Excess use of heat or chemicals can be a cause of loss. Everyone knows you should minimize the abuse you do to your hair.
If you want longer, stronger hair, hair growth supplements are one giant step you can take along that road. As always, we will continue to monitor the situation and be prepared to change, if the science changes.Why You Should Be Taking a Hair Growth Vitamin The bottom line is our opinion the Magnesium Stearate claims are more junk science intended to stir up business for a few manufacturers and people who sell books feeding on other people's fears. This has nothing to do with the ingesting of stearic acid as part of your diet and even less to do with magnesium stearate. Isolated T-cells in a petri dish were exposed to several thousand times the amount of stearic acid you would have in your body. Secondly, the article they (incorrectly) point to doesn't have to do with stearic acid as a part of a diet (ingested) supplement but about a mixture of stearic acid with other things in a study to determine its potential effectiveness in suppressing the immune system of transplant patients. First of all, if that were true, that has nothing to do with with magnesium stearate. There is a claim that stearic acid suppresses the immune system. The idea that magnesium stearate may be harmful seems to come from another irrelevant claim. It's our opinion this the reason behind the claims that magnesium stearate is anything other than safe is that people are trying to capitalize on the unsuspecting consumers' fears. Of course, many of them would say that the manufacturers using these "harmful" ingredients will defend their use no matter what. We have seen this with parabens, sodium laurel sulfate, sodium chloride (literally table salt), etc.
They create a market for their products by taking advantage of consumers who do not have the time to research their claims for themselves. Some niche manufacturers who don't use a particular ingredient will demonize that ingredient with the intent of driving their market share up. So, if it's so safe, why all the articles claiming it's not safe? This is a pattern that repeats itself over and over again in the health and beauty industry.
Magnesium stearate is used in very small amounts in supplements- amounts that are not harmful. Several vitamins, even good old Vitamin D, are toxic (poisonous) when take in large doses. That is not reason enough to be concerned about an ingredient. But, many things that are helpful when taken or used in moderation are toxic when taken in megadoses.

Magnesium stearate is not to be taken in large amounts because, in large amounts, it causes liver toxicity and skin irritation. It's found naturally in poultry, fish dairy, grain, cocoa, etc. Just FYI though, stearic acid is naturally found in many foods (though it can be created using a chemical process) and is considered a fairly healthy saturated fat. While magnesium stearate is made from stearic acid, it's most definitely not stearic acid any more than water (H 2O) is hydrogen (an explosive gas). Many of the articles warning of the use of magnesium stearate mistakenly (or at least wrongly) equate it with stearic acid. But, one thing you should be aware of is that although magnesium stearate might sound kind of like stearic acid and the representation of it Mg(C 18H 35O 2) 2 is similar to that of stearic acid CH 3(CH 2) 16CO 2H that doesn't mean that chemically the two behave anything alike. Most of us don't remember much of our high school chemistry and really don't care to. Magnesium stearate has been considered safe and effective for years. If magnesium stearate weren't used, the ingredients put into your multivitamins would end up on the machine parts, not in the capsule or the pill itself. It basically acts as a lubricant to keep them from clumping. It's used in the manufacture of supplements because it's great at keeping the ingredients in the supplements from sticking to the machinery that makes them. Why are people using it if it's harmful?įirst of all what is magnesium stearate and why is it used? Magnesium stearate is the combination of a Magnesium ion (Mg) and stearic acid.But, a couple of years ago, some manufacturers/websites started raising "concerns" about the inclusion of this ingredient and suggesting you buy products without it. Magnesium stearate has been used, without incident, in supplements for years. It is not used in large amounts (it's usually listed in the "other ingredients" section). But, if you start checking your supplement bottles (multivitamins), you'll find that is it quite common. It's likely you've never heard of this ingredient. The latest ingredient to be brought to our attention as a potential "threat" is magnesium stearate.
