Do natural hair loss remedies have any real relevance?

Written by Richard Mitchell


The effectiveness of modern hair loss treatments is clear for all to see, but many people simply prefer not to use strong chemicals or non-natural substances.

If you fall into this category, does this mean you'll just have to accept an ever-decreasing head of hair? The answer to this is an unequivocal NO!

Many natural hair loss remedies, both traditional and contemporary, have shown their worth in reducing and reversing hair loss. They are also perceived as being free from side effects and even deliver additional health benefits.

Why then, don't we hear a lot more about these natural hair loss remedies? Simply because claims of cures cannot be made without FDA approval, and obtainingrepparttar FDA seal of approval involves lengthy and expensive scientific research that only major companies can afford. Evenrepparttar 114923 biggest companies could not recouprepparttar 114924 costs of such a process as no-one can controlrepparttar 114925 rights to common natural substances such as basic foods and vitamins.

The big question however is, do natural hair loss remedies work? Firstly, hair growth at root level is a living part ofrepparttar 114926 body that depends on sound nutrition, just like any other part ofrepparttar 114927 body. The importance of vitamins, minerals and other nutritional elements in maintaining healthy hair cannot be disputed.

Hair cloning as a viable treatment for hair loss conditions.

One ofrepparttar most exciting recent developments inrepparttar 114922 search to find new solutions for hair loss has been research investigating hair cloning. Properly known as follicle cloning or multiplication, it involves taking a sample of a person's hair follicle cells, multiplying them in a lab and injecting them back intorepparttar 114923 patient's scalp. The aim obviously is to generate natural hair regrowth withoutrepparttar 114924 need for invasive surgery. But can we realistically expect this treatment to become available inrepparttar 114925 forseeable future?

Unfortunatelyrepparttar 114926 process is not yet possible but research is underway to perfect it. Current predictions suggest that it is unlikely to become available torepparttar 114927 public for at least ten years.

The name ofrepparttar 114928 process is a little misleading as it really refers to cell therapy rather than true cloning. Once perfected it would involve taking a small sample of tissue fromrepparttar 114929 scalp and then creating a culture that would allowrepparttar 114930 follicle cells to multiply. The theory is thatrepparttar 114931 few sample cells would multiply to become several hundred thousand that could then be injected back intorepparttar 114932 scalp to create several thousand new hairs.
