Best Answer

Timonacic acid is a conditioner invented in France. It is a powerful antioxidant and has been shown to be a miracle acid for reversal of cancers, various skin ailments and other uses. It is made by a reaction between formaldehyde and cysteine proteins from keratin. It is NOT formaldehyde! It is a Thiazolidine 4-carboxylic acid. It is used to donate cysteine proteins to hair for repair. Because it is a ringed molecule, it can open up and form sulphur bonds with cysteine in hair. The remaining part of the acid (carboxyl group) then rebonds with excess keratin in solution to form more Timonacic acid. This way, it remains as a long term conditioning agent in hair.
