Q & A
What are the common causes of hair loss mentioned in the script?
-The script mentions several common causes of hair loss, including the use of chemical hair dyes, hair straightening treatments, nutritional deficiencies, certain medications, tight braiding, hormonal imbalances, stress, and anemia.
How does chemical hair dye contribute to hair loss?
-Chemical hair dyes can contribute to hair loss by gradually damaging the hair follicles over time, leading to their eventual death and hair loss.
What is the impact of hair straightening treatments on hair health?
-Hair straightening treatments use toxic chemicals that break the bonds in the hair structure, weaken the hair, and can lead to hair loss when the hair is repeatedly damaged and the follicles are compromised.
Why are nutritional deficiencies linked to hair loss?
-Nutritional deficiencies, particularly in essential nutrients like iron, zinc, biotin, and protein, can weaken hair, making it more susceptible to falling out due to a lack of necessary support for healthy hair growth.
How can certain medications lead to hair loss as a side effect?
-Some medications, such as those for blood pressure, cancer, or depression, may have hair loss as a side effect. If hair loss is suspected to be due to medication, speaking with a doctor about alternatives or solutions is recommended.
What is the role of hormones in hair loss?
-Hormonal imbalances can contribute to hair loss through various mechanisms, including fluctuations in androgen hormones like testosterone, which can affect hair follicles in conditions like androgenetic alopecia, or hormonal shifts during pregnancy, menopause, or due to thyroid disorders.
How does stress affect hair health?
-Stress hormones like cortisol can impact hair health by disrupting the normal growth cycle, leading to temporary hair loss known as telogen effluvium, where increased shedding occurs.
What is the significance of anemia in relation to hair loss?
-Anemia, which is characterized by very low iron levels in the blood, can cause hair loss as the body cannot produce sufficient hemoglobin, leading to decreased oxygen delivery to cells, including hair follicles, and disrupting the growth phase of hair follicles.
What natural remedy is suggested in the script for promoting hair growth?
-The script suggests a natural remedy of mixing half a cup of coconut oil, half a cup of castor oil, and 10 drops of Rosemary essential oil. This mixture can be massaged into the scalp once a week to stimulate blood supply and nourish the hair follicles.
Why should sodium laurel sulfate be avoided in shampoos?
-Sodium laurel sulfate, a chemical found in many shampoos, should be avoided because it can kill hair follicles and is responsible for the foaming action of shampoos, which can be detrimental to scalp and hair health.
What lifestyle changes are recommended in the script to support hair health?
-The script recommends several lifestyle changes to support hair health, including regular exercise to increase blood circulation, staying well-hydrated, maintaining a balanced diet rich in essential nutrients, ensuring adequate sleep, and avoiding stress.

hair loss or
alopecia is a problem that I often get
asked about what can we do for hair loss
how can we grow new
hair in this video I'm going to uncover
the causes of hair loss how to prevent
it some natural remedies for hair loss
and how to achieve longer and healthier
hair keep watching well first of all we
have to put the detective hat on and
find out why there is hair loss so what
would be some of the most common causes
of hair loss well one friend of
mine she always dyed her hair her hair
she was showing gray hair from a very
early age and so from about the age of
uh 30 she began to dye her hair now you
can get a hair
dye made of henna and henna is a plant
that can dye your hair and that is not
toxic but my friend did not use that one
she used a chemical hair dye and little
by little it was killing off her her
follicles where the hair grows so it can
be chemicals on the hair another friend
of mine did not like her very curly hair
and so all her life from probably about
her late teens right up until her 50s
she straightened her hair now the
solutions that they use to straighten
the hair or for people with straight
hair that want curly hair it is a a very
toxic chemical so what happens is if a
person wants to straighten their hair
they would what the hairdresser does is
pull the hair over great big rods like
that and so the the curly hair that's
this curly of course gets pulled over
them and that straightens it but if a
person's got straight hair and they want
curly hair well the rods are that big
and they stretch the hair around and
around and around so whether it's to
straighten the hair or whether it's to
curl the hair they put this toxic
Solution on it's a strong chemical and
what it does is it breaks all the little
joins in the hair because hair has all
these little joints like this so what it
does is it breaks the joints breaks the
joins and then it's molded of course
around either there for the curl or
there for the straight and then
when all of those little bonds are
broken and it's been stretched into a
certain shape they rinse off that
chemical and then they put another
chemical on to set it so to set the
bonds together and then that sets the
hair structure as straight or as curly
so basically that's how the hair is
permed nutritional deficiencies also
play a significant role in hair Health a
diet lacking essential nutrients such as
ion zinc Biotin and protein can weaken
hair making it more prone to falling out
ensuring a balanced diet rich in
vitamins and minerals is crucial for
maintaining healthy hair growth
additionally certain medications such as
those for blood pressure cancer or
depression may have side effects that
include hair loss if you suspect your
medication is causing hair loss speak
with your doctor about potential
Alternatives or Solutions
understanding these causes is the first
step in addressing hair loss effectively
identifying the root cause allows for
targeted treatments and lifestyle
adjustments that can promote healthier
hair growth I have also seen in some
areas where people braid their hair
really really tightly you'll often see
that they've got hair loss around here
where you've got that weight you've got
that constant weight on the on the hair
which can really just keep pulling the
hair out and then
then the follicles are damaged so no
matter how it
happens we must stop what is causing the
damage that's first one if you don't
turn the tap off you're still mopping up
in the other
Corner sometimes I see hair loss in a
hormonal imbalance so if it's a hormonal
imbalance then the hormones must be
Balan back
again hormonal changes can contribute to
hair loss through various mechanisms for
instance fluctuations in Androgen
hormones like testosterone can affect
hair follicles in conditions like
androgenetic alopecia male pattern
boldness or female pattern hair loss
sensitivity of hair follicles to these
hormones can lead to miniaturization of
hair follicles and eventually hair loss
hormonal shifts during pregnancy
menopause or thyroid disorders can also
influence hair growth Cycles caus cing
increased shedding or thinning stress
hormones like cortisol can also impact
hair Health disrupting the normal growth
cycle and leading to temporary hair loss
known as telogen
aium sometimes high stress if someone
goes through a very stressful situation
one of the reactions can be hair loss so
what can you do to bring it back again
ah there's one more that I didn't
mention and that's
anemia if a person is anemic it can
cause hair loss so what's anemic anemic
means very low iron in the blood and
anemia can be caused because of heavy
blood loss at period time a lot of women
suffer from that and that can cause
anemia and the anemia can cause the hair
loss so to resolve that again Watch My
lecture on hormones boost the
progesterone get the estrogen down then
there won't be the heavy blood loss
every month month and the person won't
be anemic anymore and so again the hair
can grow another cause of anemia can be
low hydrochloric acid because ion is
bound up in food and it needs acid to
liberate from food so it's very
important that the person ensure they
have nice strong hydrochloric acid a
simple way to ensure that is to have a/
qu of a teaspoon of can and pepper and a
little bit of water before every meal if
you're finding that a little bit hard
you can have the juice of a lemon before
every meal important to leave a break
between meals important not to drink
water with your meals cuz that dilutes
the hydrochloric acid also important to
have a very happy relaxed environment at
the meal table I Target those points in
more detail on my lecture on the gut so
the causes of hair loss can be anemia it
can be high stress it can be a hormonal
imbalance and it can be damage that's
just physical damage this has been done
to the hair
follicles without enough iron the body
can't produce sufficient hemoglobin
leading to decreased oxygen delivery to
cells including hair follicles hair
follicles are highly active and require
adequate oxygen and nutrients to support
hair growth when they don't receive
enough oxygen due to anemia the growth
phase of hair follicles can be disrupted
this can lead to weaker thinner hair
strands that are more prone to breakage
and shedding severe anemia can trigger a
condition called telogen effluvium where
a large number of hair follicles
prematurely enter the resting telogen
phase of the hair growth cycle this
results in increased shedding of hair
but what can you do to the scalp to
encourage the hair to grow again you can
make a mix that you can put on your hair
and this mix is let's let's make up the
mix so half a cup of coconut
oil and half a cup of castor
oil Castoro is a very thick
oil but Castor o penetrates deeper than
any other oil so when that is put onto
the scalp it penetrates even deeper
coconut oil is a very nourishing oil
it's an anti- fungal oil antibacterial
oil but what you also can put with that
so now you've got a cup of oil there to
that cup of oil you can add 10
drops of Rosemary essential oil
Rosemary is a herb that's specific for
the scalp Rosemary essential oil so you
could make up this mix in a jar and and
mix it very very well and maybe once a
week you you massage it into the scalp
your hair will be very oily of course
but you massage it into the scalp just
even the massaging into the scalp
stimulates blood supply to the hair
follicles that pastol penetrates very
deep and wherever it penetrates it can
revive life into that area and the
coconut also is a very nourishing oil
and the Rosemary essential oil
stimulates every herb stimulates
different parts of the body and this
Rosemary herb is specific for the
scalp the massaging so leave it in it's
not much as you can maybe you choose a
Sunday when you may be going to be home
all day and at the end of the day you
wash out now you might need to put
shampoo on a couple of times to get all
that oil out just use a little bit of
hot water and then and then a nice
amount of
shampoo in addition to this hibiscus
flowers are known for their hair
strengthening properties these red
flowers are rich in vitamins minerals
and amino acids that nourish the scalp
and hair follicles promoting healthy
hair growth and preventing hair
thinning take three to four flowers and
crush them with coconut oil to create a
paste apply the paste to your scalp and
hair leave it on for 30 minutes then
rinse with water use this treatment once
or twice a week for noticeable results
and if it's still a little bit greasy
maybe shampoo it again now that brings
us to the shampoo there's something that
you must keep right away from and it's
called sodium Laurel
sulfate sodium Laurel
sulfate is what's in many shampoos and
sodium Laurel sulfate kills the hair
follicles
so it's important to take a magnifying
glass into the shop and read the labels
in places like Whole Food Sprouts Trader
Joe's where they have a lot of uh health
foods and they have a lot of supplements
and they have a more healthier brand of
products so have a look for a shampoo
that has no so we've got to make sure
you realize no sodium Lal sulfate
because the sodium Lal sulfate is a
chemical that causes the foaming of the
shampoo and that sodium Laurel sulfate
has the ability to kill the hair
follicles in the scalp so please keep
away from that you can get some very
nice coconut based shampoos coconut is
very nourishing to the
scalp When selecting a shampoo look for
labels that indicate it is sulfate free
there are many natural and organic
shampoos available that do not contain
sodium Laurel sulfate use choosing these
will be gentler on your scalp and hair
reducing the risk of further hair loss
it's beneficial to choose products
containing nourishing ingredients such
as biotin keratin vitamins and essential
oils which can strengthen hair and
support growth natural extracts like
aloe vera Rosemary and tea tree are also
helpful in maintaining scalp health and
promoting healthier hair When selecting
a shampoo prioritize those designed to
be gentle
yet effective in cleansing and nurturing
your hair and scalp exercise what
exercise does is it increases the
circulation of the blood to the
extremities and the scalp is considered
an extremity so exercise daily
especially the high intensity interval
training the high intensity interval
training because of the periods of very
high intensity that really gets the
blood moving out to the extremities so
that should be done
daily and hydration keep well hydration
remember the rule of thumb is is eight
glasses to 100 lb body
weight that's a good rule of thumb too
to know how much to uh how much water to
give the children nourishment we need to
nourish that scalp from the inside
because your scalp is fed by your blood
that's why when you exercise you get
more blood to the air area but when you
get the blood to the area you want it to
be well watered exercise will
automatically put the oxygen in there
and nourishment we need to be having a
high fiber diet high
fiber we also need to be having generous
amounts of protein here's your legumes
your nuts your seeds so generous
proteins proteins are the building
blocks of the
body and healthy
fats so there's your nuts your seeds
your avocados coconut coconut and olive
oil consuming a variety of fruits and
vegetables is also crucial as they
provide essential vitamins and minerals
that support overall health including
the health of your
scalp B vitamins particularly biotin are
vital for hair health foods like eggs
leafy greens and whole grains are good
sources omega-3 fatty acids found in
fish like salmon as well as flax seeds
and walnuts can help maintain a healthy
scalp
sleep you want to heal you got to get 8
hours 8 hours not negotiable every night
the sleep is vital the sleep is not
negotiable if you're not used to that
much sleep little by little by little
you can train yourself back into
sleeping longer Rome wasn't built in a
day but little by little by little as
you take those steps that are conducive
to good sleep breakfast like a king
lunch like a queen light or no evening
meal going to bed early soft lights soft
music fresh air coming in nice clean
natural fiber sheets and pillows all of
this is conducive to a good night's
sleep sleep helps prevent hair loss by
reducing stress levels which can
contribute to hair thinning during sleep
the body undergo repair and regener
generation processes including hair
follicle Health adequate sleep promotes
proper hormone balance including
cortisol and melatonin which are crucial
for hair growth poor sleep disrupts
these processes potentially leading to
increased hair shedding additionally
good sleep improves blood circulation
delivering essential nutrients to hair
follicles therefore maintaining a
regular sleep schedule can support
overall hair health and minimize hair
loss so we might as well start with
hair the color of their hair a lot has
to do with genetics my husband is white
and both his parents were white at
50 and my mother died at 51 with brown
hair and my father just passed at 92
with graying hair but a lot of black now
there's my brother then me and three
younger sisters and none of us have gray
hair because from both sides of our
family um there wasn't gray now my
father's sister she died at 68 with
brown hair and at the funeral I saw my
three cousins her sons that I haven't
seen for a long time and they're all
gray so they've probably got that a
little bit from The Father's Side so
Michael and I are interesting because
we're both extremes really both his
parents wide at 50 and my parents are
not
gray but I also know that people have
claimed to get the color back in their
hair by drinking a lot of green drinks
now what green drinks contain is a lot
of
minerals and when you consider what we
talked about this afternoon that the
mineral content of the soil is about 50%
L less what it was 50 years ago
that a lot of the foods today have less
minerals in them you see in Australia
the soil is ju the plants are just put
in year after year after year what
should happen is when a crop comes out
of the ground then the soil should be
fed with Rich compest because every time
a crop is in the ground it's taking
nutrients out and if you don't replace
the nutrients then the next crop that's
grown there is is going to be nutrient
deficient so that makes sense doesn't it
so really looking at
agriculture is the only way to change
the farming habits and unfortunately
because there's big dollars made in Big
Industry and growing lots of staff and
super phosphate um I don't know how that
will ever turn
around but you can do the best you can
you can grow as much as you can you can
buy the best quality that you can and
you can have have green drinks so how do
you have green
drinks well you can buy chlorophyll you
can buy green barley powder you can buy
wheat grass powder you can buy Super
greens
so basically taking that three times a
day making sure you have lots of greens
in your in your daily salad will ensure
it you don't lose the minerals when you
cook your greens you only lose your
minerals if you throw the water away
that you cook cook them
in green drinks are considered
beneficial because they contain high
levels of chlorophyll which not only
gives plants their green color but also
offers potential health benefits for
humans chlorophyll is often touted for
its antioxidant properties and its
ability to help detoxify the body this
compound is believed to Aid in reducing
inflammation promoting wound healing and
even enhancing red blood cell production
in addition to chlorophyll green drinks
are rich in essential vitamins and
minerals like vitamin A vitamin C
vitamin K and various B vitamins these
nutrients play crucial roles in
maintaining overall health supporting
immune function and contributing to
vibrant skin and hair the idea of using
green drinks to potentially reverse hair
color or slow down graying stems from
the belief that a nutrient-rich diet can
impact hair health hair color is
influenced by melanin production and
while genetics primarily determine when
and how hair turns gray diet and
lifestyle factors can also play a role
in maintaining hair Health regarding
agricultural practices the depletion of
soil minerals is a significant concern
globally modern farming methods often
prioritize high yields and fast growth
over soil
sustainability continuous planting
without proper soil replenishment leads
to nutrient depletion affecting the
nutritional quality of crops grown in
such
conditions to address these challenges
some farmers are adopting sustainable
agricultural practices such as crop
rotation cover cropping and organic
farming these methods help maintain soil
fertility reduce the need for chemical
fertilizers and promote biodiversity
consumers too can support sustainable
agriculture by choosing locally grown
produce supporting organic farming
initiatives and advocating for
responsible farming practices so while
green drinks and dietary supplements can
provide valuable nutrients they should
complement a balanced diet rich in
fruits vegetables whole grains and lean
proteins a holistic approach to health
including mindful eating and sustainable
agriculture contributes to overall
well-being and environmental stewardship
