About 10 years ago, in addition to a myriad of symptoms my hair started to fall by the hand fulls. I was in my mid forties. A hair loss physician asked me to try a supplement before upping the ante. The supplement was Regenemax - which at the time only contained choline-stablized orthosilicic acid (it now also contains biotin). The supplement directions state to take two capsules per day. The doc recommended 1 capsule 5 days a week. The supplement started working almost immediately to prevent hair loss, and soon I could feel new growth. Within a year my hair was growing well, and beautiful.
Over the years I tried cheaper substitutes, namely Biosil, and after about 3 months my hair started falling out. At one point Regenemax came out with a liquid version - mg for mg was about half the cost - so I switched. Again after about 3-5 months my hair started falling. This time I phoned the manufacturer because I was concerned that I may have received a counterfeit product. The rep discovered that the product was genuine, but he made the comment that he didn't understand why the company had decided on a liquid version because the active ingredient is extremely difficult to stabilize. I went back to the capsules, and the fall stopped and growth returned.
I'm concerned, due to comments on this forum, about the choline. Currently, I'm working on strengthening my veins and using MSM. I believe that using the CSOA for over 10 years has definitely improved my collagen as I've always looked younger than my age-until recently; quickly I've aged and my veins strength is very poor. I'm not sure if I should increase or decrease the CSOA, but I decreased it recently and hair loss was immediate.
