Yes. Thymic involution (TI) is, put simply, the shrinking of
your thymus gland as your grow older. The rate of TI directly
correlates to the rate at which you lose your hair.
Another interesting fact is that, as TI progresses, the
hormones, such as testosterone, also increase, leading the majority
of scientists to believe that hair loss is due to hormones.
I believe, as a bioengineer and avid nutritionist, that thymic
involution is the REAL cause of hair loss. A small group of
scientists, particularly in Europe, also believe this. Studies have
also confirmed that thymic peptide levels around hair follicles are
directly related to the continued growth of hair, and thymic
peptides applied topically can regrow hair.
Another thing that I've found is that TI is genetic, just like
scientists say that male pattern baldness is.
Could male pattern baldness be caused by genetically preordained
thymic involution?
There are only a few things that can halt or reverse thymic
involution that I have found:
The first is colostrum, preferably "first milking"
colostrum.
The second is thymus gland - organic is best taken from range
fed cows. The third, and I'm not quite sure this would reverse
thymic involution, but it's definitely good for thymus function, is
zinc, which binds to thymic peptides to activate them.
