Saw palmetto
The fruits of saw palmetto have been shown in vitro to inhibit 5-alpha-reductase, which has significant implications in hair loss. 5-alpha-reductase may be responsible for converting testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT). When this happens the DHT tends to affect the way hair follicle cells generate (or not generate). There may be an inhibitory effect of saw palmetto on 5-alpha-reductase and would suggest it may be helpful to ward off hair loss.
Capsicum
Capsicum is the active ingredient in Cayenne peppers. Capsicum influences blood flow increasing the flow of nutrients to the tissues.
