Natural Hair Loss Treatment - The Lost Art of Hair Repair
While there are certainly a number of medical treatments that
offer great results, experts say that natural hair loss
treatment can yield some of the best benefits for anyone
concerned about the health of their hair. Most people choose to
treat their hair loss with medications or surgery, such as
Minoxidil or hair transplantation. However many people fail to
realize that medication and surgery are costly and may carry
some harmful side effects and risks. The safest and most cost
efficient form of hair loss therapy is natural hair loss
treatment, which includes healthy dieting, herbal remedies,
exercise and proper hair care techniques. Natural hair loss
treatment has become the "Lost Art" of hair repair and is
often neglected as a form of treatment among the very pricey
alternatives.
A fundamental principal in natural hair loss treatment is that the same
foods that are good for your health, are good for your hair.
Although hair loss can be caused by many other variables, lack
of proper nutrition will cause hair loss in most people. Foods
that are high in protein, low in carbohydrates, and have reduced
fat content can help in maintaining healthier hair and
preventing hair loss. For example, essential fatty acids, found
in spinach, walnuts, soy, tuna, sardines, sunflower seeds and
canola oil, are important dietary essentials useful in keeping
hair healthy. The omega 3 and omega 6 fatty acids contain
anti-inflammatory properties that are useful in maintaining
healthy hair. Insufficient levels of these essential fatty acids
could lead to quicker hair loss. A deficiency in vitamin B6 and
vitamin B12 can also lead to excessive hair loss. Foods
containing B vitamins, like liver, chicken, fish and soybean are
important to healthy hair growth and natural hair loss
treatment. Both vitamin B6 and vitamin B12 are found in protein
rich foods, which are needed to maintain natural hair growth. B
vitamins are very essential to one's diet in order to prevent
excessive hair loss. Certain vitamins and nutritional
supplements are often necessary to restore protein levels which
in turn, are useful in preventing hair loss. Increasing vitamin
B intake in one's diet is a successful way to prevent or treat
your hair loss
naturally.
Alongside the concept of healthy eating of vitamins, minerals
and nutrients are also the use of herbal remedies that are
effective in preventing hair loss as a natural hair loss
treatment. Among the herbs making medical headlines is Saw
Palmetto. Although most studies of Saw Palmetto have been for
the treatment of prostatic disease, more recent studies have
been conducted on its effectiveness in treating hair loss. The
herb has been found to work in fighting benign prostatic disease
by lowering levels of DHT, which is a known cause of androgenic
alopecia, the medical term for male or female pattern hair loss.
While there are no clinical trials supporting this herb's
usefulness as a natural hair loss treatment, there is some
reliable research proving that it can slow down androgen
activity within the hair follicle. Nettles, usually taken in the
form of Nettle Root Extract, has shown itself to be effective in
preventing hair loss as well. Nettles are rich in vitamins A and
C, that are beneficial in inhibiting DHT production and
promoting hair growth as a natural hair loss treatment. Other
traditional herbs that are useful as natural hair loss
treatments are green tea, licorice extract, horsetail, ginger,
psoralea seeds, apple cider vinegar, rosemary and sage tea.
Research is constantly discovering modern forms of natural hair
loss treatments. The list of treatments summarized in this
article are only a fraction of the available natural therapies
for hair loss. Everyone has some hair loss from day to day. In
fact, it is normal to lose up to 100 strands of hair a day.
However, some people lose a lot more hair than expected, due to
genetic reasons, disease, medications, stress, injury, or an
unhealthy diet. Regardless of the cause of hair loss, natural
hair loss treatment, involving changes in diet and lifestyle, is
the safest form of preventive hair treatment around. Catching
your hair loss in its early stages and treating it naturally is
among the best lines of defense in preventing excessive hair
loss and the safest method for treating it.
