Don't Let Hair Loss Get The Best Of You

By Mickey Zealing


Hair loss can come about for a number of reasons. Whatever the reason, it almost universally causes a great deal of distress. Here are some effective hints on how you can address the situation.

An old wives' tale suggests that you should eat a handful of sesame seeds every morning. This is because it contains a ton of calcium and of magnesium which are essential in keeping your hair healthy, and as such, essential to keeping your hair on your head rather than on the floor.

Fluctuating hormonal levels have also been linked to thinning hair. Whether they are fluctuating due to a birth control pill, your time of the month, or menopause, changing hormonal levels have been shown to play a role in the loss of hair. If this is the case, it's important not freaking out because this bleeding is typically temporary.

You may want to increase your Biotin intake if you want to both treat and prevent the loss of hair. This vitamin helps to promote more Keratin, the natural vitamin found in your hair. This vitamin helps to keep hair healthy and prevent it from falling out. Biotin is found in rice, milk, liver, and barley.

Zinc is a wonderful mineral to consume, as it will help you to kill internal bacteria. This is very important, as you will want to eliminate the factors that contribute to your hair loss. Take a zinc supplement or eat foods that have a high level of zinc for optimal results.

To encourage hair growth try this treatment. Apply olive oil to your scalp before bedtime. Wrap a soft towel around your head or wear a cotton hair cap for the night. Get a some sleep and wash the olive oil off the next morning. This will gently exfoliate your skin and get rid of accumulated oil, kill germs and stimulate new hair growth.

Drink at least eight glasses of water as the day wears on if you desire to improve the texture of your hair. Water helps to reduce the free radicals internally, so that you can have a strong head of hair for many years. Consume water as your primary liquid during the day.

By making use of advice like that presented above, you may be able to slow down, halt, or even reverse hair loss. This is a very old problem, but today it is certainly not an unsolvable one. The solution to your hair issues might be waiting right around the next corner.
