Organic pea-sprout extract

AnaGain™ Nu

Organic pea-sprout extract, studied at the follicle.

Supplied by Mibelle Biochemistry

AnaGain™ Nu is a water-soluble extract of organic pea sprouts (Pisum sativum), developed by Mibelle Biochemistry in Switzerland.

What has been characterised

In manufacturer and published research the extract has been studied for its effect on FGF7 and Noggin gene expression in the dermal papilla — signalling associated with the hair follicle’s growth phase. We describe this as a mechanism under study, not a consumer outcome.

Published research

One peer-reviewed clinical pilot has been published:

  • Grothe, Wandrey & Schuerch (2020)

    Short-communication pilot clinical study (n=21) of oral pea-sprout extract, reporting on hair parameters and FGF7/Noggin expression. A small, manufacturer-authored pilot.

A note on claimsAnaGain™ has no ingredient-specific authorised claim. KeratinCell’s hair message comes from biotin (an authorised claim), not from AnaGain — so here we stay with the ingredient and its research.
