    Not sure if I can attribute this to toco 8 or the fact that I have extremely mild hairloss.
    I was thinking this same thing a couple weeks ago.

    Was it accelerating? Was that why I finally noticed it? Have I slowed it down?

    No friggin' clue. I think only a long time will tell.

    I was shedding more last year for sure.

    30-40 hair aint so bad for a bit longer hairs.

    I can really see the beard growing like crazy though.


    Ps
    I'm also rubbing olive oil in, at least 3 times weekly, I read it does wonders for sebum etc..
    I've heard good things about olive oil, I've also heard acv is good.
    Guess I should also note that I'm using rogaine foam and niz as well, but I noticed the shedding decrease after starting toco8.

    My beard is growing super strong, my girl and my mom noticed it,

    Hair - not so much. I wash hair every 2 or 3 days and shed around 40 hairs.
    I dont se a change in density. I have some very long hairs (for the comparison),
    but I really cant say I see noticeable change. The hairs SEEM a bit thicker right above where they come out of skin, but that can be optical illusion...

    I'm starting folexen soon, then I REALLY hope to see some regrowth.

    Update:

    I have been missing doses - shedding has increased, found 15 hairs in the shower today. Usually only shed less then 5.

    Interesting. It appears PrimeOrdial Performance has changed their dosage for Toco 8 from one scoop per day to two. I know that was not what it was when I bought it originally.


    Toco-Sorb:


    So...how is 57mg + 15mg equal to 375mg? Even if you count all four -trienols as 57mg each, that only comes up to 225mg.

    Also, saying "complex" to me would mean all encompassing. Since Toco Sorb leaves out 3 of the -pherols, not sure it should claim that.

    At least the numbers for Toco8 add up.

    I'm through a container of Toco-8 and on to trying out Tocosorb for a bottle. Nothing much to report. Hair looks about the same when I grow it out a tad (which is a rare). It could be worse, but it's hard to tell so short. It is definitely not better though.

    This is not necessarily a criticism of tocotrienol/tocopherol supplements, yet. As we all know, treating hairloss is a painfully slow (and typically fruitless) endeavor.

    I do feel healthier in general, but I've made a lot of changes over the last few months, so it's hard to attribute that to any one thing. I never really felt the increased libido some people claim to have experienced, and my beard/chest hair is about the same thickness as always. I'll come back to report if I notice any difference with this bottle of tocosorb.
