"I have been using Shen Min now for only 3 months & I have to say my hair is coming in much thicker and it looks so healthy!"
-Anne R.
Bangor, Maine Important new findings from a preliminary clinical trial of Shen Min™, a two-component herbal supplement designed to reduce hair loss and promote healthy hair, were announced today. Subjects who completed the clinical trial and took Shen Min demonstrated statistical improvement over placebo groups in hair thickness, perceived appearance, and hair loss improvement at both the three (3) and six (6) month intervals.
Specifically, more than nine-in-ten (92.3%) of the subjects that completed the Shen Min clinical trial reported hair loss improvement. Additional top-line findings of those subjects completing the clinical trial include:
Perceived Appearance: More than three-fourths (76.9%) of the subjects taking Shen Min reported some level of improvement in their perceived appearance compared to fourteen percent (14.3%) taking the placebo.
Thickness: More than three-in-four subjects (77.0%) taking Shen Min reported some level of improvement. Additionally, there were indications that actual hair growth was attained but the Company is awaiting a second trial to affirm those results.
Approximately 90% of the subjects taking Shen Min were "happy" or "extremely happy" with the product. Two-thirds of subjects taking Shen Min reported that they would continue to use the product while approximately thirty percent (31%) were uncertain. More than six-in-ten subjects taking Shen Min reported that they would recommend the product to others.
About the Clinical Trial: The prospective, randomized, double-blinded placebo controlled clinical trial was conducted by Marshall-Blum, LLC, for BioTech Corporation. The clinical trial, which surpassed Institutional Review Board design requirements, was limited to women between the ages 40-60. Twenty-six (26) and seven (7) subjects completed the trial on product and placebo, respectively.
