Hair loss may be associated with simple causes like bad hair care products, stress or severe medical conditions like alopecia areata. Lack of vitamins, inadequate nutrition, genetic causes and inadequate hair care can all result in hair loss. Here are some hair loss remedies in order to avoid baldness naturally:
Avoid shampoos and other hair products which contain alcohol and other chemicals. They can cause the strands to lose their structure which will weaken them and cause them to fall out.
Saw palmetto is in ninety percent of all the natural hair loss treatments that are on the market. It has become popular as a hair supplement because of its reputation for increasing prostate health by reducing DHT levels. Prostatic disease and hair loss are linked together in many different ways. Therefore, many herbalists have started to market saw palmetto as a treatment for hair problem.
Aloe vera is a tried and tested remedy in the Caribbean as well as India. It promotes healthy hair growth and also prevents hair loss. Aloe vera balances the pH level of the scalp and cleans the pores as well. It also soothes and heals the scalp. It can be used along with coconut milk and wheat germ oil. A number of herbal shampoos and conditioners have aloe vera as an ingredient.
Iron rich food prevent hair fall and help hair growth. Iron helps to produce hemoglobin that ensures the scalp is getting good amount of blood flow with required oxygen which is inevitable for the growth of new generation of hair. Raisin, green vegetables, dark green, date, egg contains a lot of iron.
Propecia was marketed as a treatment for the prostate originally as well. After patients noticed an improvement in their hair growth it was marketed for that too. Although saw palmetto can help lower the amount of DHT your body produces it is uncertain if it will work as well as propecia.
Natural oils are thinning hair loss remedies which provide protein and other nutrients to make the strands stronger. Alma oil, olive oil, castor oil, and coconut oil are all good for the strands and help stimulate growth.
Vitamin C improves the absorption of iron. So vitamin C rich foods like ripe fruits should be included with the food menu. Orange, lemon, strawberry, are rich in vitamin C.
