure you don't consume any dairy products and avoid consuming excessive amounts of protein. 3. Testosterone – It can also convert to a more powerful form of testosterone called DHT. Some of the most powerful inhibitors of these enzymes help improve enlarge prostate. Saw Palmetto and Stinging Nettle Root 4. Estrogen – One of the more potent influences of an enlarged prostate in addition to insulin. Cruciferous vegetables and DIM (very powerful enzyme inhibitor) Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio: Dr. Berg, 51 years of age is a chiropractor who specializes in weight loss through nutritional & natural methods.

Welcome back to our weekend Cabral HouseCall shows! This is where we answer our community's wellness, weight loss, and anti-aging questions to help people get back on track! Check out today's questions:  James: Hi,I’m currently dealing with stomach pains, loose stool, unable to lose weight (not overweight but trying to drop a couple pounds). If taken a stool test through Genova Labs and got the data showing a bunch of different imbalances and potential issues.Is there anyway you could analyze that data and give direction? Currently frustrated with my progress and not feeling good.Thank you, James Michelle: I have a question that I can not seem to find any information on. I have a permanent retainer that needs to has a broken bracket. I have 3 choices 1. remove 2. have another permanent put in place or 3. invisalign retainer that I would wear at night. I would like to keep my teeth in place therefore considering option 2 and 3. What direction hve you given patients on this? Jenny: Hi Dr. Cabral,Thank you so much for all that you do for your clients and the community. I started following your podcasts last April, read your book, and did my first detox in June. Fast forward to today, I have never missed a podcast, am down 30+ lbs and lowered my cholesterol by 85 points. I feel terrific, have tons of energy and my life has changed so much for the better, all thanks to you. I will forever be one of your biggest cheerleaders and continue to brag about you!!I use the DNS powder in my daily smoothie and follow some of your favorite recipes and have rarely gone a day without one in more than 6 months. I have been adding a scoop of the Advanced Collagen Support for the past couple of months. The other day I came across an ad for Beverly Hills MD. I know you don't discredit other companies' products, but do you know anything about this one or the ingredients it contains? It claims to "help smooth, tighten, and firm skin from the inside out." In addition to containing collagen, it states it contains Saw Palmetto and Hyaluronic Acid. Do you know what those are and what they do? I'm hesitant to try products from the internet and at this point I mainly only trust you and the Equilibrium Nutrition products. I'm just a little curious about these.Thank you,Jenny Les: Hello Dr. Stephan Cabral, I had a question regarding type 1 diabetes. My boyfriend has type 1 diabetes and every time his blow sugar is low he will reach for cookies or candy. I know that there must be a healthier option to help him. I've searched online and found that many recommend soda which is definitely something I don't consider healthy.Hoping you can help with suggesting healthier options.Thank you so much! Huge fan and truly appreciate what you do! Jamie: What is the truth about asparagus and it being a catalyst for transporting cancerous cells or free radicals around the body? I presume if someone has been diagnosed with Cancer of any sort they should not eat Asparagus if this is true. What is your understanding and clarification much appreciated! thank you so so much for all you do, I have almost finished listening to the entire back catalogue of podcasts about 100 to go! Really appreciate your work and thank you again for helping change my life and approach to health - i am in turn trying to pay forward the limited knowledge i now have too. thank you. Jamie: Thank you again for everything you do an dall the hard work your team puts in . Apologies as i know this question has come up indifferent guises before but i couldn't really find an all encompassing answer. We have a 6 month old daughter and she has had a skin alergy test which came up negative for everything (good news). Having listened to the podcsat for some time i hear you on the dairy and having cut out dairy from my diet i now feel a million times better. When i do now eat dairy i can feel a reaction but i can live with it and occasionally for a cheat meal its worth the trade off.My question is should we really be stopping our daughter from having any dairy even so young because surely it must have some benefits otherwise why have humans used it for so long? If we switch her to all non dairy product so young is she likely to have worse reactions when she is older? Also so many say the calcium content is not as high in the diary alternatives and the side of the packs (crude level i compared dairy milk to the nut milks) and this seems to corroborate this observation - can you shed light on what does provide enough calcium for children from birth up to adulthood and how you have treated dairy or dairy alternatives for your children from birth until now?thank you again so much.

Miami-based sculptor Robert Chambers lived in Everglades National Park for one month in 2018, as a Fellow in the Artist in Residence in Everglades program. In the darkness outside his studio one night, the artist tripped on the roots of an ancient plant: The Saw Palmetto (in Latin, Serenoa repens), That’s when a hidden world began opening up to him. In fact, the small palms are everywhere you look, native to the subtropical wilderness. The leaves are woven into the thatched roofs of indigenous pavilions you’ll find in Big Cypress, a wetlands preserve north of the national park. In some parts of the world, saw palmetto berries are cherished for their healing properties. We meet Robert Chambers to explore his exhibition titled Serepens at the AIRIE Nest, an art gallery inside the Visitor Center. AIRIE curator Deborah Mitchell and two environmental scientists who’ve inspired his new body of work are here, too. Botanist Walter Abrahamson has been researching the saw palmetto for forty years. Hilary Swain directs the Archbold Biological Station, a center dedicated to research and conservation in the South Florida watershed.

“Surgical training showed me there are usually several successful approaches to every problem and that one will best fit an individual at any particular time. To do this, I’ve learned a lot of alternative methods and do you know – for some conditions, the “minority opinion” works best for the majority of patients!” A quote from DR. ALAN MCDANIEL […]

Prostate Health, one of the reasons men develop BPH, benign prostate hyperplasia is because of too much estrogen and an imbalance between testosterone and estrogen. There are high quality herbs and minerals that can prevent excess estrogen from enlarging the prostate, which is detailed in this video.   The prostate is a gland that surrounds the urethra. We store urine in the bladder and when the prostate swells it makes it difficult to urinate. In aging men, a common question asked by their physician is how many times do they get up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom because they cannot completely empty their bladder.   Estrogen can induce BPH, benign prostate hypertrophy or hyperplasia, which means new cells. It is important to have some estrogen in the body as mentioned in the video Estrogen and Men, but there is a dangerous effect of having too much estrogen.   Dr. Eugene Shippen, author of Estrogen the Culprit wrote that excess estrogen will actually cause the prostate to grow and create more cells or hyperplasia. That is estrogen's job during the first two weeks of a menstrual cycle in a woman: to create more tissue in the uterus to get ready for the egg if it becomes fertilized and implants during pregnancy.   If men don't properly balance testosterone and estrogen (50:1 ratio) with nutrients as mentioned in the Estrogen in Men video, they could end up with BPH.   Triton Nutrition has a great product called Prostate Shield and it is called that because it protects the prostate with high quality herbs. It's been know for a long time that Saw Palmetto, Pygeum, Zinc and other minerals as well that support the prostate. Triton Nutrition has received a large amount of feedback from men stating that their prostate has shrunken in size and their urine flow is better.   If a man has a large amount of estrogen then Prostate Shield may not be enough. They may need Estro Shield with DIM. DIM is naturally obtained from cruciferous vegetables like broccoli, cauliflower and cabbage and you can learn more about that product in the video Estrogen in Men.   Zinc is also important for a man to take in the chelated form like Triton Nutrition's Zinc Glycinate. Zinc is needed for the biosynthesis of testosterone and to prevent the conversion of testosterone to estrogen by inhibiting the aromatase enzyme. This is also detailed in the Estrogen in Men video.   A good maintenance dose of Prostate Health is to take Prostate Shield, one capsule twice a day. For men with more severe BPH, Robert has recommended up to 3 capsules twice a day with 1-2 capsules of the Estro Shield with DIM and 3 capsules of the Zinc Glycinate.   by Robert Seik, PharmD

Interview with Kevin T. McVary, MD, author of Effect of Increasing Doses of Saw Palmetto Extract on Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms: A Randomized Trial

Immune Support While most people believe that a stronger immune system is a better immune system, the truth is that what we really want is a strong and balanced immune system. A person suffering from allergies has an unbalanced immune system as does a person suffering from an autoimmune disease. Increasing the strength of the immune system without first balancing it can make symptoms worse than before. Beta sitosterol has been shown to both support an increase in immune function and balance immune function at the same time. While saw palmetto is well known for its beneficial effects on the prostate, it also has a long history of being used for female disorders. Herbalists have used saw palmetto to support women's bodies in resolving issues associated fertility, milk flow, libido, menstrual irregularities, fluid retention and pelvic inflammatory conditions for centuries.
