Nitric Oxide and BALDING:

Nitric oxide plays several roles in hair growth and scalp health.  It helps maintain healthy hair follicles by promoting blood flow to the scalp, delivering essential nutrients and oxygen to the hair follicle cells.  It can help reduce inflammation in the scalp.  As a result, it may help prevent hair follicle miniaturization, which is a key factor in hair loss.
