zinc and zinc oxide have been standards in a lot of peoples' regimens for a long time. It wasn't clear from the link you provided if these guys are doing something special or if they're just using the typical tube of zinc oxide that can be be purchased at any pharmacy.

Here's a ripoff from another forum regarding zinc . . .

You can read more about it here. They even got a patent on this treatment. The thing is it's from 2001-2002 and I would believe if it was such a hit someone would have manufacture it by now.

I guess it is something special. Thanks for that follow up link.

Sounds a lot less expensive that than aloe / avodart topical


If you are debating how high the zinc concentration should be in your cream, Waseda advised that 10% Zinc Oxide cream should be sufficient for most people. This is the concentration that Waseda uses and he is getting good results from the regimen.

Note that, however, if you choose to use Zinc Oxide cream, the preferred regimen would be slightly different from that of compounding Zinc Oxide powder. If you are using Zinc Oxide cream, you are NOT required to boil the mixture. Ascorbic acid dissolves readily in cold water and can become very unstable in high temperature. According to Waseda, you should try the following when using Zinc Oxide cream:

Add half teaspoon of ascorbic acid to a glass of water

Refrigerate the ascorbic acid solution prepared above.

Put 0.5g of Zinc Oxide cream on a small dish and add 2 ml to 5 ml of the refrigerated ascorbic acid solution to it.

If the Zinc Oxide cream does not already include corn starch, then add corn starch accordingly. Otherwise, please do not add corn starch as this would thicken the composition considerably.

Mix them to achieve a certain consistency.

Apply to thinning areas.

Leave the mixture on your scalp for about 15 - 30 min.

Rinse.
