Treating Hair Loss with Low Cholesterol, Green Tea, Saw Palmetto, and Vitamins
Hi,
do enjoy the site, always looking for new information that can help. I am aware that supplements such as saw palmetto are of ill comparison to the strength of finasteride. But what if you were to create a sort of daily routine which followed suite to the same components finasteride has such as rather then popping a pill of propecia you were to:
- keep cholesterol intake low to possibly decrease your testosterone levels
- 1-3 cups of green tea a day
- daily intake of supplements which include moderately large amounts of saw palmetto,nettle, beta sitosterol and lysine
- omega 3’6’9
- vitamin b complex
- daily multi vitamin of good quality
and also I have heard that to much vitamin A could possibly worsen the effects of male pattern baldness is this true? thanks
Saw palmetto does not work the same way as finasteride, and hair growth with it is less predictable. It is always good to live healthy and have a low cholesterol diet. Any good thing in excess can be bad for you (such as overdosing on vitamin A).
If the regimen you outlined works for you, then I would stick with it… but from a medical and scientific point of view, I doubt it will grow hair.
Doesn’t Cholestrol levels have an effect on DHT levels? I thought it did.
