Is there a natural option for Baldness??

Question: from James

What can you do about hair loss for men?

I have taken Propecia almost 2 years ago for 4 months without any success only to have anxiety problems a year later, which I think was a side effect from the product, since I never had such a problem before or after I stopped taking it.

The other thing was I paid thousand to be seen and to just to get that pill.

There is a very high demand for a natural alternative out there for a well made product that can at least help to slow down the problem.

Is or has Xtend life ever looked into this problem ever or thought about a possible product that could help maybe in the future?

Answer: from Warren

I agree with you. There is certainly a demand for a natural alternative. Propecia is not all it is cracked up to be and there are a lot of potential side effects.

The principle behind Propecia is to reduce the production of dihydrotestosterone which is thought to be a contributor to baldness. But, it does not work for all men. There are several natural alternatives that have a similar action, such as saw palmetto. But that only works for a few as well.

We did some work on this problem a couple of years ago and developed both an oral supplement and a topical lotion and did some testing with a number of volunteers. Although some men reported an improvement I think that the improvement was primarily psychological and minimal at the physical level.

If we had gone to the trouble to test improvement at the laboratory level I am sure we could have measured a result. Then with a bit of clever playing with percentages it could be made to look very successful.

BUT…I couldn’t see enough visible benefits with the naked eye to warrant actually releasing a product to customers.

I am convinced that based on current scientific knowledge that it is not possible to product a natural effective hair restorer.

However, if hair loss is due to poor general health that can be dealt with quite easily and we have plenty of evidence to support this. It is not uncommon for men and women to write saying how their hair loss has slowed after they started taking Total Balance. This is not surprising given that often hair loss is due to a nutrient deficiency. (Some men have said that it reversed their graying, That didn’t work for me, :) )

I personally think that the best solution is a hair transplant. It is safe and effective.

Interestingly did you know that if you take hair from the back of your head and put it in a bald spot that you will never go bald in that area? Quite fascinating really! Neither Propecia or anything else for that matter is not going to change that.

I also understand that technology is advancing to a point in which you may be able to have your own hair grown in a lab and then have it transplanted.

But, in the meantime I think that your best bet is to forget about a lotion or a drug or a supplement specifically to grow hair. Best to focus on your overall general health! This will help ensure that your hair does not recede any faster than your programmed genetic make up.
