Natural Treatment of Hair Loss |
The treatment
for hair loss may be divided into two types. One type includes the
artificial methods like hair transplantation, use of drugs, etc. The other type
includes various ways of natural
hair loss treatment.
The artificial hair loss treatment methods are undoubtedly
effective. However, a natural
hair loss treatment method is always a safer alternative.
Some tools for natural treatment
for hair loss
The following herbal supplements play very effective roles
in natural hair loss
treatment –
Saw Palmetto (Serenoa
repens) – It is a palm-like
plant of the North American origin. Extracts from saw palmetto berries contain
fatty acids and sterols. The latter block 5-Alpha-Reductase and reduce DHT
uptake by hair follicles. They also reduce the block binding of DHT to androgen
receptors. The liposterolic extract of saw palmetto combined with
beta-sitosterol (a phytosterol common to many plants and grains) has produced
notable improvements in anti-androgen activity in several research studies.
Boarage oil – Boarage
oil is one of the <a href=http://www.malepatternbaldness.info/hair-loss-treatment-clinic.php> proven hair loss treatments</a>.
It contains omega-3 fatty acids. Its presence in a diet may help to prevent
hair loss. In fact, it may even help promote hair re-growth.
Boarage seeds also contain gamma linoleic acid (GLA), an
omega-6 fatty acid. The latter - a good fat - may help prevent male pattern
baldness.
Stinging nettle (Urtica
diocia) – It has been used as a hair tonic for centuries. It
supposedly stimulates new hair growth and revives hair color.
DHT is the hormone responsible for male pattern
baldness and a nettle root extract
reportedly prevents testosterone from being converted to DHT.
Green tea extract – Green
tea extracts also hamper the conversion of testosterone to DHT. The catechin
concentration in green tea is higher than that in black tea. Unlike black tea,
green tea is not allowed to dry and ferment. That helps to retain catechin
integrity.
Grape seeds - Grape
seeds contain OPCs (oligomeric proanthocyanidins). They stimulate epithelial
cell growth and check the growth-inhibiting effect of the molecule TGF-beta2
produced by androgen affected hair follicles.
Apple skin – It is another effective natural hair loss treatment agent. Studies have
established procyanidin therapy as a potential treatment for male pattern
baldness. Apple procyanidins reportedly have high level hair-growth promoting
capacity.
The skin of green apples is the
richest known source of procyanidin.
Black cohosh – It has
the ability to regulate estrogen hormone levels. Therefore it is potentially
helpful in hair loss prevention and restoration. It is a regular component of
natural hair loss restoration formulas.
Licorice - This native European herb is
famous as an excellent expectorant and is an effective hair loss treatment
agent as well. As black cohosh, it can also regulate estrogen hormone level.
Ayurvedic antistress tea – Consumption of a mixed drink of Nardostachys Jatamamsi
and Bacopa Monnieri each day may prevent hair loss. Beside that, it also helps
in relieving stress.
He Shou Wu (Polygonum
multiflorum) - This Chinese herb is a
common component of various natural hair loss treatment agents.
Pygeum (Pygeum africanum) – It has two usability. One is treating male pattern
baldness and the other is treating prostate related problems.
Cinnamon and Dragon Bone - It helps in solving round spots of alopecia.
Mixture of Bupleurum and
Dragon Bone - It is another agent to
treat round alopecia spots.
Silver and Platycodon
Formula - It is another herbal
supplement promoting hair growth.
