Herbs hold an obvious appeal for many people because they support the body's natural healing mechanisms to target the cause of the problem, as opposed to merely tackling the symptoms. It would be wrong to present herbal hair loss remedies as a miracle solution for all sufferers - there is however growing evidence to support the view that some herbal remedies offer real hope to many people.

Let's examine the case for some of the more popular remedies to determine if they're worth trying.

Ginkyo biloba - this popular herb is thought to improve blood circulation to the brain and skin. Herbalists believe that the increased flow of blood to the brain area delivers more nutrients to the hair follicle thus promoting hair regrowth. The recommended dose is 120-160mg of dry extract each day spread over three doses.

Green tea (Camellia sinesis) - it is thought that catechins found in green tea may inhibit the enzyme 5-alpha-reductase that converts testosterone into hair-unfriendly DHT. It is therefore believed to be effective in preventing and treating male pattern type baldness. You should drink several cups of green tea each day or take it in capsule form as instructed by the manufacture

Procerin's benefits are greatest for younger men (18-35), and older men whose hair is still in a growth phase. Men that still have growing hair experience an increase in hair count, and improvement hair thickness. Men often begin losing hair in their 20's, with hair loss progressing more rapidly as they age. As men get older, their hair's natural growth cycle cannot keep up with the hair loss. Procerin is most effective for those men whose hair is still growing, but have thinning hair or a receding hairline. Procerin's effectiveness for men whose hair is no longer in a growth phase is limited to retaining existing hair.
