In Classical Herbology, Jing is your constitutional essence—the deep energy reserve you are born with. Aging, environmental friction, and overwork "leak" this energy. Saw Palmetto is categorized as a Jing Tonic because it is dense, oily, and nutritive. It doesn't force expenditure (spending energy); it nourishes the deep tissues (saving and storing energy). It is the "Seal" on the battery.

Your hormones are built from cholesterol and fats. A low-fat environment is often a low-hormone environment. Saw Palmetto provides a unique profile of free fatty acids (Capric, Caprylic, Lauric) that the body uses as high-grade construction material for the endocrine system. It is "Raw Material" for the master builder.

We prefer the term Pathway Support. Calling it a "blocker" implies it stops a natural process. Instead, think of it as a traffic controller. It guides hormonal traffic down the "Road of Vitality" (healthy metabolism) rather than letting it divert down the "Road of Decline" (undesirable metabolites). It keeps the flow moving in the right direction.

Negative. While famous for prostate health, Saw Palmetto is a "Universal Endocrine Tonic." It supports the metabolic pathways of hormones that both men and women possess. For women, it is a premier ally for supporting hair density and skin clarity.

Physics. The active compounds in Saw Palmetto (Sterols and Fatty Acids) are lipids. They do not dissolve in water. A tea would taste nice but carry almost zero medicinal payload. Alcohol is the required solvent to extract the medicine.

They are the perfect "Builder" and "Manager" combo. Pine Pollen provides the raw fuel (nutrients and androgens). Saw Palmetto supports the efficient management and conversion of that fuel. Taken together, they cover both supply and distribution.
