Balayam, the revoloutionary cure for baldness and hairloss?
« on: February 22, 2010, 06:01:08 AM »
Hey guys, I encounter this video and website some time ago, but never thought to post it here to see your input

I'll just give you the website link and the youtube video, they pretty much speak for themselves

His website
http://www.balayam.com/

the youtube video


This video has had substantial comment discussion regarding this method of yoga regrowing your hair and stopping hair loss completely, someone claims that the thinning of their crown has completely filled in.


What do you guys think? :)

Me personally? I'm naturally extremely skeptical, but who knows nowadays. I imagine with the money the industry dealing with hairloss and treating baldness makes, that this is not that effective and this guy would have made an instructional dvd or something like that and become the richest man alive.

Only time will tell.

So whats your input?


UPDATE: Before insulting me, please refrain from doing so, I never said I condoned this, I merely thought it was interesting. Try to keep the discussion somewhat civil.

Well this really gets me rather irritated. :x!  The website starts off bad, claiming it has a "cure" then really goes off the deep end with, "Baldness is a diseases (sic) which bothered Yoga gurus in ancient times also and they found treatment for this omnipresent diseases in a very simple exercise which I call “BALAYAM”.  Getting beyond the turgid grammar of the article, the concept of disease is totally off base.  It is a genetic trait, not a disease.  It doesn't require any "cure" and no effective permanent means of altering the trait has been found. 

I believe this is just another scheme to separate people from their money.  Sly is the only natural way to deal with mpb, unless you prefer to sport some version of the Bozo ring, with or without the "combover."

Baldness is not a disease, it is a blessing bestowed on the deserving.

I agree with Saintc... the word cure implies a disease or damaging condition. MPB is neither...... it just is what it is. How one deals with it is the real issue......
