Is Saw Palmetto Effective In The Treatment Of Wrinkles?

I was watching an infomercial about repairing your skin (wrinkles) from the inside of your body and not just with lotions. This information said to take Saw Palmetto to reduce DHT levels in order to help rebuild structural proteins and cell energy. Also recommended Hydrolyzed collagen and Hydrolaunic acid in pill form and Vit B complex and Vit A. Of course there was a supplement to buy that already had all this, but I had never heard of Saw Palmetto and HAcid in pill form. I was just looking for more info or opinions on these two items.

Hi,

The saw palmetto usage is on a hypothetical basis and no clinical papers or long-term case studies have been available to support the same.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
