In the News – Vitamins and Nutrigenomics

While it isn’t hair loss news, I just came across this very interesting bit of news which links our genes to our vitamin needs. We are not all the same, so our needs are different. This is a wonderful insight into where we are going with GOOD scientific research that will eventually prolong our lives.
