Miracle cures - miracle or myth?


Most herbal hair loss remedies contain Saw Palmetto berries. They are said to be an effective treatment for baldness, as well as relieving the symptoms of an enlarged prostate.


No authentic clinical studies support the claim that Saw Palmetto berries effectively treat hair loss and its dosage/application is based on conjecture, rather than scientific evidence.

Therefore Saw palmetto berries cannot legally be sold or claim to promote hair growth as its all just hear say. How ever there are to products on the market that can claim to grow hair back Propecia & Regaine

These are the two only drugs which are licensed for hair loss or male pattern baldness.

Good news for bald men at last: Hair loss 'almost halves the risk of prostate cancer'


One thing that men any age don't really want to see in the mirror is bald bald patches and receding hair lines. But research suggests those who, like Wayne Rooney, are facing a future with less hair should stop fretting at that retreating hairline and slapping on the propecia.




Men who start going bald at a young age are up to 45 per cent less likely to fall victim to prostate cancer later in life, scientists have found.


Although half of all men suffer significant hair loss by the age of 50, an American team has linked the high levels of testosterone in those who go bald earlier to a lower risk of tumours.


The scientists studied 2,000 men aged between 40 and 47, half of whom had suffered prostate cancer. They compared the rate of tumours in those who remembered their hair thinning by the age of 30 with those who did not suffer hair loss.

Men who had started to develop bald spots on the top of their heads as well as receding hairlines had the least risk of cancer.


'At first, the findings were surprising,' said Professor Jonathan Wright, an expert in prostate cancer at the University of Washington School of Medicine in Seattle. 'But we found that early onset baldness was associated with a 29 per cent to 45 per cent reduction in their relative risk of prostate cancer.'


Dr Helen Rippon, head of research management at The Prostate Cancer Charity, said: 'If these results are correct, they could be useful in providing us with a greater understanding of how testosterone behaves in the body and how it can affect different tissues.'

Stop Your Hair Loss with Vinegar ??????

I recently found an article in a Turkish newspaper claiming and old hair loss remedy from times gone by. It claims that Apple Cider Vinegar can make your hair look more healthy and even stop the process of hair loss.

In our opinion this is just an old wife's tale but hey if your loosing your hair you will try anything right? any way If you believe that your hair loss might be the result of a poor metabolism a few teaspoonfuls of ACV a day over the course of several months may stop hair loss.

But if you more into the medical facts we would suggest Buy Propecia as its the only proven and licensed medication available today.

Gooch and Warne's bald-cure ad ban

Hair-replacement adverts featuring cricket legends Shane Warne and Graham Gooch have been banned by an advertising watchdog.

The Australian spinner and former England captain have been featured prominently in advertising for the Advanced Hair Studio for several years, usually with close-ups of Gooch's head in 'before and after' condition following strand-by-strand replacement.

But a new advert that also featured the company's laser hair treatment has fallen foul the Advertising Standards Agency, with the watchdog ruling that it is misleading.

The advert - featuring a grinning Warne with the line "I stopped worrying about my hair when I heeded the Warne-ing signs and saw Advanced Hair Studio" - was deemed to imply that the laser procedure would produce the same hair replacement results as the strand-by-strand method.

The shine was taken off the advert when an examination of the bald facts showed this not to be the case, and the advertisement - unlike Warne and Gooch - will need a bit of a trim before it can appear again.

Shane MacGowan uses Guinness to combat hair loss

he Pogues frontman Shane MacGowan has admitted he has a strange way of battling male pattern baldness, alcohol! Not only is the “Fairytale of New York” star widely well known to enjoy many an alcoholic beverage, he also actually washes his hair in Guinness.

The Irish singer, who at 52 does still actually sport a full head of hair, has advised men who are worried about succumbing to losing their hair to try the old Irish method of running Guinness through their hair.
He says, "They sell all those lotions to cure you of baldness, they don't work. There is only one way to cure baldness. You pour Guinness over your head, collect it in a bucket, and drink it in the morning. It's proven to work."
In addition, MacGowan refuses to wash his locks when he’s away from his homeland of Ireland. He added: "I don't wash it, only in Tipperary water."
However, I assume there are people out there who are understandably reluctant to have a Guinness odour when going to the workplace or when trying to chat up a potential partner, so if you think you are starting to succumb to male pattern baldness and would like help then why not try one of the only few proven medications available today that has been shown to be successful – Propecia.
Propecia is a 5 alpha reductase inhibitor and it works by stopping or reducing the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT) in the hair cell, thus helping to reverse the balding process. It increases hair growth and prevents further hair loss associated with male pattern baldness.
