Mag Threonate Hair Loss
Original post in this thread

I’m a 20 year old who wants to avoid any strong 5-AR Inhibitors like finasteride since I’m still developing until atleast 25 so im settling for weak ones like Nigella Sativa which I’ve been using for the past month (for general health) with the bonus of it being a weaker 5-ar inhibitor.
I stopped using cistance and tongkat bc I’ve heard they both raise DHT and accelerate hair loss by a large margin, however I have heard about magnesium L threonate blocking DHT from reaching the hair follicles and wanted to know how true that is or if I’m misinformed. Does anyone have any experience or knowledge in this regard? If it does I’d love to add alongside Nigella. Thanks!

It’s a side comment and slightly off topic, but in regard to people valuing ND, I am pretty sure a lot of people do value ND.
I do live in Europe and sometimes it is painful to pay import duties + VAT, but I can tell you that products are amazing and absolutely worth that extra cost.
When buying from ND, I do not have to worry that I will get a pile of shit, and that’s what I do appreciate

For sure. We have a very loyal core group of customers that recognizes what we do. The issue is that core group is merely a blip in the entire market. My frustration is more that the average consumer just doesn't care. They don't care if what they are taking is real, pure, or meets label claims. I really appreciate the support we have from the community here. I just wish the average consumer cared more. I also wish that the average brand took things more seriously. Contrary to how it comes across here, I don't like being a cynical ass. I hate how me bringing up shit all the time makes me look like some asshole calling everyone out. I'd rather be happily focusing on the positive scientific advancements, rather than trying to shed light on all the shadiness and bad actors. It's just after 11 years, nothing fundamentally changes. The industry organizations don't step up to force accountability. The brands don't take lab testing or quality control seriously. The average consumer keeps falling for the same tactics and lies they always do. More fake labs pop up, putting out fraudulent data. It's just dumbfounding to me how fraud and incompetence can sustain itself for so long. At least fucking prove the identity of the things you are selling! If you can't yet prove it, DON'T SELL IT till you can! I just don't understand why that's such a hard concept. I mean, I do. Making money is much easier when you don't do anything you need to prove what you are selling... but still.
