KÉRATENE Alphactive ® Retard

I may go back then to HairOmega DHT (Saw Palmetto 300mg+Beta Sitosterol 300mg+Other). Whats your opinion Guys?

If you would go back to SP, 40-45% of active components is a pretty low. You should go for standardized saw palmetto, with +85% of them. If it does anything at all, you really need those components.

Three months is not enough to see dramatic changes. I gues even finasteride won't give you visible results in 3 months.
Don't ever expect something dramatic with each of the products we have nowadays, preservation is the best you should hope for.

Saw Palmetto - cheaper too.

Yeah, because I didn't see that dramatic change after 3 months of taking Keratene Alphactive Retard, it reduced the hair fall a bit but not that much difference than my previous HairOmega DHT product which is only $17 per bottle and contains super ingredients. I attached some photos of the product, you can have a look at it as I attached its photos (front and back). My Keratene supply will finish after 3 days. I may go back then to HairOmega DHT (Saw Palmetto 300mg+Beta Sitosterol 300mg+Other). Whats your opinion Guys?

Can anyone tell me which is more effective? Saw Palmetto or Keratene Alphactive Retard? Has anyone used saw palmetto before and is using Keratene at the moment?

I would love to hear your opinion. These two are the only proven alternatives to Finasteride. Any idea please?

SP does need time like all other treatments but the effects are minimal.

For me, saw palmetto didn't do that much, although I may have stopped using it too soon.

Based on their own results, Kar would be more effective. But you can only know for sure if you try it yourself (for long enough and with blood tests).

I thought soy products decreased DHT levels. As can be read here:

The study quoted at the first post is comparing Milk Protein Isolate to Soy products. It's not comparing a baseline. Milk has absolutely been proven to cause acne which is driven by DHT. I would not be surprised if Milk increased DHT levels. NO, I don't have a study to back that up, however I do have a study to backup the Milk/Acne connection if wanted.

This is really interesting. Kinda worries me, because I eat Thai food twice a week. I dont mind if its unchanged in these 2 days but DHT level going up! No way. Where did you get this statement from Buddy?

I said where I got it. Keratene tech support. Via email.

I think everyone taking this product should be aware of this (from Keratene tech support):

"a comparative uncontrolled trial conducted 3 years ago in Asia, on Kératene. The subjects ate whatever their heart desired, with odd consequences. Their DHT levels went up or remained unchanged when they were suppose to go down. On a closer observation, the study reveled that all, with no exception, ate soy and sterol-rich foods, which are typical for Asia."

If you want information then email them. They seem to be very responsive.

I've lost faith in this product, where are they? They've got access to the site, doesn't look good at all really.

soy (products) may interfere not only with the effects provided by the Kératene capsules, but on a deeper level too. This is one of the reason why the product is actually intentionally not sold anywhere in Asia.

One month taking x2 daily - nothing to report, just making a note.
