Chinese hair loss herbsAlternative medicine scientists have been researching many Chinese hair loss herbs for a few years now and have found some very promising results. These herbs all help in preventing hair loss and encouraging hair growth in many different ways, and the results of these tests have been pleasing to say the least. It has long been known that pharmaceutical pills for hair loss are simply not safe, and not nearly as effective as one would like considering the risks associated with using them regularly. But Chinese hair loss herbs have zero risk, because they are all natural and side effect free. So finding that they may be as effective as the researchers had hoped is good news. Types of Chinese Hair Loss HerbsThere are many different Chinese hair loss herbs. Many of them can be found in one of the leading hair loss fighting products known as procerin. However, three main herbs are well known in the scientific circle that each have a different, very specific effect on hair loss. Saw Palmetto:Saw Palmetto is best known for its ability to prevent the creation of DHT. DHT, or Dihydrotestosterone, is a hormone that is created when testosterone combines itself with an enzyme known as 5-alpha. Once created, this very powerful hormone has very few purposes in your body, so it binds to the roots of your hair follicles and prevents them from getting the nutrients they need to grow correctly. Eventually, DHT causes hair to thin, weaken and fall out. Once it has fallen out, it may never grow back. Saw Palmetto works by preventing the testosterone/enzyme combination from taking place, so that far less of the hormone is created. Gotu Kola:Gotu Kola, another one of the three main Chinese hair loss herbs, prevents the enzyme 5-alpha from being overproduced. Without excess enzyme, your body will use what enzyme it has left for 5-alpha's many other purposes, rather than to creatae DHT, which your body doesn't really need. Combined with Saw Palmetto, these two Chinese hair loss herbs work very well in preventing DHT related hair loss. Ginseng:Ginseng is less related to DHT, but it does provide your hair with additional nutrients and strength. With additional strength, Ginseng is able to ensure that your hairs are stronger, so that if DHT starts to attack the follicles, it will take a lot longer for your hair to weaken to |
