that has always been true throughout history
but , for example, take Biotin, critical to hair health, and for protein synthesis, all of the GREAT hair vitamins contain 2000mcg OF Biotin, 666 percent of the RDA,
Tell me what you could eat to get 2000mcg of Biotin, its possible, but who makes all their own food,
Food Serving Biotin (mcg)
Liver, cooked 3 ounces* 27(mcg
Egg, cooked 1 large 25(mcg
Yeast, bakers active 1 packet (7 grams) 14(mcg
Wheat bran, crude 1 ounce 14(mcg
Bread, whole wheat 1 slice 6(mcg
Cheese, camembert 1 ounce 6(mcg
Avocado 1 whole 6(mcg
Salmon, cooked 3 ounces* 4(mcg
Cauliflower, raw 1 cup 4(mcg
Chicken, cooked 3 ounces* 3(mcg
Cheese, cheddar 1 ounce 2(mcg
Pork, cooked 3 ounces* 2(mcg
Raspberries 1 cup 2(mcg
Artichoke, cooked 1 medium 2(mcg
So as you see one egg contains 25mcg of Biotin, you would have to eat 80 eggs to get 2000mcg of Biotin.
Biotin is needed by many organs in the body, and as you should well know, the body will nourish the internal organs brain, skin etc before it will nourish the hair, The hair is last in line, and considered unimportant by the body, so only if the body has a high excess of Biotin, will the hair get any. It is not a coincidence that they put such a high amount of Biotin in Maxi Hair and Ultra hair. They would not do it , if it had not been proven to have good results with hair growth.
i do not know about you, but I dont plan to eat 80 eggs per day
When I was not on DHT blockers back in the early 90s, I experimented with every diet and vitamin I could get my hands on, I ate very little sugar salt red meat, took loads of vitamins. My hair did great with the vitamins, staved off my balding IF I TOOK ULTRA HAIR. The only difference in this and the individual vitamins I was taking was the 2000mcg of timed Released Biotin. That is it. By process of elimination I found this to be true. No matter what individual vitamins I took, even if i copied the Ultra Hair, step by step, by buying B 100 timeed release, right on down the line, My hair still would not stop the high fallout.
I could not however find timed released Biotin, at that time, individually. When I took the Ultra Hair, and a chelated mineral separately My fallout stopped. So I know that Biotin makes a HUGE difference in your hair health. Now this is noticeable especially in the early stages of fallout. Eventually the DHT will overcome any positive effects of vitamins, if you do not attack the DHT somehow, and that is what happened to me, my hair started falling out in gobs in 1999, even with the Ultra Hair.
thats when i added DHT blockers and that seemed to be the missing link
but try getting all the vitamins in the super hair vitamins from your diet
good luck with that
