Nutrafol has unveiled Men 50+, a new nutraceutical designed to combat age-related hair thinning in men over 50. The launch marks the company’s first hair growth supplement tailored specifically to the unique biological changes that occur in this demographic, expanding its life-stage-focused portfolio.
Addressing Age-Related Hair Loss
“Hair health evolves with every life stage,” said Cindy Gustafson, CEO of Nutrafol. “Men in their 50s face biological shifts that impact hair quality, yet available solutions rarely reflect these changes. Nutrafol Men 50+ closes that gap, targeting age-related thinning while applying the holistic, life-stage approach that has already benefited women’s hair health.”
Research indicates that men over 50 experience a roughly 20% decline in testosterone, reduced collagen production, increased oxidative stress, accelerated cellular aging, and decreased nutrient absorption. Combined with hormonal influences and ongoing stress, these factors often contribute to hair thinning, signaling the need for a more tailored, “whole-body” solution.
The Science Behind Men 50+
Developed by physicians, Nutrafol Men 50+ is a vegan, drug-free oral supplement featuring the proprietary Synergen Complex Renewal. Key ingredients include:
- Saw palmetto: Supports reduction of testosterone conversion to DHT, a primary factor in male pattern hair loss.
- Moldavian dragonhead: Promotes natural collagen production, supporting scalp structure and follicle anchoring.
- Spermidine: A polyamine linked to cellular renewal, aiding in the improvement of thinning hair.
- Probiotics, antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals: Address nutrient deficiencies common in men over 50 and support scalp and follicle health under increased oxidative stress.
Clinical Results and Benefits
Nutrafol reports that in clinical studies, 84% of participants experienced thicker, fuller hair, while 90% noted a slowdown in hair thinning after nine months of use. Importantly, the supplement promotes hair growth without affecting sexual performance, a concern with some pharmacologic DHT-modulating therapies.
“Men over 50 require a distinct approach to hair thinning,” said Dr. Heather Woolery-Lloyd, Chief Medical Advisor at Nutrafol. “By addressing collagen decline, nutrient absorption, oxidative stress, and hormonal changes, Men 50+ supports the body’s evolving biology, helping maintain existing hair while promoting healthier, fuller growth.”
Nutrafol Men 50+ is available for purchase online, through e-commerce platforms, and via healthcare providers.
