Guest guest Posted February 2, 2005 Report Share Posted February 2, 2005 Hello. My name is Regina (a/k/a Fidget). I'm new to the group and after reading several of these posts, had to add my 2 cents. First, because the show is now in progress, if you are still up and can tune in, Betty Martini, the founder of Mission Possible is on the radio now. Please go to http://www.xzone-radio.com and LISTEN NOW for Betty Martini about the deadly effects of aspartame. There may be other reasons for hair loss. Most people these days are constantly watching their intake of calories so they buy " sugar-free " products. If you and/or your daughter are drinking diet sodas, or other diet/sugar free products sweetened with aspartame (Nutrasweet) that could definitely be causing the problem. I would suggest you check out a few websites explaining the horrific effects this artificial sweetener has on the body. I drank diet coke and put " Equal " in my coffee for almost 20 yrs before I found out the truth. It has caused me numerous health problems, two being hypoglycemic and having fibromyalgia. Please visit www.dorway.com or www.aspartamekills.com or www.presidiotex.com/aspartame and read all the damning evidence. Aspartame is a deadly neurotoxic drug which has many sinister effects on the body which can be found in over 9000 products and counting. It can be found in artificial and natural flavorings and can also be found in ingredients labled as just high fructose corn syrup, which, as we know, is in everything! MSG is the sister neurotoxin so that needs to be avoided as well. Please visit www.truthinlabeling.org for a list of other names of ingredients that both aspartame and MSG might be called. Aspartame converts to methanol inside the body, which converts to formaldehyde and stores inside the fat cells and is very difficult to rid the body. It causes 92 different symptoms or problems, approved by the FDA. You can also read how aspartame got approved on these websites. Please take a look at the ingredients on all the products you purchase and be very careful to avoid purchasing them. If you have them in your pantry...throw'em out. Better yet, bring them back to the store and tell them you want to return them because they contain aspartame. Watch the look you get. Hope this information helps you find the cause of her problem.

Could the hair loss be caused by a food allergy?<<< Dave, Hair will grow back if the hair loss has been caused by poor diet, vitamin deficiency, iron deficiency, poor circulation and past acute illness or thyroid disease. Occasionally, factors such as stress, nutrition, altered immunity and hormonal imbalances have a role to play and intervention can improve the situation. A large number of essential nutrients are involved in healthy hair growth. These include: * all the essential amino acids, especially cysteine and methionine * vitamin A, biotin, vitamin B12, PABA (para amino benzoic acid), other B complex vitamins * unsaturated fatty acids (primrose, flaxseed, linseed, salmon, borage, black currant) * vitamin C, * vitamin E, * coenzyme Q 10,) * silica, zinc, copper and iron Ensuring an adequate intake of these in the diet or through supplementation enhances the health of the hair, skin and nails. To rule out a problem with thyroid, take her basal temp 10 minutes prior to her feet hitting the floor in the morning and let me know the results. In the meantime I would encourage you to try " wholefood supplements " rather than trying individual vitamin and mineral combinations. Warmest Regards, Christine Christine K.
