A cure for baldness could be on the horizon. Researchers from Taiwan University say they have discovered a serum that could potentially regrow hair in just 20 days. The study, published in the journal Cell Metabolism, showed that fat cells under the skin can restart hair growth.
The researchers used mouse skin samples to monitor changes to the fat tissue under the skin, as well as to the hair follicles and the cells that help hair grow, after they caused small injuries to trigger certain reactions, according to a press release.
After skin injury, fat cells began breaking down stored fat in a process called lipolysis. Fatty acids were then released into the skin, which acted as a signal for hair stem cells to grow. When the scientists stopped the fat cells from breaking down fat, it prevented hair from growing.

I stick with the ideas in the video on that page “5 foods that will help your hair grow” and ignore the rest. Yummy food keeps hair healthy. Food that I like anyway and that I actually eat. BTW I have plenty of hair so I can’t be so wrong.
**Problem is that it comes out of my ears and nose. Makes for the world’s worst combover.**
LOLOL!
If you know about that, then “LBFM” means something to you. Huh?
I will say that Free Republic is family. Be polite to family I would ask.
JimRob would say "Knock it off!" Obsession with baldness? I'm 71, have like 12 grey hairs where my fraternal twin brother has completely white hair.
I tip $20 to my guy for all the hair he has to cut off.
Now, I've got friends that were balding in their 20's, their 30's, etc. They adapted. They had no choice. Like I said I don't really know where I'm going here.
"Hair to spare" - Saw an ad - just spray it on and it takes the gray hairs to dark. Hope its expensive.
The point: Like race, skin color, beauty, even intelligence are God-given attributes, count your blessings but remember its what you were born with, not talent, sociability, no you were just born that way. Use your gifts, whatever they may be for good, for others.
Do not lord over less fortunate souls. Sorry I'm in a bad mood. Have a nice day.
Please let this work. There is nothing worse that all the baldies walking around. Yuck. I like men with hair.
Nice thick, long hair. Men don’t like fat chicks, well I don’t like bald men. Just a fact.
I shave mine off....

Cheer up pard. Don’t be in bad mood. 71 ain’t doing to bad. You probably have known more people worth a damn than 90% of the less than 40’s crowd. We lived through the 60’s and 70’s. Seen Elvis, moon walks, Rush Limbaugh. Dude God loves us. Hell I wouldn’t date a lady that would put up with me, my wife stays cause I hid the money she thinks I got that she has. 😊 regards.
“This One Weird Trick Will....”
Women have a different perspective.
Don’t know if you want to hide the bucks from the gal.
Mine knows that if I go she’s all taken care of, no probate no fuss. What’s mine is hers just with her ID.
She’s treating me very nice as she’s secure.
Just a note, hide the full power of attorney, in Florida, its a done deal full power, no conditions - Immediately effective - something wrong here. She’s got it and she can sell everything do whatever with my assets. Really weird. I could be standing up saying I’m fine but she’d have the paper. Total Control.
Notarized and everything but its the last thing she’ll find.
Not with the regular docs.
;-)
LOL... I do now.
Thanks to Ancestry.com I found a distant cousin who was a ‘Dust-off’ helicopter piolet for two tours in Vietnam and gave his life while saving other’s on April 7th, 1970... Here’s to hoping he got plenty of ‘loving’ before his final mission... This November 11th I will be thinking of him and the many others who gave their lives for the cause of freedom.
After 54 years with the old ball and chain. If I got it she tells me where I put it. I truely don’t care. I’ve known men who crossed Normandy beach, men who survived Iwo Jima, the Tet offensive, one man who lived through the taking of Okinawa on a tin can getting hit by Kama Kazi’s. I’ve known men you ride the river with. Rode USN nuclear submarines. God loves us pard. We got lucky.
Sad part is some of our people don’t know it. Be safe.
Well, I got a friend who passed away from agent orange (IMO) that got caught on patrol and tried to get out of a hot LZ. He dove out of two rescue choppers back into a rice paddie before the third one got him out. Gary said “it was a hot LZ when he got there. It got hotter every effing time he dove back into it. “ there were no good times, just times to tide you over till things get bad again. It’s called war for a reason. Regards
All’s well - Thanks. You’ve got mail. ;-)
