Summary

NUTRAFOL® Women's Balance supplement is a novel nutraceutical supplement, scientifically formulated to specifically target the multiple underlying causes of hair loss and thinning in women. NUTRAFOL® Women's Balance capsules are comprised of primary and secondary ingredients, designed to restore hair health from the inside out. In addition to the necessary vitamins, minerals, proteins to support the nutritional needs of hair, it also contains nutraceutical-grade botanical bioactives that are standardized and clinically tested. The formulation leverages the multidimensional properties of power plants, which possess a full spectrum of phytochemicals with innate capacities to work in synergy with each other to fulfill their specific therapeutic roles. Using the latest biotechnology, these ingredients are bio-optimized and standardized, extracted with patented methods that preserve their bioactive integrity and made more bio-available and bio-absorbable via specific patented technologies.

Ingestion of NUTRAFOL® Women's Balance supplement over a six (6) month period will strengthen and promote the growth of hairs in perimenopausal, menopausal, and post-menopausal female subjects with self-perceived thinning hair when compared to baseline and those using the placebo tablet, with further improvement during the subsequent six (6) month open-label extension period.
