The importance of thiocyanate and its effect on hair follicles

Thiocyanate is an amazing molecule and as old as life itself. We explain why it is so important in the hair follicles.

In the search for a solution to hair loss, we often come across complex products and technologies. But sometimes the answer to a problem can lie in something simple. Thiocyanate, a molecule discovered in saliva as early as the 19th century, could hold the key to healthy hair. We take a look at the role of thiocyanate and how it can help with hair loss.

The discovery and effect of thiocyanate

Thiocyanate isn't a new miracle cure that can stop hair loss*, but rather a molecule that has been known for centuries. Prof. Dr. Axel Kramer, an expert in the field of hospital hygiene, has studied the diverse applications of thiocyanate intensively. Although it appears simple at first glance, it possesses astonishing powers.

While there is currently no single solution for hair loss*, the effects of thiocyanate are diverse and complex. It stimulates cells, leading to anti-inflammatory effects and supporting cell stability. Furthermore, it contributes to the breakdown of harmful radicals and promotes healthy microflora on our skin and in the intestines.

Thiocyanate and hair loss*

Non-disease-related hair loss in men is often due to the sensitivity of hair follicles to the hormone dihydrotestosterone (DHT), while in menopausal women it is usually due to declining estrogen levels. Thiocyanate can play a crucial role here. It activates and strengthens the hair roots, making them less susceptible to the damaging effects of DHT and positively influencing the natural hair growth cycle. Thiocyanate also supports hair growth by reducing free radical inhibition.

The versatile mode of action of thiocyanate makes it a promising approach for various forms of hair loss, in both men and women.

Thiocyn: The solution for healthy hair

Based on the findings of Prof. Dr. Kramer, Thiocyn Hair Serum for Women and Thiocyn Hair Serum for Men were developed to stop hair loss and promote hair growth. The hair serum is applied specifically where thiocyanate is needed: on the scalp in areas affected by hair loss, or on the entire head when used preventively. Because thiocyanate is a natural component of the body, side effects are extremely rare.

Conclusion

Thiocyanate is a fascinating molecule that plays an important role in various aspects of our lives. Research shows that it may also be promising for hair loss.** Try the Thiocyn Starter Kit now and discover the benefits of this amazing molecule for yourself.
