New Hair Loss Cures: Ingredients Promise to Stop Hair Loss

by Randal Wade

For years, Hair loss treatments have been used to slow down and, in some cases, reverse thinning hair. While the benefit of natural hair growth treatments is real, doubters continue to dismiss natural hair loss remedies as useless. Recent findings from clinical research exploring the effectiveness of a natural 5-alpha reductase inhibitor (saw palmetto) with anti-inflammatory agents may surprise doubters. Last year, Dermatologists at State University of New York (SUNY), found surprising results connecting scalp inflammation to hair loss. In the world of 'more hair saved is more hair gained,' this finding is a breakthrough. The SUNY lab, directed by Dr. Sridar Chittur, discovered that by joining a DHT inhibitor with anti-inflammatory agents, hairs grow thicker and stronger.

The study also learned that by combining an anti-inflammatory with a DHT blocker, hair follicles have a greater chance of resisting hair shedding. For men and women living with hair loss, adding an anti-inflammatory to their thinning areas in combination with a DHT blocker will enhance the effectiveness of their hair growth routine. This discovery points to the very real indication that natural ingredients are both effective for hair growth and can be improved through combination.

For men and women currently working to treat their thinning hair, the opportunity to improve their results can be achieved by employing a topical solution containing carnitine and thioctic acid. These anti-inflammatory agents need to be added with a 5-alpha reductase inhibitor like saw palmetto to achieve the best results.
