About very strong topical colloidal silver (and other similar topicals)

Has anyone tried this?

I've tried CS but only weak CS.

Perhaps making strong CS, letting the silver settle to the bottom and then rubbing it onto the scalp would help, so it's like a strong silver paste? Might get expensive though lol

Thing is, silver is quite a good way to permanently protect an area from infection. That's why they put it in fridges.

The main issue with using antifungals on the scalp is that they absorb into the skin relatively fast and are gone. Anything that's too big to absorb or that's slow release (probably harder to do) may solve the problem, and perhaps silver particles could be too big to absorb?

Thoughts?

after trying many topicals

I settled on caffeine, niacin and aspirin topical.

I don't believe fungi cause hair loss anyway

or just take rejuveplex

My understanding is that the DHT increases sebum and then the sebum gets infected.

Is your topical working?

that's not my understanding of DHT.

well, I would say yes, it does seem to be doing something. niacin/caffeine are very good for mitochondria too.

I don't even think sebum is causing hair loss in men

think of each hair follicle as a mini organ,

that must be

maintained
preserved
and enhanced

aspirin/caffeine/niacin will also react with pgd2 in the scalp

Adenosine is superior to niacin and caffeine. Believe me that your topical won't get you anywhere - but please prove me wrong.

adenosine
ribose
niacin

all act very similarly when applied topically

How would I use it ? add adenosine powder to a solution ?

could I use ribose powder instead ?

I believe topical niacin DOES work, however, there may be stronger things out there

It's certainly a good find. I will investigate it further.

I have done some more "digging"

here's what I now know

"
I am not sure why you would want to use adenosine instead of niacin in SolBan. Since the product contains caffeine, adenosine and caffeine antagonize each other, so I am not sure what the cumulative effect will be. Niacinamide itself has good effects on hair, so it needs to be in SolBan. You can experiment if you want and let me know if you have good results with adenosine instead of niacinamide."

perhaps it would work by itself, however, I am not ready at this moment in time to test out a new topical since I need to keep track of my results and don't want to interrupt my hair loss experiments and schedules

Sebum is a huge cause in hairloss. Fin works in similar ways reducing sebum production.

Less sebum less hairloss. Sebum is a source of food for bacteria causing inflammation causing scaring, hence why immune suppressants drugs work for hairloss.

In my case sexual abstinence reduced sebum to almost zero, so if anyone wants to reduce it... give a try

Anyone actually want to talk about the topic of the thread? ¬_¬

In that case, have you've tried Protopic cream? Not sure about how safe this is though.
