Mercola:

So the idea is that by stimulating the stem cells with special polypeptide signals you may be able to reverse this process and keep both your hair color, and your hair. I’m actually beta testing one of these polypeptide signal topical therapies right now, and my hair is slowly starting to come back in, so it’s pretty exciting stuff and most of the gray is disappearing. I look forward to giving you further updates on that product later on.

He mentioned a topical a few months ago and said he was going to provide updates and photos so it's great to see that he hasn't forgot as I was beginning to worry. Judging by the large amount of research you read CS how far do you think we are from something simple and effective to grow back hair? 10-15 years? What do you think it will be?

issac - From what I've look at, the know how is here, but the availability is unknown. I'm not sure if it's a matter of regulation, or other hurdles.

Here's one example of what is ahead:
