Inositol, a B vitamin, is a natural sugar known as muscle sugar and is a cell membrane stabilizer and antioxidant which has a protective effect on hair follicles, perhaps by protecting them from membrane damage caused by oxidized cholesterol in the scalp, or from destruction by clock-triggered lysosomes (proteolytic enzymes).

For sexual performance, stamina can be increased by taking certain nutrients, including calcium pantothenate (vitamin B-5). Vasopressin, or antidiuretic hormone (ADH), has several known functions, including regulation of electrolytes, and urine volume and in very high intravenous doses, blood pressure. In low dosages (16 I.U. per day), it has been shown to stimulate memory and […]
