Q: I really need your advice. I have
been shedding hair for almost a whole year now and although the shedding is
normal, the re-growth is not. I am feeling very depressed and confused. I have
overall thinning throughout my scalp. My part has gotten wider and I feel less
density in my hair. I paid a lot of money to see a so-called "specialist" to
help me understand what I can do to stop my hair loss from getting worse - I was
simply told to use Rogaine. I did go through a lot of stress. I was under major
pressure. The doctor I went to see told me that this problem should reverse
itself - he did not tell me when. Can you help?
A: Normal hair
fallout is said to be between 100-125 per day which are replaced with new hairs.
Unfortunately, when these exceed more than 125 per day and hair is unable to
re-grow, then it is considered to be true hair loss. Many doctors suggest that
various factors, such as physical stress, emotional stress, medications or
hormonal change, all play some roles in hair loss, in addition to genetic
predisposition.
Noevir's
Revitalizing Herbal Hair Tonic is
formulated to help men and women who want to promote healthier hair. It's
special formula conditions and revitalizes the scalp to promote healthier,
fuller-looking hair.
In addition, I would like to encourage the taking of nutritional
supplements:
Inner Care Harmony--Can help protect the body from stress over a prolonged
period of time. Harmony supports adrenals with a full spectrum of B vitamins and
Vitamin C help nutritionally support the adrenals, which is the organ in your
body most affected by stress. Harmony relaxes and soothes with a full-spectrum
herbal concentrate - consisting of ashwagandha root, astragalus root, lycium
berry, wild yam root, wild jujunbe seed, chamomille and passion flower--helps
relax and soothe the body, while supporting the immune system and blocking the
action of chronic cortisol. It also helps support adrenals.
Inner Care Foundation--Under stress, many of us tend to have imbalanced
diets and this could affect some activities in the body including
production/regulation of hormones. Foundation is a basic
multi-vitamin/mineral/antioxidant to help ensure the body to receive all the
needed nutrients. It contains vitamins, minerals and antioxidants derived from
fruits and vegetables to help supply the body with daily nutritional needs.
Foundation's Benefits and Unique Ingredients:
-
Contains all of the vitamins that are essential to the continued
good health of vital organs and tissues.
-
Comprehensive minerals: Foundation's minerals are in the form of
patented amino acids chelates in bioavailable form to allow the body to utilize
them two to five times better than most commercial supplementals. Minerals are
important for maintaining the health and strength of the skeletal system.
-
Rich in Antioxidants: Antioxidants enable the body to defend
itself against cell damage by neutralizing free radicals caused by environmental
pollutants, unbalanced diets and everyday stress. NAC (n-acetylcysteine), for
example, is a potent antioxidant that increases the levels of glutathione, which
is a critical substance in the body for detoxification and free-radical
scavenging. Other known source of antioxidants include Rosemary extract
Isoflavones, Resveratrol and quercetin dihydrate --the strongest bioflavonoid
found in many plants, fruits and vegetables.
-
Effective homocysteine reducers: B6, B12, Folic acid and choline
are sources of homocysteine reducers, which helps the body keep homocycteine
levels low. Maintaining low levels of homocysteine is important to
cardiovascular and neurological health.
-
Enhanced bioavailability: Time Released Activation Noevir System
helps the body get the most out of the nutrients by increased the
bioavailability over a prolonged period of time.
