Inside Hardero - Every Ingredient Explained
Zinc selenium men's health capsules with saw palmetto, nettle root and lycopene. Here's the nutritional science behind each component of the Hardero formula.
Saw Palmetto Extract (Berry) - 320 mg
Saw palmetto supplement Australia users will recognise this botanical as one of the most researched plant extracts in men's wellness. Derived from the berries of Serenoa repens, saw palmetto has been traditionally used in everyday men's wellness routines for generations. It is included in Hardero as a botanical complement to the mineral base.
The EMA's Committee on Herbal Medicinal Products has assessed saw palmetto extracts and acknowledges their traditional use. Saw palmetto is not a medicine and does not treat any medical condition.
