If you are new to finding solutions for your hair loss, all
the information available may seem a little confusing with
so many companies claiming they have the best product to
treat hair loss. Perhaps I can put this in a perspective
that's a little easier to understand.
Hair loss solutions fall into two camps, prescription
(propecia) or natural hair loss products. I'm sure you are
aware that there is currently no cure for baldness, but are
you aware that you can effectively treat hair loss. If
caught soon enough, prescription or natural hair loss
solutions are available that can help you keep a full head
of hair most of your life.
The prescription drug Propecia has the approval of the FDA
and the medical establishment behind it. Propecia does
work. Like any hair loss solution, it doesn't work for
everybody. Age certainly plays a part in just how
effective propecia will be. How soon you start your
treatments after noticing that you are losing hair is also
a big factor. Propecia is certainly a good choice for some
people, but not necessarily the best choice for others. The
possible side effects may make this a bad choice for some
people.
You may not be aware that the FDA doesn't test the
effectiveness of natural remedies so even though there is a
lot of testing by scientist in the private sector, the
results are rarely recognized by the FDA or Doctors that
are in that camp as being viable or trust worthy results.
The FDA exist for a good reason and that is to protect you
and I from products that could be harmful or that don't
work.
Natural hair loss solutions do not come under the category
of drugs. However, because of the umbrella effect of that
establishment, they often turn their noises up at the
mounting scientific evidence that natural remedies do in
fact work. Some of the most powerful DHT inhibitors are
found in your natural hair loss remedies.
Research for natural hair loss solutions has accelerated
dramatically in recent years. Scientist are discovering
more and more effective natural compounds that inhibit
5-alpha-reductase (the enzyme that produces DHT), that
block the androgen receptors and stimulate hair growth.
Some of these active ingredients may include Gamma
Linolenic acid (GLA), Alpha Linolenic acid (ALA), Linoleic
acid, Oleic acid, Azaleic acid, Vitamin B6, Zinc, Saw
Palmetto Extract, Beta-Sitosterol and Procyanidin
Oligomers. All of these ingredients are clinically proven
to be effective in the fight against DHT production. In
fact, these are the most powerful inhibitors of 5-alpha
reductase known today, and not only that, they inhibit the
Type II form of the 5-alpha reductase.
The good news is the ingredients that are now being
included in natural hair loss solutions will not cause side
effects. However, some people are allergic to certain
herbs so it is possible from an allergy stand point to have
some reaction to natural hair loss products. No side
effects are a key advantage of the best natural Hair loss
products.
Another advantage of some natural hair loss solutions is
they also have hair growth stimulants in them. It is very
important to inhibit DHT production and at the same time
stimulate hair growth. The really effective natural
baldness cures will include this balanced approach to their
product.
Yes, natural hair loss solutions are effective. It's
important for you to realize that not every product works
the same way for everybody. You may have success with one
product and not have success with another. It's also
important to remember that there is no cure for baldness.
You can only treat the condition and you need to start
early to have maximum impact on reducing any future hair
loss. Another thing to keep in mind; the longer you allow
male or female pattern baldness to progress, the more
expensive it is to get it under control and see results.
