Natural remedies appear to work based on the fact that many, many people that suffer from a condition called Telogen effluvium. This condition is where you have some form of assault to the hair. It may be dietary, it may be having been unwell and due to the hair growth cycle, the hair will fall some 3 months after the assault so that the person who is suffering from sudden hair loss will not associate their hair loss with the assault 3 months previously - they will just see the hair dropping and they will panic. They will buy a natural remedy. The truth of the matter is that with Telogen effluvium, hair will spontaneously regrow. They're taking the natural remedy tablets at the same time that the spontaneous regrowth is taking place and so feel that the therapy they've been using is working.
