Drive to a "factory-farm" and see what the cows, pigs, and chickens are fed with. Usually, it's a mixture of antibiotics, genetically modified corn, dirt, bacteria, and their own feces.

I don't doubt they feed them garbage. But that doesn't necessarily mean that it'll affect the milk (which is pasteurized anyways) and me when I eat the whey. I'll look into it.

Also look into pasteurization then as well.

Was taking random pics of my hair. I've been leaving minoxidil in overnight. The effect... I dont have to take a shower in the morning to counteract my greasy scalp. The alcohol dries it out, as well as my hair which imo looks much better this way. My hair actually looks poofier/thicker and like it has some life this way. Any products you'd recommend that could help get this same effect? Ignore the blacked out dishes haha

Hair looks good! You should keep the stubble , I think i've seen you cleanly shaved , and the little facial hair defenitly is better. Ive been on fin for 6 years and it totally saved me. I was half bald and it all grew back. I'm starting to notice the crown ever so slightly thinning again so I might hop on the minox in the next year. I've been waiting so I have an ace up my sleeve when the fin results started to drop off.

I'm concerned about hearing that it fucks up the collagen in your face, and prematurely ages you. I think its from when you put it on at night, then your head is rolling around in your pillow it spreads to your face that way. I wonder if wearing a shower cap at night after you put it on would stop the spread to your face. Or maybe just applying it in the morning. But if you apply it in the morning, if you wear a hat, you could spread it to your face/forehead that way. I dunno, just thinking out loud here.

@terry_crews87 - I haven't seen regrowth from fin. How long did it take you to notice results with it? I have a feeling the minoxidil collagen shit either isn't of concern, or isn't of concern for most people. People act like its the end of the world if you take fin haha, so take it with a grain of salt.Alcohol can dry your skin out but I put a solid moisturizer on before going to bed anyways.

[terry_crews87]

I could notice it starting to regrow after about 5 months or so, and it peaked around 1.5-2 years after, and has been maintained at that for the last 4 years. Its still working and i might not even start using minox for another couple years yet.

Can't believe I actually look somewhat decent in that picture... must have had the perfect angle and lighting because the other ones look nothing like that.

@terry_crews87 As for fin, I'm about 15 months on it. No regrowth but it has probably helped slow or help maintain. That's awesome it gave you regrowth, you're very lucky haha. Doesn't sound like there's a reason to add minoxidil for you at this time.
