I've realized that the only place I've ever heard of stinging nettle for nbe was in this forum - everywhere else I only hear about saw palmetto. I know that it's supposed to be considered as an alternative..........
I wanted to know if anyone remembers where this idea of stinging nettle comes from? or where they read that it was good for nbe?????
thanks!!!!

Both Nettle root and SP reduce testosterone levels. As too high levels are detrimental for NBE this is the reason why people use SP and for the same reasons you can use Nettle root instead.
Both SP and Nettle root are used for mens prostate health because of their anti androgenic effects, SP is just the one that someone for one reason or another used first for NBE, but it really doesn't make a difference which one you take. The positive for Nettle root is that it does not interfere with BCP whereas SP may.

Some are also saying that the SP can contribute to weight gain where as the SN does not.

thanks!!!!!!!!
