TLDR Annurca apple extract may help with hair growth and prevent hair loss.

The literature review "Annurca Apple Extract - A Breakthrough in Alopecia Phytotherapy" analyzes 24 scientific articles from 2004 to 2023, discussing the potential of Annurca apple extract (AAE) in treating alopecia. AAE, rich in polyphenols like procyanidin B-2, has shown promise in promoting hair growth and improving skin health. In vitro studies showed AAE significantly upregulated keratin expression, while animal studies showed improved hair condition and increased hair growth factors. Clinical trials involving a total of 330 subjects demonstrated AAE's effectiveness in stimulating hair growth and inhibiting hair loss. However, the review calls for further research and meta-analyses to definitively assess AAE's effectiveness.
