learn procapil

Can a liquid formula with Procapil do more than your usual multivitamin? Procapil is a cosmetic ingredient, not an approved hair-loss drug: the published studies on it are small and test it in combination with caffeine or platelet-rich plasma, so none isolates its own effect, and the percentages quoted in marketing come from the ingredient supplier's unpublished studies. Vitamins are reported to help hair only where there is a deficiency, so the two are aimed at different problems rather than ranked against each other.
