Hi All
So just some lazy reading this morning has me wondering out loud fwiw... Firstly I'm wondering how many people consume foods specifically to naturally inhibit DHT (I know their effects would all likely pale with finasteride, etc.), and or consume foods specifically to decrease PGD2? They say you "are what you eat" and it is true.
I came across a study regarding coffee and Androgenetic Alopecia, regarding PGD2, PGE2, and others, and it seems that in some it increases PGD2 while in others it does the opposite- but having trouble finding it now. I generally drink strong coffee, but used to drink more green tea and am thinking of switching.
Also reading about quercetin and its effects on PGD2. What do people think about injectable, or at least liquid quercetin as a topical? It has a relatively short half life but could it potentially be effective with needling?
Something on quercetin here: https://www.hairscience.com/green-tea-hair/
Also another random tidbit. I was listening to Joe Rogan interview Hamilton Morris a month or two ago and Morris mentioned a website where someone, at some expense to themselves I think, made a site where essentially any scientific journal could be accessed for free. I went back through he interview for a while and couldn't find the time stamp- did anyone listen to that? Because Ive seen several people posting abstracts lately for want of the entire papers.
