Post-viral Hair Support

Normal growth & shedding of human hair can be disrupted by the Sars-CoV-2 virus as it dysregulates normal Nitric Oxide production & distribution.
When this occurs, the telogen phase of the hair cycle is enabled and massive shedding can occur. In many patients this condition will resolve on its own in 6 months, but this is not always the case and may require intervention. Additionally, some people don't want to wait that long!
Our Post-viral Hair Support protocol uses three remedies from Traditional Chinese Medicine to inhibit viral replication, support healthy nitric oxide levels throughout the body and promote the normal regrowth of human hair:
1) Wind Tea (小柴胡加三仁汤 Xiao Chai Hu jia San Ren Tang) 30 teabags from Botanical Biohacking: harmonizes the Shaoyang layer to slay lingering viruses and flushes the lymphatic system. Sars-CoV-2 can linger for weeks or months in many of the body's tissues, disrupting normal Nitric Oxide Metabolism and inhibiting hair growth.
The main ingredient in Wind tea, 柴胡 Radix Bupleurum, contains key Saponins that inhibit viral replication by docking to the Receptor Binding Domain of Sars-CoV-2 and may be useful to address lingering issues following viral attack. Xiao Chaihu Tang is also often used by TCM providers against reactivation of Epstein-Barr Virus, a common comorbidity and potential cause of the syndrome known as "Long Covid".
2) Microgard Plus from Botanical Biohacking (1 vial) : a modern take on classical formulas for what we now call the "Standard American Diet"; rich in greasy, processed food; excess caloric intake and alcohol. The ingredients in Microgard plus promote a healthy microbiome (closely associated with nitric oxide homeostasis). The Sars-CoV-2 virus can populate the gastrointestinal tract and changes the GI microbiome to a unhealthy profile.
3) Danggui Yinzi from Treasure of the East, two 100-gram bottles: Traditionally used to promote hair regrowth and healthy skin & hair following febrile disease, the herbs in this formula have been clinically shown to express the gene VEGF and help regrow hair. Prolonged viral infection can damage the quality of the Blood, inhibiting normal return of follicles to the Anagen phase. Once the viral load is cleared and metabolic & digestive health are returned to optimal function, tonics like Danggui Yinzi can help to rebuild and restore the quality of the blood and nourish healthy new hair.
Purchased separately, these products would cost over $275! By bundling them together we are able to offer the complete package at a steep discounted rate.
Recommended Use:
Stage 1 (First 2 weeks):
-
Boil 2 bags each day of Wind tea in 1-2 quarts of water for 15 minutes; strain, allow the tea to cool to comfortable drinking temperature, and sip all day long. See linked video here for instructions on brewing tea.
-
Take 1 Layer (approximately 15 pellets) of Microgard Plus 3 times per day, with meals. See linked video here for instructions on taking pellets.
Stage 2 (Second 2 weeks, up to three months):
Take 4.5 grams (approximately 4 level spoons) of Danggui Yinzi powder three times per day, with meals. If you notice some hair regrowth during this time period but it is not yet full and lush, we recommend reordering Danggui Yinzi Powder (click here) and continue as desired for up to three months as tolerated.
Please note: We ship the Wind and Microgard Plus from our clinic in McMinnville, Oregon (USA). The Danggui Yinzi will ship separately from our partner Treasure of the East directly to you, and arrive in a separate package.
