This stuff is advertised in magazines and on the radio (Rush Limbaugh is a favorite pitchman for it). At any rate, this stuff was “developed by a NY physician” and “thousands of people” have experienced regrowth of hair with it, etc., etc., etc. Is this the same old scam? I called them, and they have a money back guarantee…has anybody here used the stuff? Does it work?

It seems to be a bit over priced and their ads are misleading.
