How is sellenium or saw palmetto helpful in bodybuilding?
Posted by: Dr. Pain
Selenium is most useful in cancer prevention at very low doses, 200 mcg, toxic at high doses, 800 mcg. (it also does many other things)
Saw palmetto is a prostate protective, blocking DHT's (a metabolite of Testosterone) interaction with 5-alpha reductase and the prospect of BPH (benign prostatic hyperplasia) However it also blocks some Test receptors, up to 42% according to Micheal Mooney...and Nettles would be a better choice!
Neither is directly useful in BB.......many use Saw erroneously as a "prostate protective" when taking prohormones or AS.
