how much on cycle? how much pct?



Posted by: redspy

I take 480mg all year (extract standardized to 85%-95%).



Posted by: Tha Don

i have 450mg caps, no idea what % extracts, i might just run a cap in the morning and a cap before bed?



Posted by: redspy

I take 1 cap at breakfast and 2 before bed. Your plan should be fine.

I take 540mgx3 a day unless I'm on drol, the longer I'm on drol the more my prostate hates me. I get up to 15 caps.

I see it comes in caps (berries) and softgel (extract). Which do you use Mudge?

Since he recommended it to me, I assume he takes the Saw Palmetto Whole Berry Powder (3-8% free fatty acids) from Swanson.

I'd link to it, but their site seems to be down.

Damn, mine is only standardized to 45% fatty acids. I figure I'll take 650 mg twice daily once I cap it.

Just regular old goods, I have seen the extract and I get extracted items in some other stuff (ginkgo biloba) but I dont know the conversion with saw so I dont buy it that way.

Costco's Saw Palmetto is a pretty good deal, $12.50 for 360 softgels (160 mg)



Posted by: Mudge

I saw those, I just didn't know the conversion for potency. I pay $5.49 or something for 540mg x 250 caps.
