modesto said...This woman was in this CBS4 report - 53-year-old Beth Skelly of Fort Lauderdale - and she says it made her grey go away. I have just ordered 3 bottles for $70 from this address: http://www.wakeupontime.com/shop/product_info.php?products_id=42 It has the following ingredients: Vitamin B6 (as pyridoxine hydrochloride) - 10 mg, Folic acid - 400 mcg, Biotin - 300 mcg, Pantothenic acid (as calcium pantothenate) - 300 mg, Zinc (oxide) - 10 mg, Catalase - 5000 iu, Horsetail (7% extract) - 100 mg, Saw palmetto (40-45% extract) - 300 mg, PABA (para-aminobenzoic Acid) - 200 mg, L-Ttyrosine - 200 mg, Plant sterols (45% beta-sitosterol) - 100 mg, Nettle root extract - 100 mg, Chlorophyll - 10 mg, Fo Ti (powder) - 10 mg, Barley grass - 10 mg. Interesting composition including pure catalase but I am very pessimistic too that it is effective.
I will keep you posted too if any results.
Hello everybody,
the product above has the same Reversacor ingredients and amount (the product are identical), Reversacor is another supplement for gray hair, and I'm trying reversacor from 5 months without effects.
Save your money, I think that catalase in that form is not available in the body | | Back to Top | | |

| Missing Key Value : en-US, 641 2/3/2010 5:19 PM (GMT -4) | | OK...in case some here haven't noted my success...I will be 60 in June and my hair is still naturally brown. I attribute this to the daily practice of the headstand and a good diet with supplements. I do note gray coming in when I start to take in more of certain substances like coffee and refined foods. So the headstand in itself won't do it--it's the combination of diet and headstand, plus I think doing the Five Rites of Rejuvenation has played a role also.
Go ahead, try the headstand. Do it up against a wall to begin with if you have trouble with it, or use something like anti-gravity boots. While you are upside down, visualize yourself with a full head of hair in your natural color! You won't see results overnight, but so what? Persistence pays off! | | Back to Top | | |

Jen said...brm, I don't take the niacin specifically for recoloring hair, but as a growth hormone releaser. For this purpose, 40 mg. is insufficient. You could do a search on niacin + growth hormone. Anyway, I'm guessing that, everything else being equal, the headstand practiced regularly will help keep one's hair color. Here is an article that mentions this, along with many other benefits: http://www.naturalnews.com/023880.html OK Jen. I'm gonna try that. Jen, how d'you do it personally? Morning or evening or both? Do you stand literally on your head against a wall, or do you keep your balance standing on your arms (much more tricky). How long do you have to keep the pose?
Thx. | | Back to Top | | |

| Missing Key Value : en-US, 641 2/4/2010 3:08 PM (GMT -4) | | I think the main thing we are up against here is not the impossibility of reversing or preventing graying of the hair--it is the BELIEF that it's impossible. Quantum physics has shown that our experience is formed out of our BELIEFS.
Here I am, age 59, and I have not gone gray. I don't attribute this to the headstand
alone (as I already said) but to a combination of factors--the headstand, the Rites, diet and supplements, but probably most of all, desire to retain youthfulness and openness to the possibility. You have to have a strong desire and maintain this openness in the face of the strong mass beliefs (as shown by your post, and others here) that gray hair, and aging in general, is inevitable and irreversible.
If anyone truly desires to reverse their gray hair, or any other changes in their body or life, PERSISTENCE is the key. People give up all too easily. "I tried this, I tried that, it didn't work."
Don't give up! Resolve that you will do what it takes, and keep going!

| Missing Key Value : en-US, 641 2/8/2010 11:26 PM (GMT -4) | | Hi everybody, I've been following this thread for about 6 months ever since I started getting white hairs on my beard, mostly in the goatee and sideburn areas. It's not really a big deal considering I can count the grays on the top of my head or anywhere else, despite being in my forties. Still it would be nice to hold them off as long as possible.
Obviously there doesn't appear to be much in the way of real treatments yet until they come up with a delivery system for getting catalase to the hair follicles, which I'm sure the technology exists to do now. It's just a matter of someone applying it in a product and getting results. In the meantime there is this novel treatment I'm considering using and was wondering if anyone has heard of or tried it:
http://www.adistem.com/peptide.html
They claim it restores hair to its original color in addition to regrowing hair. Please be aware I'm not affiliated with these people in any way but am only interested in feedback on what others might think of its possibilities. When I do decide to go with it I'll be sure to keep posting updates. One guy on this forum named hair4now (toward the bottom) says he is seeing his grays turn back:

I want to take a moment to explain the sequence of events that transpires from the moment you eat your food to that same food becoming the energy that gives us the ability to perform at our very best. You first eat a meal consisting of carbohydrates, Proteins and Fats. The carbohydrates enter the stomach and are broken down into sugars called glucose. The glucose then enters the bloodstream through the small intestines. As blood sugar levels increase, a signal is sent to the pancreas to disperse insulin into the blood. For our purpose I will refer to insulin as the hand that removes the sugars as well as proteins and fats and stores them within as well as externally on the body. The cells of the body have what's called receptor sites. These are the areas that receive and accept the insulin. The process is literally that simple!
For one to understand the contents of this page one must first understand how insulin works. It is even more simple than the digestion process. There are only three places on the human body where insulin attempts to store blood sugar. Either in the muscle, liver and most often the FAT cell. The explanation is as simple as this.... When a higher amount is released, insulin stores the nutrients as fat and when a lesser amount is released, insulin stores nutrients into the proper targeted area. In fact, this is the sole metabolic process that every creature on Earth uses to store fat. Without enough insulin, fat can never be stored!!! Never forget this fact as it will serve as one of your most valued tools in your tool box!!!
One must also understand that with anything we put in our body, even that single cup of coffee we drink every morning, the body will adapt to it as it will the caffeine and a second cup will soon be needed. Using a drug addict as an example, after a while the individual will have to consume more of the desired drug in order to achieve the same high. We as humans eat food from the time we are born until the time we die. Over time the receptor site loses its sensitivity to insulin and doesn't allow nutrients into the muscle. Whether its insulin or heroine its virtually the same scenario. Just by age 30 if all we ate was just three meals and just one single snack each day we will have attempted to send insulin into the cell over FORTY THREE THOUSAND TIMES. It is inevitable that the cell no longer has the capabilities to receive insulin as it did in its teens. At this point the body will begin signaling for more insulin to allow entry into the cell and you are now in the initial stages of insulin resistance or Type II diabetes and it only gets worse from there. We already understand that fat is only stored with enough insulin present and for all you that question the mid age weight gain, well you now know its EXACT cause!!!
THIS IS WHY YOUR HAIR BEGINS TO GREY AND IS COMPLETELY REVERSIBLE!!!!!
I first want to discuss glycation or what most know as the aging process. This is a subject that gets very little press time in the fitness / bodybuilding arena. However it is the pinnacle of events that us life extensionists base our entire lives around. Its inevitable that the process of glycation will inevitably occur in every body with each meal you eat once you exhibit the slightest bit of insulin resistance. Its basically the on switch that literally stops our bodies from growing bigger and stronger and signals it to begin to die!
A Nobel prize in medicine was just awarded in 2009 for the identification of an enzyme that keeps the cell from deteriorating from GLYCATION...I have developed a formulation of food bearing nutrients that are the CO FACTORS to the insulin as well as the receptor site, both at the cell as well as the brain, that allows for a continued sensitivity at the receptor site as well as an increased level of integrity to the insulin itself which then disables the process of glycation which also stops the bodies ability to hold as well as store fat!!!

| Missing Key Value : en-US, 641 2/10/2010 2:21 PM (GMT -4) | | @Tipsta your thought track is very interesting, i only think this because its been explained to me that diabetes effects the entire body, and one would have to understand every aspect of the human body to even start to thinking about it. I think that the internet is truly about sharing. Sooo... is the answer a raw diet... etc. your quote is below...
"I have developed a formulation of food bearing nutrients that are the CO FACTORS to the insulin as well as the receptor site, both at the cell as well as the brain, that allows for a continued sensitivity at the receptor site as well as an increased level of integrity to the insulin itself which then disables the process of glycation which also stops the bodies ability to hold as well as store fat!!!"
I love to en-prove my health and at the same time turn back to my original colored hair strands... as would many of us here...
@Jen ... might you be on a raw diet or vegan... if so how long have you been? | | Back to Top | | |

| Missing Key Value : en-US, 641 2/11/2010 11:19 AM (GMT -4) | | The human body is a regenerative creature. Meaning it is in a state of repair on a minute by minute basis. For example, If you cut yourself the skin regenerates and heals. If you break a bone it regenerates and heals. If you have surgery, it regenerates and heals. It also does this without injury taking place. Every so many days the external layer of your joints sheds itself and regenerates and renews itself. Every so many days your skin exfoliates and new cells are regenerated. Virtually every part of our bodies are regenerating constantly even as you read this. With this being pure fact its obvious that GLYCATION is the truly the leading cause for the integrity of our skin, joints and virtually every cell in our bodies to become compromised INCLUDING YOUR HAIR!!!!
Stop the damage/glycation and the greys will grow out.............
This is something I face every day and just because most do not know the functions of the body and how to resensitize receptor sites they find it very hard to believe what I accomplish on an ongoing basis.... | | Back to Top | | |

| Missing Key Value : en-US, 641 2/11/2010 5:44 PM (GMT -4) | | So what are the nutrients that stop glycation, in your view, Tipsta?
BigBraLover (interesting handle!), no I don't eat a solely raw vegan diet. I just eat healthy overall--well, most of the time anyway. Also, I apply Dr, Benjamin Frank's findings about diet and RNA/DNA. I suspect Dr. Perricone drew on Dr. Frank's work, with his emphasis on eating salmon. Dr Frank recommended eating a lot of fish, especially sardines, which are the highest source of RNA/DNA. There can be (depending on the individual) recoloring of hair along with all the other "youthing" effects of Dr. Frank's approach.
Chlorella is also an excellent source of RNA/DNA. Anyway, I recommend Dr. Frank's book: "Dr. Frank's No-Aging Diet."
And, of course, the headstand or shoulderstand! | | Back to Top | | |

A few other foods that help with hair color: raw wheat germ, liver, sunflower seeds, seaweed. | | Back to Top | | |
