Why
You Lose Your Hair
(and what you can do about it)
Hair
is a living protein, and as with any living part of our bodies
we must be sure to maintain proper health to optimize our
chances of maintaining a healthy head of hair. Proper nutrition
is vital to maintaining healthy hair, since the hair is a
living and growing part of the body’s system. Viewing it
in this manner can help us to treat our bodies different
and raise expectations through proper care. A healthy balanced
diet, occasionally with the help of vitamin and mineral supplements
and exercise are all key components to a healthy regimen
of maintaining healthy hair.
Male
Pattern Baldness (MPB) or androgenetic alopecia is the
condition that over 95% of persons that suffer hair loss
have, and it is caused by a rise in DHT, a direct component
of testosterone. The scientific developments of
the past two decades have brought hope and promise to many
who suffer with this type of hair loss. Treatments like
Rogaine®, Rogaine® for Women, Propecia, and improved
surgical treatments have brought relief to many who would
have previously had to settle for gradual hair loss, wigs,
or hairpieces. The discovery of the role of DHT in preventing
hair loss has even opened the doors to possible herbal
solutions to hair loss prevention, such as saw palmetto,
nettles, rosemary and horsetail. Even more promising is
the fact that the hair loss commonly known as androgenetic
alopecia is found to occur mainly in Western civilization
or those who have adopted the ways of Western civilization,
meaning that there may be dietary practices that contribute
to hair loss and therefore giving hope to the possibility
that diet could control not only temporary hair loss, but
androgenetic alopecia as well.
Doctors
and scientists are studying DHT production in the body to
understand it more thoroughly. There is an obvious link to
hair loss and prostatic health and this only increases the
pace of hair loss discoveries. Most treatments for prostatic
diseases such as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) also
have the pleasant side affect of growing hair on the heads
of those taking it. With the pace of research and discoveries
today, there is a great deal of optimism in the field of
hair loss prevention. Hair is an important part of our dress
and appearance, therefore a large part of our self-esteem.
It is likely that there are answers for your situation presently
or coming in the near future.
Remember,
the restoration of hair growth is not an overnight process. The
process takes time regardless of the method chosen. Be
patient and follow as much of the advice given by professionals
as possible. Keep in mind that the body is a system, and
it is the abuse of this system by food intake and environmental
causes that lead to most common hair loss. Through returning
the body back to its natural state, hair growth can be
restored. Good health to you!
