Going bald?

Forty million men in the United States have male pattern baldness. A new study out of Malaysia researched vitamin E complex (tocotrienol) as a way to help reverse this phenomenon.

The Malaysian study from Carotech studied 28 participants with male pattern baldness.
When supplemented with this vitamin E complex, 42% of the participants experienced increase hair growth. This is the first research study to look into vitamin E complex and male baldness. More research is to come.

Vitamin E is an antioxidant. Vitamin E helps protect your body from free radicals. Free radicals play a role in certain conditions associated with aging.Vitamin E can be found in corn, nuts, seeds, asparagus, leafy greens, and vegetable oils.
