Also, does this promote hair "growth" or thickening of existing hair? Does it work for people with MPB or hair loss due to DHT, etc, etc?? Does anyone know?
The health benefits of tocotrienols and tocopherols have only recently been discovered in the last 10 or so years.

More recently, tocotrienols have reached a new measure of scientific recognition, with nearly 30% of peer-reviewed research articles on the vitamin published within 2009–2010. The first-ever scientific compilation of tocotrienol research, Tocotrienols: Vitamin E Beyond Tocopherols, was published in 2008 by CRC and AOCS Press, while a second edition was published in 2012.

There have been 2 human clinical trials showing that this formulation was able to increase hair re-growth by 42% on average, this was 2" area of the head measured and the hair number counted then after 8 months of use the same 2" area the number of hairs counted again and found to have increased by an average across the study group by 42%.

It promoted both hair growth and thickening, In 2009, The Department of Dermatology of Switzerland proposed free radicals as the primary cause of hair loss recommending antioxidant supplementation for the prevention and potential reversal of hair loss.

As free radical levels increase, they mutate the hair follicle, making it susceptible to damage from normal hormones like DHT. As the free radicals levels get even higher, they completely destroy the hair follicle. So if you can get the right antioxidants into the scalp and into the hair follicle, we can turn on hair growth by increasing the metabolism in the assimilation of fats and proteins within the scalp.
