    TLDR Eating peptides from certain shellfish may help wounds heal faster by reducing inflammation.
    The study "Oral delivery of marine shellfish supramolecule peptides for skin wound healing" investigated the wound healing properties of peptides extracted from Farrer's Scallop (Azumapecten farreri) and Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas). The researchers used animal protease and controllable hydrolysis technology to obtain randomized self-assembling supramolecular material of peptides from these shellfish. The peptides, referred to as APs (AAPs and CAPs), were found to act as antioxidants, procoagulants, and promoters of epidermal cell proliferation. In vivo experiments showed that oral administration of these peptides effectively promoted wound healing by inhibiting inflammatory responses. This study suggests that marine-derived peptides could potentially be used in wound healing treatments.

      in Treatment  7 upvotes 6 days ago
      The conversation is about hair loss treatments, specifically using dutasteride and oral minoxidil, and exploring additional vitamins and supplements like vitamin D, zinc, biotin, and omega-3 to support hair health. Users suggest getting a blood panel to identify deficiencies and emphasize the importance of protein and overall nutrition.
