You
may have had many conversations with your friends and family about the positive
or negative effect of various food items. You may have discussed how food items
affect your health or your skin, but many of us forget to discuss the role of
many food items in stimulating hair loss problem.
Let's
take a closer look at some food items and how they could be either causing or
making your hair loss problem more severe.
Fried
Foods
We
know foods filled with unhealthy fats are never good for our health. However,
most of us don't know that those which consist of hydrogenated oils or are
fried can prove to be extremely terrible for their hair as well.
Many
studies have established a connection between increased levels of testosterone
with both saturated and unsaturated fats. This results in increasing DHT in the
body. DHT is a by-product which is known for causing hair loss. The production
of the essential fatty acids, which are required for proper growth of healthy
hair is suppressed by hydrogenated oils.
Sugar-Free
Foods
Do
you love to eat sweets? Are you worried about your health and planning to
switch to sugar-free foods? Choosing sugar-free food items may sound like an
excellent idea, but it can bring more harm than you realize. A few studies
conducted recently have shown that artificial sweetener is connected to hair
loss problem. Apart from causing hair loss problem, artificial sweeteners also
causes depression, bloating, and impotency.
Simple
Carbohydrates
Simple
carbohydrates like white carbs are more damaging than previously thought. When
we consume refined carbohydrates, any nutrients which have been ingested are
expected to start the digestion of the ingredients, which usually are also high
in sugar. Then, this sugar which can be seen as one of the unhealthiest
elements indirectly causes hair loss.
We
know that sugar can harm our body's ability to manage stress and you'll be
surprised to know that in many cases of hair loss stress is either a primary or
contributing factor. So, by consuming excess volumes of refined carbohydrates,
you might be making your hair loss problem worse. High fibre foods like bananas
and complex carbohydrates will ensure that the right nutrients reach the body,
making digestion a lot easier and an improved blood supply to the hair
follicles as well.
Additives
Often
seen as an unhealthy thing because of many reasons, still additives are widely
used by companies while manufacturing many food items. Apart from causing allergic
reactions, and affecting the behaviour of children, additives are known to
directly cause hair loss problem. This is also the case with additives that are
derived from natural ingredients.
Conclusion
Eating
only natural foods that have no known side-effects may appear to be a difficult
task, but by opting for organic food items and removing the above-mentioned
food items, you can make a remarkable difference to your hair loss problem.
However, if you've already lost too much of hair and hair regrowth looks like
an impossible idea, then a hair
transplant is the right solution for you.
