Tricomin by Peak Nutrition Ltd
Author: Andrew AdlerTricomin is a copper-peptide non-drug alternative for hair loss. It delivers a specific copper-peptide molecule to the hair follicle, thereby stimulating its growth. Tricomin comes in a blue liquid spray that contains a copper-peptide molecule usually formed by bonding copper ions to protein molecules. Developed by ProCyte Corporation, a publicly held healthcare company specializing in copper peptide technology, Tricomin had its origins in a wound-healing product. Researchers noticed that animals being treated with a copper peptide wound healing product were having their hair growth stimulated. This discovery led to the company to develop the Tricomin product as a specific hair growth product.
Studies have demonstrated the positive effects of Tricomin on hair follicles. During growth phase, the base of the hair follicle -- dermal papilla -- is richly endowed with substances such as collagen and various proteins. These substances are virtually absent during the resting phase. Copper has been shown to stimulate the cells creditworthy for production of these substances. Tricomin works by targeting the delivery of copper to the base of the follicle.
In addition to the hair growth stimulating effect there is also evidence that Copper is linked to these necessary biological processes critical to the health of the skin and hair:
Melanin production (pigmentation)
Energy metabolism
Scavenging of damaging free radicals (SOD)
Cross linking of collagen and elastin
Inhibition of 5-alpha reducta
Interestingly Tricomin is a very well tolerated product with no known side effects. It is non-irritating and can safely be used by men, women and children. Since copper is a nutrient required by the body, Tricomin does not contain any drugs that could cause harmful side effects. It is also well suited for any type of hair loss.
Tricomin works well on its own for treating fine or thinning hair, but in individuals who suffer from Androgenic Alopecia Tricomin works best to compliment other therapies like Propecia or Rogaine. It helps soothe an irritated scalp and is also an alterative treatment for individuals who dont want to use a drug treatment like Rogaine.
