Hey op I shared this with a fellow friend and he responded with this

We don't even fully understand minoxidil's mechanism of action yet. We have a few competing theories, but not enough evidence to reach any real conclusions. You can't claim garlic follows the same mechanism when we don't even know what the mechanism is. Not to mention the fact that there hasn't been a single clinical study on garlic for hair loss, and I'd bet a pinky finger there never will be. **Edit:** Very dumb mistake where I typed "minoxidil" where I meant to say "garlic." This post obviously isn't worth proofreading a reply.

Any response to that?

"Dude, the garlic theory is not somthing new, it’s been well known for 15 years plus, I don’t know how old are you but, people have legitimately tried EVERYTHING for hair loss. Believe me if I could apply garlic on my head or ashwagandha cured my hair loss, I’d drop finasteride and minoxidil in a minute. It has nothing to do with closed mindedness, it’s to do that it’s clear as day that garlic does not work even 1/20th as well as minoxidil. Topical garlic has been around for decades as and millions of different people eat garlic for its other REAL benefits, yet not one is getting the effects anywhere near topical or oral minoxidil. Why has nobody every posted with pictures any results with topical peppermint oil on this subreddit..... isn’t it equivalent to 3% minoxidil.... OF COURSE ITS NOT."

Op go browse some anti hairloss forum and you will see how desperate males are to keep their hair. Some users there even lower their T to keep their hair. They use the same drugs as transgenders who go from mtf and have to take anti gyno medicine to stop them for getting breast. People there even drink minoxidil with alot of side effects.
If there is truly a good solution as a supplement or food against hairlos those people would have tried it and it would became mainstream. If that isnt the case, like the garlic trick than it wont work (that well). If you got some kind of vitamine or mineral deficiency then certain food can have tremendous results.

best bet against hairloss is living in a toxin free environment consuming ample amounts of high quality animal products, see my diet thread for more on this.

Also some guy has suggested a remedy for your sides

"That’s good, from anecdotal as long the breath is ok go for it I guess. Just some info to help but, I actually suffered similar sides besides the swollen eyes when I first jumped on minox. My suggestion and what I did was the following 1. Use once a day and start of at a extremely small dosage, I am talking 0.25-0.5 ml a day, that in of itself will still be better then garlic and very unlikely to give you sides due to only having applied 12.5-25 mg of minox on your head 2. Mix with retin a and apply retin a on your hairline to increase sulfotransferase, which actually makes you a better responder and allows you to use less of a drug burden aka minoxidil. Meaning less going systemic 3. Microneedling every week and do mirconeedling at 1.5 mm, along with increasing growth factors on the scalp, it also increases sulfotransferase, again making you a stronger responder to minoxidil. Also allows you to use less of the drug but, still get results, and have a lower chance of minoxidil going systemic. Slowly I built up to 1.5 ml at night and have had not problem with eye bags, collagen,fatigue, or restlessness You can still continue with garlic, it’s harmless and has benefits not including hair. Just the breath may be a problem"

Anyways in conclusion to this post garlicmaxx is cope

the idea is that we don't FULLY understand minoxidils mechanism

my response is that we understand that it works via opening potassium channels, same as some other stuff that is used for hairloss / regrowth.

raw garlic opens potassium channels too.
 
All of you saying you're eating garlic bulbs every day, how do you prepare the garlic? There's no way you're biting in to and sucking down an entire raw garlic bulb. I've eaten it raw, chewing it 3 pieces at a time, it opens up and sets fire on your nerves which feels like something you've never felt before. Try it and you will understand
I peel one clove with my fingernails, then just chew that fucker. Its not a pleasant experience but the burning on my tongue only lasts for a few seconds. Just do it IMO - youll get used to it

In response to this

Yeah - but have people tried things in combination?

The idea is to create an environment where hair grows faster than it falls out.
The "big 3" targets this:
1. dht inhibition to stop balding (i.e. fin)
2. stimulate regrowth (i.e. minoxidil)
3. anti inflammatory and anti dht topical (i.e. nizoral)

So i'm not saying don't do anything for 1. (i'm on fin)
Raw garlic would be a 'natural' alternative for 2:
I couldn't use minoxidil, i couldn't sleep using it at night. Raw garlic has a similar profile of benefits (opens potassium channels). I'm also using peppermint oil and derma needling to stimulate growth.

Interesting, thanks for sharing.

I think that conclusion is too quick to draw though, i will continue with raw garlic for 3 months (minimum for any hair related experiment) and report back. If it doesn't work i'll try this lower dose minox idea.

Do you skin the garlic before eating it or do you mean you need to consume it completely raw?
 
In addition to OP's post:

Why garlic is good for acne


Garlic has been used medicinally for centuries. A few research studies have shown that garlic can be useful for some medical conditions.

Garlic has antibacterialTrusted Source, antifungal, antiviral, and antiseptic properties from allicin. Allicin helps to kill the bacteria causing acne. It also helps to reduce swelling and inflammation, and improve blood circulation. These beneficial effects allow the skin to receive more nutrients. Garlic also has thiosulfinates, which can act as an antimicrobial. Many believe that with regular use, it clears the skin.

Garlic also contains other vitamins and minerals that are believed to combat acne, like vitamin C, vitamin B-6, selenium, copper, and zinc (used to control oily substances). Garlic has also been shownTrusted Source to have potential effects on several medical conditions like cancer, psoriasis, and wound healing. Some studies have shown that garlic has anti-inflammatory properties. These properties are believed to help reduce the inflammation of acne.

Btw you should consider honeymaxxing aswell since you are garlicmaxxing for hair. Warm tea with honey in it is not only delicious but also contains vitamin C which is awesome for hair quality. Honey is also rich in antioxidant properties, which enables it to reduce hair breakage.

Also never rub with a towel when drying your hair after a shower. I noticed I used to do this up until just last week and ever since idk if it is placebo but I'm noticing my hair being slightly thicker and overall better quality / easier to style.

Just my thought tbh, if you're gonna do the whole hairmaxxing this with natural remedies like garlic you should consider adding other natural supplements aswell because why not if it can benefit your hairmaxxing.
 
So it already came to this.
I am brought to my knees.
I fully embrace and accept enemy the garlic which i swore to never eat

Guess they were right. Never say never

It's time to garlicmaxx now

Eating a clove of raw garlic every day is like using minodixil

I hopped on fin recently, no sides for about 2 months. Then i started minoxidil on top of it, and sides instantly. couldn't sleep and felt like I was always hyped up / like under my eyes was swollen and weird so I quit


Still on fin, no sides


BUT i did some research and eating a raw garlic clove is similar to minixodil, look it up

EDIT: Actually brb I will find and post some studies since I am OP

EDIT 2:

"My good friends grandpa is 90+ years old with a full head of hair. He looks like something out of an italian mob movie. Anyway he's eats a clove of garlic everyday of his life and always has since he was young. He associates having a full thick head of hair at his age to eating garlic everyday. He also attributes be in such good health to it as well. Every other person in the family has no hair so it make me wonder why this guy is still a norwood 0.... :shakehead:"

"Actually he is like 90 something... and always has a different girlfriend. I think he still bangs... or atleast finger bangs them"


EDIT 3:
Garlic opens the potassium channels. It is EXACTLY the same principle of action as Minoxidil and even significantly better.:

Additionally, alliin demonstrated potent inhibition of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-induced angiogenesis in the CAM model: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/16351512/

Garlic inhibits DHT (bald wearers have significantly increased DHT levels in the scalp due to the high histamine levels): https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/27191676


Garlic inhibits P. acnes (increased levels were observed in subjects with Androgenetic Alopecia):

Garlic works against Malassezia (as well as ketoconazole!). Bald people have significantly increased Malassezia fungi!: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/16690223/

Garlic acts as a potassium channel opener (same principle of action as Minoxidil!) And promotes blood circulation and muscle relaxation: http://www.scielo.br/scielo.php?script=sci_arttext&pid=S0102-695X2012000500017

Garlic contains two prostaglandins: A2 and F1a (prostaglandins, except D2, promote hair growth!):

Garlic inhibits mast cells and prostaglandin D2 (bald people have significantly increased mast cells and PGD2 in the scalp!):

Garlic has an anti-fibrotic effect by inhibiting TGF-beta (bald people have increased TGF-beta and 4x more collagen in the bald areas!):


TLDR; if you want to hairmaxx and finger bang in your 90s maxx, hop on the raw garlic cloves.

nice thread, but why not just take garlic extract? also opening potassium channels is very legit for hair.

tgf is a potent stimulator of collagen released by fibroblasts, i think this is partly what might makes minoxidil have side effects that effect skin quality. that rat study shows that garlic inhibits tgf, much like minoxidil. This very good for hair but idk how it effects the skin.

What we need to do is explore the biochemical pathways between hair and skin. That way we can develop a solid looksmaxing routine rather than taking supplements each day hopping they work, or ending up with unwanted side effect by maxxing out one physical trait for another.

Theres beneficial things to the raw garlic like enzymes etc but tbh I havent looked into it that thoroughly, might be worth trying for guys who smell heaps from it.

I used to eat raw garlic, just like that. Smash it up a bit and then chew it in my mouth. Later tried adding a bit of honey. Been doing that for a few months, till I got tired of it and lost the motivation.
I never got used to its taste, but after taste is sort of nice. The garlic juice has this sweetness to it, I guess? Also very sticky.
Biggest problem, is that it didn't make me feel well and made me burpy? I always feel the garlic in my stomach, otherwise I never "feel" food in my stomach, like burping and such. I eat and I forget, but if I eat onion/garlic - problems arise.
yeah I love garlic but had to stop eating it coz it fucked my digestion

I genuinely cant believe you thought any of the stuff you claimed in this thread would be helpful at all or would looksmax anyone

You legitimately started by posting some of the worst anecdotal evidence possible as your first proof of this working, like as if this grandpa didnt start balding because of genes like come on man
And then you start posting """evidence""" of it working like minoxidil when even the working mechanism of minoxidil isnt entirely understood.

And now just looking at the protocol your using now just fucking lol, the only thing that will be carrying that entire protocol is fin, the caffeine will do close to nothing and the nizoral wont do much unless you have genuine scalp inflammation.

Its genuinely disgraceful you can post this stuff on the looksmaxxing section and encourage people that theyll do anything with their hair eating a glove of garlic like jfl
