Name Ingredients:
Pea sprout extract, as the name suggests, is taken from the sprouts of pea plants, otherwise known as Pisum sativum L. It is believed to have a variety of beneficial effects, some of which are linked to hair health.
Key insights:
- Pea sprout extract contains biotin, l-arginine, and other nutrients that have antioxidant properties.
- The in vitro and in vivo evidence suggests that some components of pea sprouts have properties that might benefit hair follicle growth.
- The clinical evidence shows that both dietary consumption and topical application of pea sprout extract can reduce hair loss in participants. Furthermore, analysis revealed that the expression of two key genes involved in hair growth (FGF7 and Noggin) was increased with the application of pea sprout extract. However, the subsequent effect on hair follicle growth was not measured.
- Our experience tracking members: Pea Sprout Extract is not enough to improve hair growth outcomes.
