Dr. Morton Walker, D.P.M.
Dr.
Morton Walker is a doctor of podiatric medicine, and has long been
recognized as the world's most outstanding medical journalist
specializing in orthomolecular nutrition, holistic medicine and
alternative methods of healing. He has published seventy-one books and
nearly 2,000 consumer magazine, clinical journal, and newspaper
articles. He has won 23 medical journalism awards and medals and has
received the 1992 Humanitarian Award from the American Cancer Control
Society, the 1981 Orthomolecular Award from the American Institute of
Preventive Medicine for outstanding achievement in Orthomolecular
education, and two prestigious Jesse Neal Editorial Achievement Awards
from the American Business Press.
In
October 1994, Dr. Morton Walker was invited by the University of Munich
to go to Germany to investigate studies done there by eight
universities, including the Universities of Darmstadt, Munich,
Frankfurt, Heidelberg, and Vienna. Nine physicians, professor at the
universities, who were oncologists, dermatologists, gynecologists and
general internists, participated in the production of a Thymus gland
extract called ThymuSkin®, a product they developed primarily for
cancer patients who were subjected to chemotherapy. These physicians
performed placebo controlled, double-blind studies on the effects of
this product on hair loss to cancer patients. When the product was
rubbed on the patient's scalp before he took a chemotherapeutic agent,
there was no hair fallout, - no hair loss at all. The German health
authority GMP has declared the ThymuSkin® product to be preventative
for hair fallout for chemotherapy patients. However, it was soon
discovered ThymuSkin® also re-grew hair. And so it was declared as a
treatment for the regrowth of hair for men with alopecia areata, or male
pattern baldness, and for females who have female pattern baldness. It
is effective for those people who still have live hair follicles.
Foreword
Hair
on the head greatly influences an individual's appearance, a phenomenon
of such importance that baldness ofter leads to severe psychological
and/or sociological disturbances. Yet, there's no single answer as to
why baldness occurs because it comprise several different diseases of
known pathogeneses. Various therapeutic approaches have therefore been
developed to counteract baldness, and until now the rate of success of
the majority of them has not been satisfactory.
In
this new, updated, and greatly expanded second edition of his original
book, How to Stop Baldness and Regrow Hair, Dr. Morton Walker provides
us with much information about using diet, phytochemicals, enzymes,
herbs, nutrients (including vitamins, minerals, and essential fatty
acids), plus many nutraceuticals for the restoration of a healthy head
of hair. He also gives details about getting to the root of your hair
problem by use of scalp stimulators, massage, plus the proper washing,
drying, and brushing techniques for head hair. Not forgotten or
discounted either are methods of hair replacement including flap
surgery, hair transplants, hairpieces, and the correct stylings to
camouflage thinning hair.
Yet,
there is even greater knowledge to be acquired on these pages about
another, more important alternative method for restoring hair growth.
It's calf thymus extract - imported to America from Mannheim, Germany.
This well-developed and promising therapeutic concept has emerged during
the past decade. It incorporates calf thymus extract as the viable agent
of treatment for hair loss by substituting for insufficient human thymus
hormone (thymosin). Located high in the chest cavity extending upwards
into the neck to the lower edge of the thyroid gland and downwards as
far as the fourth costal cartilage, one's thymus gland is a vital organ
of the human body. Most significantly, it acts as a regulator of each
person's immune system.
The
thymus affects one part of the maturation of T-derived lymphocytes.
These T-lymphocytic cells are one particular type of the two forms of
white blood cells. They encourage secretion of thymus peptides into the
blood to influence various cellular systems and are very important for
human survival. The thymus gland produces such T-cell. As and individual
ages, however, his or her thymus gland shrinks, and this condition
correlated with augmentation of autoimmune diseases. That homone from
the thymus - thymosin - is absolutely vital for effective immune system
functioing.
In
Europe, the administration of total thymus extract against autoimmune
diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosis
has a long tradition. Thymus is employed for the treatment of cancer and
infectious diseases, too. Effective thymus compounds in the form of low
molecular peptides now have been created for use against different types
of baldness in the form of a new topically-applied product.
Local
application of Thymu-Skin® lotion, gel, and shampoo are providing
outstanding results for the prevention fo baldness in cancer patients
who require chemotherapy. When massaged into the scalp right from the
beginning of cytotoxic therapy, Thymu-Skin prevents the cancer patient's
hair from falling out. Even more remarkable is the excellent hair
regrowth being experienced by patients with long-standing total baldness
( alopecia areata totalis). These results are spectacular.
To
explain what and now Thymu-Skin accomplishes its fine therapeutic
effects, we have the second edition of this exceedingly well-written and
easy-to-read book by that renown medical journalist Fr. Morton Walker.
He has been well-received in Germany, Austria, and other German-speaking
countries. For consumers outside of the medical field, Bald No More: How
to Stop Baldness and Regrow Hair discusses the most important hair
diseases and then demonstrates the existing results of the Thymu-Skin
treatment program.
While
Dr. Walker's writing technique is truly admirable, at the same time it's
astonishing for me to observe how professionally he achieves his task of
clearly and succinctly explaining the highly complex science of hair
follicle anatomy, hair growth, hair loss, and the hypotheses related to
these subjects. He has an excellent way of presenting data, including
hard statistical results, which normally aren't exciting to read.
Using
a sophisticated network of personal experiences, patient histories, and
successful treatments, Dr. Walker effectively teaches us about the
scalp, hair loss, and hair regrowth. This book is a superb adviser for
those suffering from almost any kind of hair loss. By broad distribution
of Dr. Walker's message, many millions of balding men and women
worldwide may become happy once again. I verify that this book tells the
truth about how to stop baldness and regrow hair, and I'm happy to have
furnished the foreword for the edition and now the second one as well.
Bald No More: How to Stop Baldness and Regrow Hair is the most succinct
but complete popular mass market trade book ever written for
comprehension by the intelligent and educated medical consumer.
