DHT-Block Care – Support for hair maintenance... & more!

DHT-Block Care from EssentialSeries is a food supplement made with plant extracts, epigallocatechin-3-gallate, phytosterols, minerals, and vitamin B6.

Formulated with ingredients chosen for their specific role in supporting hair maintenance, DHT-Block Care combines natural compounds with recognized biological activity and key nutrients that work together to support processes related to hormonal regulation (vitamin B6), testosterone metabolism (zinc), and urinary comfort (Saw palmetto). Its composition is backed by scientific evidence¹ that strengthens its functionality and optimization as a complete formula for DHT blocking.

An expert formula, top quality, created to help you take care of your hormonal balance and act on DHT blocking!

Support in hormonal regulation: the foundation of DHT-Block Care

The activity of 5α-reductase and the conversion of testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT) are directly influenced by the body's hormonal environment. That’s why maintaining hormonal balance is one of the key physiological factors to regulate the formula’s activity. In DHT-Block Care, we tackle this function through nutrients selected for their properties and solid backing.

Zinc and vitamin B6: two backed allies

Zinc and vitamin B6 are essential micronutrients involved in many metabolic functions. Their roles in DHT-Block Care are especially important because:

In DHT-Block Care, we use highly bioavailable forms of these key compounds (zinc bisglycinate and pyridoxine hydrochloride) to ensure optimal bioavailability for their supportive function.

Thanks to this solid nutritional base, the formula offers a strong functional approach to controlling the hormonal environment, one of the key pillars in managing DHT.

Plant extracts with wellness benefits

DHT-Block Care combines plant extracts selected for their well-known use. These raw materials not only have important traditional use but have also been deeply studied for their functional role when used as food supplements.

Saw palmetto, pumpkin seed, and Pygeum africanum form the botanical core of the formula, and have been used in studies and reference formulas to support functions related to the formula’s goal.

• Saw palmetto (Serenoa repens): As a 4:1 extract with a guaranteed 45% fatty acid content, it’s recommended as a source of fatty acids to maintain reproductive function and support normal urinary function in men from 45 years old.
• Pumpkin seed (Cucurbita pepo): As a 20:1 extract standardized in adenosine and enterodiol, pumpkin seed helps maintain healthy prostate function, bladder function, and urinary flow.
• Pygeum africanum: With a standardized extract at 15% phytosterols that supports normal urinary function in men.

Phytosterols and EGCG: key nutrients for balance in the formula

Besides the formula’s core extracts, DHT-Block Care includes nutrients of growing interest. Their inclusion is based on solid scientific grounds and their broad application in different food supplement approaches as part of a formula aimed at controlling DHT.

Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) is the main polyphenol in green tea, known for its unique nutritional properties. We use it in DHT-Block Care as an ultra-purified version from a high-concentration Camellia sinensis leaf extract, selected for its natural quality.

Both compounds act as complementary elements to the formula’s central core.

Technology and quality: one step further in formulation

With guaranteed patents: Vegapure® and BioPerine®

Vegapure^® is a source of highly pure plant phytosterols. Its inclusion ensures a relevant dose of beta-sitosterol, the most important and key plant sterol for the overall functions of this composition.

BioPerine^® is a standardized extract of Piper nigrum, highly concentrated in piperine (98.5%). Its main role is to optimize the absorption of nutritional compounds, allowing perfect bioavailability of the key ingredients in DHT-Block Care.

Including these patents reflects the technical excellence in formulation we follow at HSN, where we use patents with purpose, not just for commercial exposure, and reaffirms our commitment to product development.
