sebum, sweat, etc. I presently add 4 grams of booster powder to 60 ml

All Natural – Beta-Sitosterol & HDL cholesterol value
Beta-sis lowers the bad cholesterol (LDL) and the good one (HDL). And
this is the problem. Normally the LDL should be low and the HDL should
be very high, because HDL lowers the bad cholesterol (LDL). Now If you
take beta-sis this lowers both and HDL cant lower the bad one. Nobody
knows what happened if you takes Beta-sis in higher dosage for some
years. It could be that after stopping beta-sis HDL never come to the
default level where it can lower the bad one.

All Natural – Flex Seed Oil, improving absorption
Based on these observations, Dr. Budwig began treating her patients by
giving them a combination of high quality flax seed oil, which is rich
in Omega3 oil, and quark, which is something similar to cottage cheese
or yogurt in that it is rich in high quality protein. The reason for
the mixture of the oil with a high quality protein is that by
combining the protein with the oil, the oil becomes water soluble in
the body and can be absorbed more readily. It can enter the smallest
capillaries, dissolving any of the undesirable fats and cleaning out
the veins and arteries. It also strengthens the heart, dissolves
tumors and cures arthritis. It sounds like a lot, but it really works.

suggest that regular use of shampoo may even slow down futher
hairloss; after 4 years participants in group II (shampoo)had an
average of 29 more hairs in the observed area than participants in
group I (water only). This is likely due to the build up of micoscopic
fungi without the cleaning of the scalp.”

According to the new study, “Supplementation with GliSODin in normal
mice for 28 days was found to promote the circulating antioxidant
enzymes SOD, catalase and Gpx. This was specific to GliSODin, because
non-protected SOD extract or gliadin alone were unable to promote
these antioxidants. The study concluded that supplementation with
Glisodin® promoted cellular antioxidant status and protected against
oxidative stress-induced cell death.”

”Most of the DHT inhbition is in the form of Blocking, not reduction,

DHT at the androgen receptor sites on the hair follicles, it also does
this on the androgen receptors on the prostate. It has not been shown
to reduce blood hormone levels, of DHT or testosterone. At least in
the studies i have read. Propecia, however, does reduce male hormone
levels in the blood. thats why the side effects show up.”

“And in a key 1999 review of four well-designed clinical trials
involving 519 men with mild to moderate (symptomatic) BPH, analysts
reported that beta-sitosterol provided notable relief from urinary
problems. It also increased urine flow and caused few side effects.
Interestingly, benefits matched those commonly seen with prescription
BPH drugs. Beta-sitosterol even holds promise for lowering a man's
cholesterol levels at the same time that it controls BPH symptoms.
It's still not clear exactly how beta-sitosterol benefits the
prostate; research indicates that it may lessen inflammation and block
the accumulation of cholesterol in the prostate gland itself. It does
not appear to alter the size of the prostate, however.”

All Natural & Supplements: Laminaria Extract
Increases Outer Root Sheath Cell Growth
Recently, stem cells discovered in the bulge region of the
outer root sheath (ORS) are found to be able to induce the
anagen phase in the hair follicle cycle. In an attempt to
research for growth-promoting agents for the ORS cells,
some studied the effect of various botanical extracts on
the growth of cultured human hair follicles. Among the
studies conducted, Laminaria angustata extract was found
to be able to increase the ORS cell growth. Further,
hair-growth in the shaved skin of C3H mice was also
promoted by the topical application of the extract.

All Natural & Supplements: Oxicell: Liposomes
Based Glutathione (GSH) and Superoxide Dismutases (SOD).
Superoxide dismutases (SOD) are enzymes which destroy or
neutralize superoxide free radicals and are reported to be
beneficial for hairloss. Excellent info on SOD can be
found at http://www.phoenixlongevity.com/
sod.html. Glutathione (GSH), on the other hand, is a
component of the defense system, synthesized mainly by
photosynthesis. Recent study (http://abstracts.aspb.org/pb2003/
public/P44/0727.html ) suggest that GSH has an indirect
effect on hair root formation via its effect on CPC.
Here’s an excerpt about the new product OXICELL: "OXICELL
represents a significant breakthrough in the field of
natural medicine, particularly in the area of antioxidant
supplementation. OXICELL is a metabolic cream that
transports a stabilized form of glutathione (GSH) and
superoxide dismutase (SOD) into the bloodstream via
transdermal liposomal delivery methods. The plasma markers
of GSH and SOD are not raised when these are supplied
orally; therefore, effective transport into the
bloodstream via liposomal delivery as found in OXICELL is
preferential. The transdermal method of delivery, known as
liposomal delivery, is one in which lipid spheres called
liposomes surround GSH and SOD, transporting it through
the skin until it reaches the blood supply"

All Natural & Supplements: Protandim to
be Released Feb 2005 ! If you believe that anti-oxidants
can help fight hairloss, you may want to look into the Feb
2005 release of Protandim. According to the
distributor, this product has been demonstrated to
decrease oxidation by as much as 60% in humans in just the
first 30 days of intake. Protandim is not an
antioxidant. It works by inducing the body to
produce more of its own natural antioxidant enzymes, eg:
Superoxide Dismutase (SOD), Catalase (CAT) and Glutathione
Peroxidase (GPX) etc. to fight oxidation. Protandim
allows these enzymes to be produced within the cells where
oxidative stress actually occurs. This is in
contrast to traditional antioxidant supplements which have
to pass significant digestive and absorption barriers.

All Natural & Supplements: Beta-sitosterol
Now The Most Popular Supplement in the Forum. Lately
many in the All Natural & Supplements forum have added
Beta-sitosterol to their regimen. Some even reported
good results from it. Here’s a brief description about
this supplement: “Beta-sitosterol is the active
ingredient in saw palmetto berries, which have been used
for centuries to treat patients with prostate and urinary
problems. The active ingredient in saw palmetto as
well as other herbal remedies such as pygeum, stinging
nettle, and pumpkin seeds is beta-sitosterol. One
capsule usually contains 300mg of beta-sitosterol. You
would have to eat 2 lbs. of saw palmetto to get the same
amount of beta-sitosterol one 300mg capsule. This is
3000 times more potent than saw palmetto.”. Some
recent comments from people who reported good results with
this supplement. Click here for more info.
