LONGECITY

Im wandering if those of you getting results are continuing to experience results as far as new growth?What about thickening?Is it making your hair thicker at all?
Thanks

I've just finished two periods of 3 months, with a three week interval in between. The first period was 3 x 33mg and the second was 1 x 100mg + Chitosan. The latter period also included the use of Orlistat (3x120mg) and Gingko Biloba (1x100mg). The results with regards to hair growth was:
Period 1:
Whitish down in locations where hair growth had completely disappeared, guesstimated to be about 1-3 mm depending on location (see earlier post for more info: http://www.imminst.o...amp;pid=319855)
Period 2:
The white down has grown more pronounced and thicker. I would guess it's now about 2-5 mm depending on location. It has not shown any tendency to change color yet, though. I think my hair grows somewhat faster than before, but this can be a subjective feeling rather than an objective observation.

Thanks for replying....How many of these whitish hairs have grown in total approx.?And do you notice any thickening of existing hair?i sure think this would be good applied topically

My hairline hadn't receded more than a few centimeters before I started with AIV, most of it before turning 20. Between then and now (38) it has remained constant. I would say that this whitish down corresponds to about every hair I've ever lost. But please note, it's "white down" and not yet real hair. Personally I've not used AIV in order to stimulate hair growth, but in order to try rejuvenating my immune system. If the down at some point turns into real hair, it's a bonus - but it's not the main purpose of me using AIV.

That's encouraging. Not only is hair loss a traditional folk marker for general aging, but Geron Corporation has reported that telomerase in hair follicles (which I take it are one of the few tissues in humans that naturally express it) is inhibited by their telomerase-inhibition drug candidate. Geron is the company that has found telomerase-activation substances in early lab research in their Asian joint venture, but it's also got a much more advanced drug candidate for telomerase inhibition, and is wrapping up some Phase I trials and preparing to start Phase II trials on various cancers. So they're interested in a better way of monitoring whether it's working than taking frequent tumor biopsies, and it's good news that telomerase in hair follicle cells responds the same way as telomerase in tumor cells.

While they're not nearly as far along in their telomerase activation science, it seems plausible to me that telomerase in moribund hair follicle cells responds the same way as telomerase in all the other parts of the body we want to rejuvenate.

Has the down continued to get longer and continued to remain white over these past seven months? Maybe the melanocytes are not responding. From what I've heard, those are the cells whose death causes gray hair as we age (and whose deregulated growth causes melanoma, the deadliest skin cancer).
