SHEFFIELD: A new study suggests that a sugar found naturally in the human body can cure baldness. It is as effective as the drugs used to treat diabetes.
Scientists say this method has been successfully used to grow hair in mice.
In a study conducted by scientists from the University of Sheffield with their colleagues in Pakistan, they found that administration of small amounts of a natural sugar called 2-deoxy-D-ribose (2dDR) could regrow hair in mice. They came.
According to the team of researchers, this sugar plays a ‘fundamental’ role in many biological functions in animals and humans.
For the past eight years, scientists have been trying to figure out how this sugar can help wounds heal by forming new blood vessels.
During the research, the team noticed that the hair around the healing wounds grew faster than the wounds where the sugar was not applied.
