Can Cinnamon Extract Help Fight Hair Loss? Ep. 1184 APR 2024

Researchers are looking at ways to help hair growth, and a new study shows promise with cinnamon! They found a tiny molecule in cinnamon called cinnamic acid that can increase hair growth by helping the body use oxytocin, a hormone important for hair health. In lab tests, cinnamic acid showed results almost as good as oxytocin itself, but with the advantage of being small enough to be absorbed by the scalp. This is exciting news for future hair growth products!
