The study by Zanzottera et al. evaluates the efficacy of a nutritional supplement standardized in fatty acids and phytosterols on hair loss and health in both women and men. This supplement includes omega 3-6-9, antioxidants, and natural inhibitors of 5α-reductase, such as dihydrotestosterone (DHT) reducers similar to finasteride and Serenoa repens. In vitro analyses confirmed its potential to lower DHT levels. Additionally, a 6-month in vivo study with 30 participants demonstrated a significant improvement in hair density for 83.3% of subjects. The trichoscopy results indicated increased hair diameter and density, better vascularization, and reduced greasiness, leading to a 93% satisfaction rate among participants without any adverse effects. These findings suggest the supplement's effectiveness in enhancing hair health beyond solely addressing the 5α-reductase pathway.

Nutritional supplement with omega 3-6-9 improves hair health and reduces hair loss. It shows similar 5α-reductase inhibition to finasteride.
