Saw Palmetto supplement manufacturing

The berry extract used in men’s prostate formulas and DHT-aware hair gummies, usually from a 20:1 concentrate.

Saw palmetto berry extract is the botanical behind men’s prostate products and, increasingly, hair-support gummies that want a DHT-related story. Gummies carry 25 to 100 mg of a 20:1 concentrate, while softgels use 160 to 320 mg of oil extract. HBM manufactures saw palmetto into gummies and liquids in Tampa Bay, FL, confirming extract ratio against the supplier COA.

Role in men’s and hair formulas

Saw palmetto sits in two HBM stock formulas: the Men’s Vitality L-Arginine gummy, where it is part of a six-botanical blend, and the Hair, Skin & Nails gummy, where 50 mg of 20:1 extract joins biotin and dandelion root. It gives a hair or men’s label a recognizable, searched-for botanical.

Dosing and extract type

Saw palmetto is a fatty-acid-rich extract. Softgel products use 160 to 320 mg of lipophilic extract; gummies and powders use a dried 20:1 concentrate at 25 to 100 mg so the herbal equivalent reads in the hundreds of milligrams. HBM labels the concentrate and its herbal equivalent so the claim is clear.

Formats and pairings

Saw palmetto works in gummies, softgels and liquids. It is paired with biotin and dandelion root for hair, and with L-arginine, ginseng and zinc for men’s vitality. HBM makes it at a gummy MOQ of 300,000 units and a liquid MOQ of 3,000 units or 150L.
