What Can Cause Hair Loss?
Among the many things that can cause hair loss to occur, here's my personal take on it all …
- Poor Nutrition – If you didn’t know this already, once we grow up and leave mommy’s house; we no longer have access to those nutritious meals she use to feed us. Instead, we’re on our own, which means fast food, hot dogs, pizza, ice cream, beer ’n’ tacos. Well, I’m exaggerating to make a point. But, where are the nutrients in these foods? There aren’t any. Hair needs nutrients to grow. Check out my awesome salad recipe and juicing for real energy article. You have to get your vitamins and minerals, and I love getting them from juicing live fruits and vegetables.
- Poor Scalp Circulation – As we get older, our once great circulation system can lose some of its efficiency. Among them is proper circulation to the scalp. When blood isn’t circulating to the scalp as it should be, nutrients can’t get (a ride) up there.
- Clogged (Scalp) Skin Cells – Hair has a hard time growing when the surface of the scalp is clogged with oils and sebum.
- Poor Hair Care – Wash, condition and brush your hair often.
- Abuse Of The Hair – Don’t pull, yank or over chemicalize.
- Stress, Stress, Stress – Stress destroys cells and lots more.
- Little Sleep – Three hours a night won’t cut it!
- Over Shampooing Your Hair – Many shampoos contain chemicals and cleaning agents that are not good for the hair.
- Hereditary Causes – Are your relatives losing their hair? Look to your mother’s father?
- Hormonal Problems – Maybe there are imbalances.
- Some Medicines – Absolutely …
- Certain Infections – Very possibly …
- Birth Control Pills (Women) – It’s been known to happen.
- Pregnancy (Women and Men!) – Stress and other issues.
- Vitamin And Mineral Deficiencies – Nutrition again …
In many cases though, prevention can help thwart present and future hair loss, and in some cases, either slow it down or stop it all together!
