How Serenoa Repens works
Serenoa Repens works by inhibiting the enzyme 5-alpha reductase, reducing the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone linked to prostate enlargement. Serenoa Repens also has anti-inflammatory properties that help reduce inflammation in the prostate tissue.
