“Nutrient” + “bioactive" = “Nutraceutical". Nutraceuticals are natural, bio-optimized ingredients—which is exactly what you'll find in our hair growth supplements along with vitamins and minerals. They're standardized to contain guaranteed amounts of bioactive phytonutrients, and tested for efficacy and safety in clinical studies showing specific bioactivities, health benefits, and growth improvements. We took the extra step to patent our Nutraceutical ingredient blend, too.

No, Nutrafol is 100% drug-free.

No! In fact, part of the inspiration behind Nutrafol was that one of our founders was seeking an alternative approach for his own hair growth issues after experiencing years of sexual dysfunction caused by other therapies. Nutrafol is made with vitamins, minerals, and natural ingredients that is 100% drug free.

Excess DHT, one of the root causes of hair thinning, can shrink scalp follicles and cause hair to appear in places you’d rather not. Saw Palmetto, one of the most important ingredients in our men’s formulas, has been shown to reduce the conversion of testosterone to DHT to keep hair growing on your head—and nowhere else.

We recommend speaking to your healthcare provider if you have questions about Nutrafol supplements with other dietary supplements or over-the-counter and prescription medications.

When it comes to topical treatments, you’re welcome to continue with products that are currently working for you. As always, if you are on prescription medications, we recommend talking to your doctor before starting any new dietary supplement, including Nutrafol supplements.

While we can’t change your genetics, we can support your body and buffer the effects of dihydrotestosterone (DHT)—the primary hormone that triggers hair thinning in genetically predisposed individuals. Saw Palmetto, an ingredient in Nutrafol Hair Growth Nutraceutical, provides concentrated fatty acids that reduce the conversion of testosterone to DHT to help improve hair growth.

For best results, we recommend taking Nutrafol Hair Growth Nutraceutical for a minimum of 3 to 6 months and beyond. However, it’s important to remember that healthy hair growth takes time—and of course, consistency is key. Once you see results, the ingredients in Nutrafol Hair Growth Nutraceuticals need to be taken consistently to keep showing you those results and to continue targeting key root causes of hair thinning.

Nutrafol Hair Growth Nutraceuticals are designed to support hair health by addressing underlying root causes of hair thinning, such as stress, hormones, nutrition, metabolism, and aging. However, it is not designed to regrow hair on fully bald spots where hair follicles may no longer be active.
