What does everyone think about the fact that toco-8 actually RAISES testosterone? That cannot be good for hair...

Testosterone and the notorious potent form DHT are wonderful androgens with one only to well known drawback.....
Eh .."certain", treatments have sought the elimination of these great hormones to eradicate their 1 drawback (balding), with devastating consequences for some unfortunate males.
IF only their was some treatments out there that interfered with DHT's interaction at the site of hairloss, yet did not reduce it. Imagine treatments that had testosterone boosting side affects.... but wait > Toco....
I personally embrace any treatment that boosts testosterone yet ironically reverses hair loss. And then I hit the gym with abandon, fearless of androgen sensitivity knowing that's no longer an issue due to the interventions of my new medicines.

During foetal development every male starts to develop androgen-resistant hairs, how on earth medical science can reverse-engineer this natural process and actually mimic it in the lab is beyond me. Trying to recreate a hair follicle in the lab with every intricate function working like clockwork is like looking for a small piece of hay in a very large pile of needles whilst wearing boxing gloves.
Evan Lausters lab-generated hair did not contain EVERY aspect of the follicle that the human body can just create with such seeming ease. We'll be needing the help of the bodies own physiological functions to 'cure' hair loss; "a dose of what works well there, here".Comment

During embrionic development is the only stage in life where DHT seems to play a positive role. Beyond that, in adult males.. its either responsible for baldness or prostate cancer.. either way it does no one no good !Comment

Vitamin E might also play a role in boosting nitric oxide as well as blocking androgen receptors. What dosage would be suitable for that.. most likely very high !Comment

......If that were true... it's depletion would be of no consequence.
Lets not fear what the male body naturally produces. DHT is not the problem, our evolutionary scalp sensitivity to it is. It's a vestigial trait that is no longer of benefit.
tocotrienols are a treatment option for those who despise the notion of reducing our androgens, and it is apparent that we are plentiful. So at worst people at least have a choice in their regimen recruiting, whereas before the only choice people had was basically anti-androgens or nothing!Comment

Toco8
I noticed amazon.com is out now and I frankly don't want to sign up anywhere else just to order that one product....
Wondering how much more potent Toco8 is compared to another Complete Vitamin E complex.
Tocotreinols are TocotreinolsComment
