Zinc and manganese have been highlighted many times for hair and skin purposes. Pretty much everyone knows zinc is helpful for skin conditions, but been finding some cool stuff on the use of topical manganese.
We already know zinc and managese are depleted in hair loss cases.
From Gbol:
Here is the study on using topical manganese for skin purposes (photo damaged). Also, I wonder how topical manganese would work when applied directly to hair, or even together with zinc?

Usually these are the majority of cases of hairloss. Of course there could be exceptions. This is why I said people need to get tested to see what their imbalance is and giving advice that will fit everyone is just stupid. You cant even do this for PFS, how can you do this for a hairloss.
I don;t like Peat putting people all in one body chemistry, I don't do it and I don't believe it. I outlined some of the major cases to try. but some people could have chloride deficiency for once. magnesium for another. All these deficiencies will act the same way
Majority will be helped with zinc and manganese
Some will be helped by copper and iron.
Mineral metabolism of 19 patients with hair loss was examined. The analysis showed manganese deficiency in all 19. Eighteen patients showed considerable problems with calcium absorption, and twelve patients had problems with their zinc metabolism. Specific nutritional and mineral therapy resulted in improved hair growth after 2-3 months of treatment. [Blaurock-Busch, E. Wichtige Nahrstoffe fur Gesunde Haut und Haare, Kosmetik Internat. 3/87]
