Explaining
the photographs: In
the example above it shows the (1) a
normal catagen hair that has a green
center both in the bulb and the stem of the hair. Green means good
in the center part of the hair. In photo
2 you can see that the green stays in
the bulb. The green should move up into the shaft. This hair will
not grow properly until it is nourished. This is form of male pattern
baldness. This hair has a proper forming bulb
but the stem
is not growing out of the head
properly. This can cause the appearance of hair loss, thinning and weak
brittle hair..
Photograph 3 shows
what can happen as an effect of certain fad diets on the market.
This hair is hampered by lack of protein. Lack of nutrition destroys the
outline of the medulla, cortex and cuticle. This breaks down the
reproduction.
Over
the years we have noticed several things regarding diet and hair loss.
1) Fad diets can cause hair loss by putting stress on the body similar
to emotional stress which causes the hair cells to quit reproducing.
2) Diets or rapid changes in eating habits can cause hair loss even if
the diets are high in protein
3) Low protein or vegetarian diets can cause hair problems including
hair loss.
It
is important to note that once malnutrition is handled the body handles
the hair loss as well. Results vary but are typically good when caught
early enough.
We
have also noticed that there are certain things that you can do for your
body to reduce your susceptibility to hair loss regarding diet and
stress.
Understanding
how your diet affects your hair:
Low
protein diets simply starve your hair since your hair is made up of
proteins. The proteins are made up of amino acid chains many of which
contain the amino cystine. For various reasons the proteins and aminos
may not make it to your hair whether it be from lack of proteins or
cystine or from lack of circulation to the vessels that feed the hair
which is often seen in people with hormone related hair loss because the
dht hormone derivative destroys the blood vessels that feed the
hair.
Solving
protein malnutrition hair problems is not as difficult however people
should be aware that your hair is often the barometer of your body
meaning that your body may be deficient and this should be addressed.
Solving
hair problems associated with protein malnutrition and amino acid
malnutrition is done by adding proteins and aminos the the hair with
certain products and adding proteins and aminos to the to the body as
well.
Products
for the hair:
Protein
Amino conditioner and Vitamin shampoo. If
you treat your hair then we also suggest "Keeping the
Color" shampoo. It adds many of the aminos and proteins lost
during the harsh coloring and perming process. It also adds moisture. Products
can be found here!
If
your body is not responding to stress well it might be because it is
depleted in the vitamins and minerals that it needs to handle stressful
situations. Giving your body b-vitamins and proper aminos as well as
proteins can allow it to deal with stress in a much healthier way.
We would suggest adding essential fatty acids to your diet. One of the
products that we recommend for this is EMU OIL gelcaps. For some
reason it tends to work better than fish oils and primrose oil at
helping with hair related stress problems. We also suggest that you look
into the normal daily requirements of B vitamins and the amino
acids.
We
have recommended the Hair Energizer vitamin for some time now. It
has everything that hair needs in an oral vitamin.

allows you to treat the cause with products that have worked in the
past.
