Navegando por la red, he encontrado una pagina que citando varios estudios sobre el saw palmetto, afirma que no funciona para prevenir la alopecia. En concreto dice esto:
What is interesting about the 5AR inhibition caused by saw palmetto is that it is prostate-specific. Not only does saw palmetto inhibit both types of 5AR in the prostate but not in other tested tissues (epididymis, testes, kidney, skin, and breast) in vitro [20], the active ingredients of saw palmetto concentrate in the prostate as opposed to other tissues after oral administration to rats [21]. This is in line with human studies indicating that saw palmetto extract preferentially reduces prostatic DHT and does not alter plasma DHT or sex hormone levels [9, 22-23]. This explains the lack of side effects in clinical trials. IT ALSO MEANS THAT SAW PALMETTO IS UNLIKELY TO PREVENT HAIR LOSS.
