HAIR COUNT & MORE HAIR GROWTH

THE FRUIT EXTRACT

Scientists at the University of Kuala Lumpur have identified compounds in palm fruits, called tocotrienols, which significantly help promote hair growth. They are thought to reduce inflammation levels in the scalp, which is commonly associated with thin hair.

THE STUDY RESULTS

Repeatedly, studies are confirming the effect of tocotrienols in helping hair count. In a clinical study done to obtain the US patent, scientist could show that everyone in the study group taking 50 mg of a tocotrienol complex, had positive results after 5 months.

THE SECOND STUDY

A second, larger study, was done to confirm the results. The study group was monitored for the number of hairs in a pre-determined scalp area at 0, 4 and 8 months. The results were impressive. Hair growth increased significantly as compared to the placebo group, recording a 16% increase at 4 months and a 34.5% increase at the end of the 8-months, compared to a 0.1% decrease in the control group.

Researchers studied an area of the scalp equal to 2x2 cm and counted the hairs at the beginning of the study, at 4 months and at 8 months. At the end of the study, the participants on the tocotrienol supplement had gained on average 34.5% more hair or an increase in average hair count from 285 to 383 hairs.**
