Where’s the Double Blind Study on Equol or Procyanidin B-2?
You say you are interested in research for new and improved hair loss treatment methods. Can I ask why no one has decided to do a serious, double blind study on Equol and MPB? Or even Procyanidin B-2? There is anectodal evidence these could help, as you admit. Why NO progress on ANYTHING in the US besides fin? Couldn’t an Equol pill make money if a study proved it worked for MPB instead of just hancuffing DHT? Why aren’t you leading the charge on some of this stuff, when you have access to the best research and best minds – and as you claim, a physician should CONSTANTLY seek better ways?
It is one thing to be a physician and another to be a researcher. It takes lots of money, time and logistic effort to conduct even a simple study, let alone a good, reputable study with many patients enrolled. While it is true that I am interested in research and science, I do not have the resources to take on such an endeavor. Perhaps you should pose this question to the drug companies and business entrepreneurs or find the funding to organize such effort.
