Pygeum
Has anyone had any experience with this one? African tree bark used for prostate problems. Picked some up yesterday and it seems to work as advertised. But, I swear, it seems to have an effect on my PD as well. I've been jumpy all day and I think that I skipped a pill or two. Hardly scientific, I know. But still.... About 90 papers at PubMed but all on prostates.
