My sister recommended that I take Saw Palmetto to help me combat my hair loss. How much should a woman be taking every day to prevent losing any more hair? Is 1000 mg too much? Please help!

Experts recommend between 160-320 mg, daily, for men. However, it should be noted that saw palmetto is not FDA approved, and its efficacy is as yet unclear. In women, especially, there seem to be few positive results, and the correct dosage amount is unknown.
However, so far researchers have found no significant effects of taking up to 960mg of Saw Palmetto.
