Battling Hair Loss With Aloe Vera

Fighting hair loss can be a costly battle and an all-out war. If ever you find yourself fighting for your crowning glory, you better be armed with information about the enemy. Hair loss is oftentimes a genetic condition, especially for men (androgenetic alopecia). Or if you have a change in diet, or you are not getting enough vitamins and minerals, then you need to switch to a healthier lifestyle and start munching on fruits, vegetables and raw nuts. Hair loss can also be brought about by medication (especially if you are undergoing chemotherapy), if you stop taking birth control pills, or if you are taking some kind of antibiotic.

At times it can be stress-induced, and it is a matter of mastering yourself and handling stress better. Hair loss can also happen to women who have just given birth, in which case you need to give time for your hormones to stabilize, and again taking in vitamins and minerals will help. Moreover, when you have damaged or dry hair, its tendency is to produce static which leads to flyaway hair and brittleness, causing hair to fall out faster when you try to brush or detangle it.

A good weapon to fight hair loss no matter what its cause is aloe vera. Aloe vera is a medicinal plant used by Native Americans, Indians, and Asians to care for their skin and hair. The aloe leaves are excellent detoxifying agents, which cleans your hair and encourages it to grow healthier. Try massaging aloe vera gel on your scalp and hair every night. It will heal your scalp, cleanse its pores and balance its pH level. You can also try mixing aloe vera gel with wheat germ oil and coconut milk and use the concoction as a daily shampoo.

Fighting the hair loss war need not be costly; treat your hair with aloe vera, and see the difference.

What You Need to Know to Stop Hair Loss Caused by Stress

Hair loss is of concern to most people at one point in their lives. When the time comes they want to know how to stop hair loss. Stopping it can become an easy solution when you first notice that you are losing hair. If you ignore this condition hoping it will go away, you are making a big mistake.

Hair loss is a reflection of your general health. It is a major warning that you have poor health. The poor health condition that you might have can be complex and to reverse it will require some work, since this condition has taken a while on your part to create. The other thing that complicates your poor health condition is that there might be a psychological or stress problem that needs correction.

The first thing you need to look at is if you have a lot stress going on. This stress can come from a recent or past change is your personal relationships. These relationships can be at home, with relatives or at work. You could be working late hours working on difficult problems that create a lot of pressure on you. It could be a divorce you going through or a financial crisis. These problems can be worked out but it takes patience and sometimes courage.

Psychological problems are more difficult to work through. These types of problems create a complete imbalance in your body's chemistry and over time create hair loss. Stopping it from this condition requires therapeutic help and a good nutritional and diet program.

Any stress or psychological problems requires a base line of good nutrition and diet, if you want to stop their effects on hair loss. These problems create a massive depletion of vitamins and minerals that are needed for hair health. Some times it is difficult to get into the habit of eating food that you need to stop it. Changing habits that have been instilled in you since birth are not easy to change. You have patterned you eating habits based on your psychological issues and the stress you have in your life.

If you are experiencing stress, than you need to start changing your diet to replace the depleted nutrients caused by stress. The first vitamin you need to supplement with is the B-vitamins. These vitamins are always used up when you are stressed and they are critical in providing you with good hair. Then, you need to supplement with anti-oxidants. Stress and psychological problems create a lot of free radicals in your body. These free radicals lead to poor blood circulation throughout your body and including your scalp.

Most of us have stress and psychological issue we need to take care of. Start looking at how you can reduce these issues and start supplementing with B-vitamins and anti-oxidants so you can prevent or stop hair loss. You can learn what foods contain the B's and anti-oxidants, but you need therapeutic levels of the B's and anti-oxidants and you can not get these levels from food. You need to get them from supplements.

Gastric Bypass Causes Hair Loss: Can It Be Avoided?

Surprisingly, hair loss is one of the reasons female pre-operative patients sit on the fence before deciding to have gastric bypass surgery. Obese people, particularly obese women, often have lush gorgeous hair. Of course they do - it's well fed and nourished! How many of us have been described as the woman with "beautiful hair and a pretty face"? What person in their right mind would give up one of their beautiful features?

Hair loss usually occurs in the fourth of fifth month following weight loss surgery. During the phase of rapid weight loss, caloric intake is marginal. This puts the body in a state of panic called starvation. Think about the pictures of prisoners of war. Most victims of this atrocity are without hair because they are literally starving to death. A healthy body normally sheds ten percent of hair follicles at any given time. When a body is starving roughly thirty to forty percent of hair follicles are sacrificed as the body channels nutrition to more vital areas. During this phase hair loss is dramatic, often patients find clumps of hair on the shower floor. Remaining hair becomes drab and lifeless.

I knew hair loss was a potential result of weight loss surgery, but because I'm a "cup-half-full" person, I didn't believe that hair loss would happen to me! That just happens to other people, I told myself! Imagine my surprise when my blonde locks were littering the bathroom floor like hair saloon. I shed some tears over dass

Hair loss is a temporary effect of gastric bypass surgery to stabilize and resolve, if the diet and weight. When my hair began to fall, took my husband who is a proponent of vitamin supplements for life a vitamin specifically formulated for building strong healthy hair. The vitamin I take for healthy hair and nails is Silica Complex by Puritan Prideƒ. It contains calcium, magnesium, zinc, boron, betaine and horsetail extract. Consumptionthis supplement almost immediately retarded my hair loss and renewed my dull lifeless hair. I will continue taking this supplement throughout my life. Three years after surgery my hair is long, full and lustrous - one would never know I had suffered significant hair loss. In hindsight, I would certainly begin taking this supplement prior to my surgery. In the very least I would begin taking it soon after surgery before the signs of hair loss were apparent.

3 New Ways to Stop Your Hairloss

In this article I want to show you 3 new ways that you can use to easily stop your hairloss. Whilst some of the information herein may seem 'different' to common advice about stopping hairloss, it is backed up by the latest scientific research. And whilst a lot of research is funded by the pharmaceutical industry to help it gain greater profits, the research that led to this information was pure science.

DHT is the exact hormone that causes hairloss. Reducing DHT will stop your hairloss, but with all the information about DHT pointing to testosterone as the cause, it's little wonder that people go on suffering from excess DHT, and continued hairloss. In fact DHT is not caused by testosterone. It's caused by excess estrogen, and a little something called Estrogen Dominance.

Now there are 3 ways to stop Estrogen Dominance and DHT.

1. Pollution in the environment is a major cause of estrogen production in the body. Unless you migrate out of the city and into the green countryside, then you need to improve you body's ability to neutralize the pollution before it causes the production of estrogen.

To do this you need to detox your liver. There are many liver cleanser products available, and I advise you to avail yourself of these and do a liver cleanse on a regualr basis.

2. Food these days has a lot of chemicals that cause the production of estrogen. Again a liver detox will help to neutralize these, but a much better way is to avoid chemicals in food by eating organic. This is something you can do starting today at little extra cost to your current food budget, and beleive me when I say it really is worth the extra pennies.

3. DHT resides in the scalp and needs to be removed asap. Unless this is done the DHT will continue to cause hairloss, even if you are no longer producing any new DHT by following steps 1 and 2.

There are literally hundreds of overpriced DHT removers on the market, costing $50 or more per month, and whilst these do the job, there are other cheaper options, so shop around.

Natural Hair Loss Remedies

Fact: There is no sure-fire way to prevent all hair loss. However, some methods that have been used work on some people. Here are some suggestions for natural remedies to hair loss. Massage Massaging the scalp in general for a couple of minutes a day can stimulate blood flow to the hair follicles and in mild cases stimulate some hair growth in minor cases of temporary hair loss. There are several electric massagers on the market that have an attachment for scalp massaging as well. An oriental method called Qi Gong (pronounced Chi Kung) has been used to increase circulation to the scalp and face also. Aromatherapy A blend of six drops each of lavender and bay essential oils in a base of four ounces of either almond, soybean or sesame oil massaged into the scalp and allowed to sit for 20 minutes has been used by aroma therapists to stimulate the scalp. Saw Palmetto Extract There is a definite connection between the prostate and hair loss for men. Saw Palmetto has been found to work in fighting benign prostatic disease by lowering levels of DHT, which is a known cause of androgenetic alopecia. Saw Palmetto extract is an effective anti-androgen and shows promise as an effective treatment for hair loss prevention. More information on Saw Palmetto for Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Women on oral contraceptives or hormone therapy should not take Saw Palmetto. Nettle Root Extract Nettles are rich in vitamins A and C, several key minerals and lipids that can be beneficial to the hair. Nettle Root Extract has been used successfully in Europe as an inhibitor of 5-alpha reductase in treating BPH. Rosemary and Sage Rosemary and sage are two herbs that have shown benefit traditionally when used externally. Boil together in water rosemary, sage, peach leaf, nettle and burdock. Then strain the loose herbs from the liquid and use the liquid to wash the hair daily. Jojoba Oil If you are predisposed to seborrhea, eczema, psoriasis, or dandruff, you could consider using jojoba oil. Mexicans and southwestern Native American nations have used jojoba oil traditionally for centuries to promote hair growth and the control of dandruff. Jojoba oil is great for hypoallergenic skin because it is a great moisturizer and mimics the scalp's own sebum. Aloe Vera Aloe Vera has been used by Native Americans, Indians and many in the Caribbean to promote healthy hair and prevent hair loss. Aloe's can help the scalp by healing it and balancing the pH level of the scalp while cleansing the pores. A common preparation of Aloe Vera gel with a small amount of wheat germ oil and coconut milk is used as a shampoo and has traditionally shown great benefit. Henna Henna is a traditional Indian herb that acts as a natural conditioner and is excellent for the maintenance of healthy hair. It can help heal the hair shaft by repairing and sealing the cuticle, protecting hair against breakage and loss of shine. Polysorbate-80 Polysorbate-80 is an FDA approved surfactant that is also approved as a food additive. Although not proven, Polysorbate-80 is said to remove deposits of DHT and cholesterol from the scalp. Polysorbate-80 is being recommended by some naturopathic practitioners as an application for the scalp approximately 15 minutes prior to shampooing. Cleansing and Detoxification Cleansing should be a major part of your regimen to maintain and grow hair. Many scalp related diseases are directly the result of toxemia, while toxins in the body adversely affecting the body's systems indirectly affect other conditions. Cleansing can be performed through oral means regularly and occasionally by enema or colonic irrigation. More remedies for detoxification Psyllium husk Fiber is vital to cleansing, and most North American diets are deficient in natural fiber. Psyllium husk is a bulking laxative agent that can be used to safely move waste through the colon. Psyllium is a very good substance as it gently scrubs the walls of the colon to remove waste that is stuck to the walls.

Exercise Finally, although exercise does absolutely nothing directly to grow hair, most holistic practitioners recommend it. Exercising can improve blood flow, the delivery of oxygen to the cells of the body, and help the digestion of foods, all things that aid the health of hair follicles. Disclaimer: The advice here is not presented from a medical practitioner. Any and all dietary and medical planning should be made under the guidance of your own medical and health practitioners. This information does not replace medical advice from a professional physician.

The Hairloss Cure At Last

People have been trying to solve their hairloss problem for thousands of years, and for many young and middle aged adults it is the bane of their existence. Everyday looking at the mirror and wishing to god that they had more or thicker hair on their head. Well hair isn't just going to stop falling out unless you do something about it. But what can be done?

Well, there are some basics you can do right now to stop the hairloss! Firstly, you need to get your basic nutrition in. This is essential, as nutritional deficiencies have been scientifically proven to cause hairloss, and if the deficiency is severe, total hairloss can occur in weeks.

To solve this problem is simple. Firstly, eat more nutritious food like vegetables and whole foods. Cut back on junk foods and nutritionally depleted foods like ready meals. Next, take a quality supplement like barley grass everyday. This give you a nutritional boost that is far superior than taking a supermarket brand multivitamin pill, which your body essentially rejects, and you end up flushing down the toilet...

The next stage is to solve your hormonal problem. DHT is well known to cause hairloss, and it is excess estrogens that cause the production of DHT. As one gets older their estrogen levels rise, which is why hairloss occurs more frequently at an older age. Also did you know that males in their fifties have more estrogen in their bodies than females of the same age? Amazing but true!

The hormonal problem isn't one that can be solved overnight, but it is doable, simple reduce your estrogen 'intake', which you get from your environment and food.

The last stage of reducing and eliminating hairloss is to attend to the scalp. Here there will be a huge amount of DHT. You need an effective topical to clean this away. On the scalp will be dormant hair follicles waiting to be reactivated once the DHT levels are very low. Reactivate these and you will notice your hairloss becomes much reduced, and you can actually experience regrowth and a much thicker head of hair.

The Problems With Diabetes And Hair Loss

The connection between diabetes and hair loss was established long ago.

Diabetes is a hormone related disorder that often leads to hair loss or thinning of the hair.

Frequent loss of hair is often considered one of the early symptoms of diabetes, which requires prompt treatment in order to avoid further complications. The growth of hair is affected by diabetes, which gradually leads to thinning of hair.

Stress is directly related to diabetes and hair loss, as the disease causes excessive anxiety, which in turn becomes the prime cause of hair loss.

Diabetes Leads To Hair Loss:

Diabetes occurs when it becomes difficult for the body to metabolize carbohydrates properly. Diabetics are highly sensitive to skin ailments, as their blood circulation and blood sugar levels are impaired.

Bruises and small wounds often take a relatively long time to heal; therefore, the recovery rate is comparatively slower and obstructs the re-growth of hair.

This causes visible hair reduction, as diabetics cannot maintain the normal cycle of re-growth process. Bacterial and fungal infections on the scalp because of diabetes could also result in hair loss, thereby making diabetes and hair loss inter-related.

Normally, a healthy person would lose around fifty to hundred strands of hair every day. Therefore, if hair loss increases rapidly, you could require medical assistance, since untreated diabetes can escalate hair loss further.

The process:

Diabetes often leads to diffused hair growth that could be a result of medical stress or side effects of certain prescribed medicines to diabetics. It usually depends on the individual's body, as each person responds differently to specific medications. The stress caused by chronic diabetes reduces the growth of hair.

After a period of seven to eight months, hair follicles undergo a resting period and are gradually replaced with the growth of new hair. The replaced strands push the old hair to the surface of the scalp, and the hair falls out, this is known as telogen effluvium.

An autoimmune problem:

The other cause of hair loss due to diabetes is an autoimmune problem, which leads to one or more small bald patches developing on the scalp. This ailment is called alopecia areata.

Other additional autoimmune problems like a dysfunctional thyroid gland, the skin rash vitiligo, pernicious anemia, or Type 1 diabetes, often accompanies it.

Generally, Type 2 diabetes occurs when a hormonal imbalance causes polycystic ovary syndrome. Both the conditions are related to insulin resistance, which refers to the reduced ability of cells in the body to react to insulin.

Early detection and monitoring:

Diabetes often remains undetected because the symptoms at the early stage are not considered significant.

This is a major problem because early detection could slow down its harmful effects. Some of the symptoms of diabetes could be blurred vision, frequent urination, acute hunger, increased thirst, unusual weight loss, fatigue and unnecessary irritation.

Early detection of any of these symptoms, and early treatment could help in early recovery from both diabetes as well as excessive hair loss.

Careful monitoring of blood sugar levels provides relevant information that helps maintain control, which would consequently delay the development of various long-term complications.

Some of these long-term complications of diabetes could be the damage of blood vessels and nerves, loss of functioning of the kidneys, loss of sensation, heart disease and strokes.

Hair loss normally begins at the onset of diabetes and gradually becomes worse after the disease takes charge of the body.

It is very important to get the hair loss symptom diagnosed, to know the root cause of hair fall.

You need to seek a qualified doctor's advice, so that you can avoid further problems, and to desist from using hair lotions and conditioners, which will not help to solve the problem.
