Hey all, first time poster but been lurking around here for a while and am definitely not new to hair loss or the research on it. Anyways, I take 300 mg of Turmeric Extract twice a day both when I wake up and before I go to bed, as I read all the stuff on here about all the TGF beta inhibition benefits of it. However, I just came across this article (http://www.intelihealth.com/IH/ihtIH/WSIHW000/8513/31402/348510.html?d=dmtContent) and was rather alarmed to find this statement:

In animal studies, turmeric has caused hair loss, changes in blood pressure and liver damage.

Any thoughts on this?

What was the dosage of the turmeric they gave the animals? Do a dose/weight comparison and it's probably just reached the toxic level of dosage. Heck for all you know 300mg might not even be enough to reach the therapeutic dosing level.
