3D micropattern enhances hair regrowth
We explored a novel approach to tackle hair loss by using a 3D multicellular micropattern that includes magnesium silicate (MS) nanomaterials. This innovative method involved carefully positioning hair follicle-related cells in a structured network along with vascular cells, all created through advanced bioprinting techniques.

The incorporation of magnesium silicate aimed to enhance both hair follicle potential and the formation of new blood vessels—factors crucial for healthy hair growth. Our findings revealed promising results, showing that this 3D micropattern with MS significantly promoted hair regrowth in models of skin tissue regeneration, including both immunodeficient mice and those with androgenetic alopecia.

Essentially, we demonstrated that integrating magnesium with a well-designed cell arrangement could lead to better hair restoration outcomes. This significant insight contributes to the ongoing search for effective treatments for hair loss, bridging biological engineering and dermatology in the process.

Magnesium shows significant hair loss benefits
We examined the effectiveness of two different nutritional supplements for treating telogen effluvium (TE), a type of hair loss. Over 180 days, female participants were split into two groups to receive distinct supplements.

Our findings revealed that the first group, which included magnesium, showed significant improvement in hair loss, volume, and density by the 90-day mark. However, the second group did not demonstrate similar benefits.

Overall, magnesium and a mix of nutrients can significantly benefit those suffering from TE, suggesting a nutritional approach for better hair health.

Liver transplant skin issues addressed
We examined the occurrence of skin problems following liver transplants in 112 patients, noting that 12.5% experienced dermatological complications. Many of these issues directly stemmed from immunosuppressive therapy used post-surgery.

We found that most skin complications could be effectively managed with adjustments in medication. Notably, we also noted that hair loss due to low magnesium levels was treated successfully with daily supplements.

Overall, while skin complications are common, they are often preventable and manageable through careful monitoring.

Restores hair growth

This supplement improved my sleep and aided in restoring my hair after experiencing severe hair loss. After six months, I noticed significant hair regrowth! I take one capsule in the morning and one at night; the large, tasteless capsules don’t upset my stomach. I'm very satisfied with the results.

Best magnesium discovered
I was sceptical about magnesium's ability to “calm” the nervous system and reduce hair loss, but I found the best magnesium! After a month of use, my hair stopped falling out rapidly, and I began to handle stress more calmly. I take 1 or 2 capsules daily.

7.5
Hair growth observed
The effectiveness of magnesium depends on the conditions of intake. I realised this after a month and a half, almost considering it useless initially. However, it helps with hair loss, even promoting new hair growth. I take it before bed with melatonin, experiencing no discomfort.
7.5
Consistent effectiveness
For three months, this magnesium proved effective with no side effects. It helped to alleviate symptoms of magnesium deficiency, especially night cramps, hair loss, and irritability, leading to sound sleep. Additionally, it enhanced my overall well-being and efficiency.
7.5
Effective magnesium use
Excellent! Taking this magnesium has been effective for me, as it reduced the symptoms of magnesium deficiency, specifically: night cramps stopped, hair loss decreased, irritability disappeared, and my sleep became sound. I recommend Now Foods magnesium 400 mg to anyone who lacks this mineral, as it efficiently replenishes magnesium and alleviates its deficiency symptoms.
6
Delayed effectiveness noted
Taking this supplement for three months, initially, I found it somewhat ineffective. Yet, after a month and a half, I noticed less hair loss, and new hair began to grow. I recommend combining it with melatonin for better results, as magnesium alone doesn't help with sleep.
9
Decreases hair loss
I appreciated Now Foods 400 mg magnesium supplement, which was effective for me over three months without any negative side effects. It alleviated symptoms of magnesium deficiency, including a reduction in hair loss, improvement in mood, and better sleep quality. I recommend this dietary supplement for those needing magnesium.

Reduces hair loss
533 people found this helpful
Magnesium is vital! I liked the packaging (180 capsules), cost, and convenient intake format (1 capsule daily). The capsules are tasteless and odourless, quickly eliminating magnesium deficiency symptoms, reducing irritability, improving sleep, and alleviating leg cramps. Moreover, they reduce hair loss and pain in the hair root, while enhancing my mood without side effects, improving my overall health.
