What is Bayberry? |
|
How to Make Bayberry Extract? (by itself) |
| Crush to powder 100g of bayberry extract with 50% ethanol 500ml (ie: 250 ml water + 250 ml ethanol) for 24 hours at room temperature. The final solution is muddy so you have to filter through thin cloth when done. The final color of the solution should be reddish brown. You can use Japanese bayberry (Yamamomo) Myrica Rubra, but Chinese bayberry has the same efficiency. Waseda recommends getting bayberry bark root from Chinese herbal shops. Waseda believed that the main constituent in Bayberry for hair loss is Myricanol and Dr. Matsuda told Waseda that either Myrica Rubra or Myrica Cerifera should contain sufficient Myricanol. |

How to Make Morehairin with
Bayberry |
| To make an even more potent Morehairin, add Bayberry
extract. Bayberry is a topical DHT inhibitor that has been proven to be
80% effective. The amount to add to the Morehairin is 200 ml Bayberry
extract to compound a solution good for 100 days. Waseda recommends: 1) Compound 200 ml of Bayberry extract by steeping Bayberry powder in
50% concentrated ethanol solution for 24-48 hours. The amount of
Bayberry powder to use can be anywhere from 40 g – 80 g. Remember to
filter the Bayberry residues when the solution is ready. 2) Add 10-15g of GSE to the Bayberry extract. 3) Make boiled concoction of licorice, senburi (optional) and perilla
leaf, follow step 1 of the instructions for basic Morehairin. See
Morehairin summary. The only difference is that this boiled concoction
should be just 100 ml. Let the boiled mixture cool. 5) Add the Bayberry solution formulated in step 1 above to the boiled
concoction. 4) Add 20 ml of red wine. This will give you the same 420 ml formula as the Morehairin
instruction. |

How to Make Topical Minoxidil or Xandrox with Bayberry? |
|
Do not add Bayberry powder directly into topical minoxidil (Rogaine or Xandrox). This will cause excessive precipitation in the solution. Instead, prepare Bayberry separately; extract 20g powder in 60 ml (50% ethanol) solution for 24-48 hours. Filter through thin cloth. Then add to your 60ml bottle of Rogaine or Xandrox. |

Shanghai Sahanji – Chinese Bayberry (Myrica Rubra) in powder form (recommended by Waseda): http://www2.odn.ne.jp/~shanghai/order1.html Bayberry Root Bark (recommended by Waseda): Bayberry (Myrica Rubra db) dried berries from China: Bayberry Bark Root Capsules (950 mg) – Waseda said this is a good
alternative to the Oriental Bayberry – Myrica Rubra. |

Finer Details |
|
1) It may not be a good idea to add Bayberry to
Souhakuhi. Waseda suggests making the two separately. However, you can
add Bayberry to Morehairin if you want. Ancientway already sells a
premixed Morehairin with Bayberry. If you are going to add Bayberry to
Morehairin yourself, be careful about 100mg-150mg per day principle of
GSE. For example, your Morehairin is 420ml for 100 days use and if you
add 200ml of bayberry extract to it, then your one day application
volume must be 6ml but not 4ml. Waseda suggested a simpler method of
adding Bayberry to Morehairin without increasing the total volume to
more than 420ml. See How to Make Morehairin with Bayberry above. Alternatively, you can also make Morehairin and
Bayberry separately and then mix the two in the ratio 7:3 – 7 parts
Morehairin and 3 parts Bayberry. 2) Extract vs Powder vs Whole Roots (a) Herbs you should not use extract product but may use powder as well as whole roots: Mulberry(Sang Bai Pi), Bayberry(Yang Mei)------These can be used as home made ethanol extract only. Mulberry extract as in 70% ethanol watersolution for 7 days, Bayberry extract as in 50% ethanol water solution for 24-48hours. (b) Herbs you may use all forms: (c) Herb which is preferable to extract whole dried plant (including
twigs, roots, flowers) in 100% ethanol for long time(for example one
month) - Senburi. 3) Types of Bayberry – Myrica Rubra vs Myrica Cerifera: The study the regimen is based on apparently used the species "rubra." I have looked in all of my sources and books, and find no reference to Myrica rubra. However, I don't feel that is a large concern. As Waseda wrote: From: waseda Date: 02 Apr 2001 Comments I asked the point to the original author. In general, if the family is same, chemical properties have the similar propensity. Perhaps, inhibition rate of 5 AR may be different. The best way to secure the experimental specs might to get it from Chinese herbal shop as 'Yang Mei' or 'Yang Mei Pi'. According to the author, Chinese bayberry and Japanese bayberry showed the exactly same data. How about consult with ancientway.com?? It is *very* common in Chinese medicine to use several species in one genus which have identical or similar effects. For example, Dandelion (Pu Gong Ying) is listed in my herbal as either Taraxacum mongolicum, Taraxacum officinale, or Taraxacum sinicum. When you go to a Chinese herb shop, an herb called Pu Gong Ying could be any one of these. I have a library of herb books, Chinese and Western, and many importers/suppliers. None of them mentions Myrica rubra. As with Senburi, this may be a rare Japanese variety--if the Senburi companies in Japan ever reply to my numerous communications attempts, I'll be sure to ask them about the Myrica as well as the Senburi. Until then, my professional opinion is that Myrica cerifera, the common Bayberry, will have the same chemistry and thus effects as the Myrica rubra which probably only grows in Japan. I'll keep my eye out for Myrica rubra, but until then I encourage you to accept the cerifera as having the same function.>>> |

Research and Clinical Studies |
1) Bayberry
Study by Dr. Matsuda et al.
From: waseda CommentsAnti-androgenic Activity of Miricae Cortex---Isolation of Active Constituents from Bark of Myrica rubra (Biol. Pham. Bull. 24(3), March 2001) by Hideaki Matsuda et. al. consists of roghly three parts. First, they carries out screening of 20 herbs on inhibition rate of testosterone 5 alpha reductase activity, though they don't seperate type one and type two. Top five of inhibition rate of activity in vitro by 50% ethanol extracts are Myrica rubra Sieb. et Zucc (so called bayberry ) : 80.7% Rosa rugosa Thunb. var. plena Regel (so called Ramanas rose, naturalized in several places in Britain) : 79.0% Mucuna birdwoodiana Tutcher : 58.4% Polygonum bistorta L. (so called BISTORT, SNAKEWEED, EASTER LEDGES) : 58.2% Polygonum multiforum Thunb. (so called He Shou Wu, Fo-Ti) : 57.4% Next, they pay attention to the top two plants and study the tesosterone-stimulated growth suppression of Hamster Flank Organs in terms of pigment macule areas(mm2). Their comparison standard is oxendolone. Testosterone + 50% ethanol (control) left(untreatd) 7.2 right(treated) 19.4 inhibition rate 0% Testosterone + bayberry extract 0.5mg 7.1 11.8 39% Testosterone + Rosa rugosa 0.5mg 6.1 10.1 48% Testosterone + oxendolone 0.33micor mol 4.8 12.8 34% In short, bayberry extract inhibits the growth of right flank organ stimulated by testosterone by 39% locally, while oxendolone inhibits it by 34% and partially syemicaly(left organ is also suppressed). Though Rosa rugosa inhibits the growth by as large as 48%, it works a bit systemically( see the figure 6.1 < 7.2). Third, they study the recovery scores of topical applications of stuffs from testosterone deppressed hair of mouse in shaved area. Score 1: less than 20% growth of hair, 20%<=score 2<40%, 40%<=score 3<60%, 60%<score 4<80%, 80%<= score 5<100%. After 25 days of applications, control : 3.5 2% oxendolone : 3.0 bayberry extract : 2.5 rosa rugosa : 2.0 testosterone treated : 1.2 graphically read. This means mouse's hairs applied with bayberry extract will regrow 2.5/3.5=71% in score compared to no androgenic hairs and grow about twice(2.5/1.2) in score of testosterone treated hairs. ************ We can conclude that bayberry extract will be a potent topical (local) 5 alpha reductase inhibitor. According to Dr. Matsuda, this study was done under the cooperation with a pharmaceutical company, but this stuff has color and spots cloths, and they have not manufactured it product. "Please apply it freely among hair loss people all over the world." This is his message. -- waseda 2) How Bayberry + GSS Work? |
