Are you tired of over priced drugs from the big pharmaceutical companies that don’t even work as they are advertised?  Are you sick of how Big Pharma has bought senators and now they seem to be able to do what ever they want while disregarding public health?  If so, and if you are suffering from hair loss, you will want to know about two natural remedies for hair loss which are showing great promise, and they aren’t making the CEO’s of these companies even richer.

Saw Palmetto extract comes from a short palm bush found on the Southeastern coast of the US.  Long prized for its ability to treat male urinary tract problems, it is now being consumed by men who are losing their hair due to male pattern baldness.  What is interesting about this natural remedy is the fact that the number one prescribed drug for hair loss, Finasteride, was also originally developed to treat enlarged prostate in men.  It was found that by blocking the cause of the prostate problems, high levels of DHT, the men in the original studies who had hair loss also saw a positive move in the treatment of their baldness.  Since then, it has been proven that DHT, a hormonal metabolite found in both men and women, is the principal cause of male pattern baldness which affects 95% of men with hair loss.

Another natural hair loss treatment finding great acceptance is Stingy Nettle Root.  This plant is actually found in many parts of the world which has made its use much greater than saw palmetto whose geographic growth area is very limited.  Nettle root appears to act as a DHT blocker like the palmetto plant.
