No finasteride, dutasteride, was used
Take internally:
Virgin (Unrefined) Coconut Oil: 3 to 6 table spoons /day
Lowers DHT within natural ranges, also increases libido.
It can sometimes stop shedding within a week. You can take more if you want faster results.
Iodine: 12.5-100mg /day
50mg is the standard dose. Be aware that you may experience symptoms of halogen detox as your body flushes out excess halogens (Fluoride/Bromide/Chlorine). These don’t really do anything good for you, so better out than in.
Iodine is basically fuel for the Thyroid. The Thyroid filters the blood and regulates hormone levels. This is one of the most important supplements in this protocol.
Use the Lugols solution version of it, it’s a mixture of Iodine and Iodide. JCrows is a good brand. Iodine is for your thyroid and Iodide is good for your bodily tissues (Hair, skin, organs, etc).
The 5% formula contains 5% Iodine and 10% Iodide. It has a total Iodine content of 125.6 mg/mL.
I take 8 drops of the 5% formula. This equals about 50mg. I drop it into empty gelcaps so I don’t have to taste it.
Make sure you get NON-radioactive Iodine.
Bonus: Iodine also helps sleep
Selenium Methionine: 400 to 600 mcg /day
Selenium must be taken with Iodine, it prevents negative side effects from occurring and converts the thyroid hormone t4 into its active version t3.
Two Brazil nuts contain 400mcg of Selenium, I prefer them because Selenium tablets smell bad.
The conversion of t4 to t3 is dose-dependent. I advise to not take more than 800mg of Selenium with Iodine (4 brazil nuts), because high doses can lead to a condition called thyroid storm, which can be deadly. I think doses up to 1200mg might be ok, but to be safe I wouldn’t take more than 800mg. 400mg is plenty anyways.
Chromium GTF: 400mcg /day.
This is to control blood glucose spikes, because excess insulin in the blood creates inflammation of the scalp which = perfect environment for shedding.
High blood sugar feeds fungus (Candida) in your body which also = inflammation which = hair loss.
High blood sugar also creates an acidic environment within the body which = inflammation.
I take 200mg with each meal, for my two biggest meals each day.
Magnesium Citrate: 2000mg /day.
Split up the dosage and take away from other minerals (like Zinc) as they compete for absorption. After a few months lower the dosage to 1000mg /day
Studies show Magnesium improves blood glucose by 50% and can cure Type 2 diabetes.
This is good because insulin resistance can also lead to estrogen trouble and inflammation (which triggers hair loss).
For optimal absorption, take minerals like Magnesium and Zinc with Apple Cider Vinegar.
Zinc Picolinate: 150mg /day
Displaces Copper. High Copper levels cause your body to hold on to Estrogen, not allowing excretion. Left untreated over time, Estrogen levels build up. High Estrogen = Inflammation.
Countries like the US who use Copper pipes for their water experience these problems more often. Copper usually contaminates many foods of these countries as well.
Take until levels are normal, then you can lower the dose to 50mg /day (if you wish)
I personally take 150mg /day.
Molybdenum: 500mcg 3 times /day (Or with meals)
Also helps displace Copper.
Niacinamide (b3): 500-1000mg before bed.
Beneficial to sleep, cancer, anxiety AND hair loss.
Green Tea Extract: 3 to 6 caps /day
Anti-inflammatory.
Omega 3 Fish Oil: 3 to 4 gelcaps or more /day
Quells inflammation.
Cod Liver Oil: 3 to 6 gelcaps /day
Quells inflammation.
If you’re only going to take one type of fish oil, choose Cod Liver Oil.
Has the bioavailable form of vitamin A, which is needed for vitamin K2 (below) to be absorbed.
Vitamin K2 (MK-4): 500mcg-1mg
K2 shuttles Calcium from your blood to your bones. The less Calcium in your blood, the less that will be available to settle into your scalp and prevent hair growth.
If calcium is settled in your scalp, your **** is all clogged up and you can’t get any blood up there to give your hair the nutrients it needs to grow.
K2 also prevents arterial calcification. Really good for heart health.
Vitamin E: 400mg /day
For optimal circulation which is needed to get nutrients to the scalp.
Boron: 3-20mg /day
Start low, gauge how you feel. Cycle 3 days on, 3 days off.
B Vitamins: Full-Fat Liver Powder contains a range of b vitamins.
B vitamins give you energy. People deficient in B vitamins tend to have sleep disorders and low HGH (HGH helps hair growth).
Liver powder is superior to B-complex vitamins because B-complex vitamins contain B6, which can cause nerve damage (and is linked to autism). P-5-P is the broken down version of B6 and will not cause these problems.
P-5-P (Pyridoxal phosphate): Up to 300mg /day
Inhibits prolactin. Prolactin makes you shed.
Taurine: 1400-3000mg /day.
Rids the body of fibrosis including liver cirrhosis and scalp fibrosis.
Fibrosis of the scalp prevents new hair from growing.
Baking Soda: 3-4tsp /day taken in glasses of water throughout the day (on an empty stomach or 45 mins after meals, not before meals though as it neutralizes stomach acid)
Candida fungus thrives in acidic (low-oxygen) environments. Baking Soda alkalizes (high-oxygen environment) the body so Candida cannot survive.
Baking soda 30 minutes after meals will help final stage digestion after food leaves the stomach and enters the duodeum.
Cayenne Powder: 1 capsule with large meals
Helps digestion, can heal stomach uclers and improve heartburn.
Take all of the fat-based supplements together.
Use topically on scalp:
Apple Cider Vinegar: Rinse scalp every other day before bed.
Mix 2-3 tbsp in a small cup of water. Rinse your scalp with it, rub it in, and dry your head with it still in. Sleep with it in your hair. It'll kill topical fungus AND clear calcium deposits which prevent hair growth (male pattern baldness people have this badly)
Bragg’s brand is the best; most health food stores have it.
Niacinamide and Boron:
After the vinegar rinse, open one Niacinamide and one Boron capsule and dump them in a bowl. Add a few trickles of water to create a paste. Rub it on your bald spots. Many people report new hairs to spring up within weeks.
Nizoral:
Use in the shower every other day at first, then reduce to 2-3 times /week. Leave in for 5-10 mins.
The 2% formula is best, but I could only find the 1%. I use it every day. You can use a very small amount. I use about 3 dime-sized applications for male pattern baldness areas.
Nizoral is an antifungal. Many people think it works because of its anti-DHT properties, but those are actually much weaker than popularly believed.
