Guest guest Posted March 24, 2009 Report Share Posted March 24, 2009 > Hello. I also have a problem with female hair loss, that seemed to start when perimenopause hit me hard 5 years ago. It seems as though my hair has not grown in 5 years and has gotten thinner and more fragile. I am a woman and my hairline is receding. I know there is new growth but it never gets longer as the ends seem to wear away. What do you do if you don't eat meat or organ meats as suggested in " Traditional " ? I am new to eating raw foods and am not 100% (About 2 months in). My fingernails are taking a hit too. Lots of vertical ridges, splits, and general weakness. Any suggestions out there that won't cost a fortune in supplements? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 25, 2009 Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 I would find a good vitamin supplement. I recommend Docs Total Nutrition. This gives most people all of the vitamins and nutrients they need to support their body throughout the entire day. I can vouch for this being true as I use it daily and LOVE the way I feel after drinking it. Also you may need to do some balancing of your hormones. Chaste tree berry, dong qui and wild yam are three great herbs for balancing the hormones. Best of Health to you! Kelly Patricia Lynch wrote: > Hello.

Guest guest Posted March 25, 2009 Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 Firstly, could you be iodine deficient? A great portion of the population suffers from iodine deficiency and is not aware it of. I solved my problem by taking Iodoral, which is Lugol's in tablet form. You can google Iodoral to find out where to purchase it. Another thing that has vastly helped my hair is a supplement made from the Oleander extract called Sutherlandia OPC. This is actually sold as a cancer remedy but it also boosts the immune system and I have found that it helps with anxiety (which I suffer from) and a side effect is that my hair is now full and grows faster. Let me give you the link for this: http://www.sutherlandiaopc.com. This supplement comes from South Africa. Hope this has helped. But first of all, address the iodine issue. herbal remedies , "Patricia Lynch" <pmgraph1617 wrote:>> > Hello.

Guest guest Posted March 26, 2009 Report Share Posted March 26, 2009 Black beans, black chicken, black rice, black sesame, walnuts, red grapes, goji, shitake, sprouts, organic eggs. Raspberries and raspberry tea. QiGong/yoga/Tai Chi are great as well. In Chinese medicine, the hair is supported by blood and foundational essence. There are great points and herbs for that as well, but the above recommendations are stuff you can do for yourself. - " Patricia Lynch " <pmgraph1617 <herbal remedies > Tuesday, March 24, 2009 9:29 AM {Herbal Remedies} Female Hair Loss >> Hello.
