04 Sep 2024 --- A study in Cosmetics looks at resveratrol-rich peanut callus extract to prevent hair loss and promote growth. The bioactive compound is presented as having the potential to be used as an alternative treatment to chemicals in the development of hair care products. The paper notes, “Resveratrol has been found to stimulate the growth of human dermal papilla cells and protect them from oxidative damage. The topical application of resveratrol effectively enhanced hair growth and stimulated the transition of the hair cycle from the resting phase into the active growth phase (anagen phase).”
