Hair

While hair loss is a natural part of the aging process and can happen to anyone, it is more common among men. It typically starts with the thinning of the hair and progresses from there. Most hair loss is the result of genetics, but other factors can come into play. For example, hair loss may be a symptom of an underlying illness or the result of a hormone imbalance.

Flax products may be beneficial for the natural prevention and treatment of hair loss. Flaxseed and the lignans found inside are full of ingredients that promote healthy hair. Lignans are rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which produce moisture, strengthen hair, and promote a healthy scalp. To maximize the benefits of omega-3 fatty acids found in lignans, experts recommend that they are ingested from the hull of the flaxseed..

Acatris, a Dutch ingredients company, conducted a study to determine if ingesting flax lignans daily would reduce hair loss. Results showed lignans to assist in hair loss by stopping enzymes from converting testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT is what causes hair follicles to shrink, producing thinner hair growth and eventually eliminating growth altogether. Participants in the study also reported that the overall health of their scalp improved with the use of lignans.

The Acatris study shows great promise for men and women experiencing baldness. Many believe baldness is caused by dead hair follicles. However, the hair follicles are actually lying dormant due to the DHT. Regularly consuming lignans can lower DHT levels and may revive the hair follicles, eventually causing the hair to grow back.

Before starting the Flax Hull Lignans, I would have a bad cough and would throw up stuff that I think was from my sinuses draining during the night. I used to get bad headaches from sinus pressure also. Now I don’t cough as much in the morning and hardly ever seem to throw up. The sinus headaches are not as frequent now. I also seem to have a “better feeling” overall.

I have noticed a slight improvement in joint pain since I have been taking the Flax Hull Lignans. I have had arthritis for years. Also, I seem to be sleeping better at night. I take a sleeping aid at bed time yet I still have some trouble sleeping

Yes, I am delighted to be able to report the changes we have experienced by using the Concentrated Flax Hull Lignans. My husband and I are in our fifties, and are starting to show a little wear and tear from fifty years of living, so this is the time when we are looking everywhere for natural ways to prevent any serious problems before they strike. (We don’t resort to Western medicine because we feel it is often more life-threatening than the diseases)...
