Green Tea and Hair Loss

Green Tea (Camellia Sinensis) is a popular ingredient in natural hair loss restoration products but why?

The plant contains a certain polyphenol (epigallocatechin gallate or EGCG) which acts as a very powerful antioxidant. The EGCG is also known to kill certain bacteria and to relax blood vessels.

When you can relax the scalps blood vessels (capillaries) you can increase the flow of blood which will, in turn, deliver more nutrients for your hair follicles to feed on and utilize.

It may also cause the body to produce a protein which binds to testosterone and render it useless to your body's tissues. This may reduce production of DHT which is a leading cause of hair loss in men.

Some researchers have speculated that the anti-inflammatory properties reduce stress and therefore decrease hair loss.

With the chance of stopping hair loss and possibly even reversing it, this plant gives you the additional benefits of lowering cholesterol while improving the ratio of HDL (good) to LDL (bad) cholesterol.

Other benefits may include lowering you chance of heart disease, cardiovascular disease, improving your immune system and even reducing cavities by killing the bacteria that causes plaque!

When one considers that it has been used in Chinese medicine for over 4000 years one comes to the conclusion that at least some of the claims must be true. While it has been used to treat everything from headaches to depression it may be just what you need to stop hair loss and maybe even promote new growth.

If you'd rather drink a beer than a cup of Green Tea (I know I would) then maybe supplementation is the path for you. It is possible to purchase EGCG capsules and ingest the powerful nutrients without having to put the kettle on.
