FALLING HAIR -

Does your hair fall a lot? Don’t worry, you’re not alone. Millions of people from all around the world suffer from dry, brittle and weak hair. Some of the possible reasons for falling hair are:

Tension
Too much work
Illness
Poor diet
Over-exposure to the sun
Perming
Amateur bleaching
Too frequent and inexpert use of tints, rinses or other colorants

Here is what you can do to prevent hair fall

Shampoo regularly. Remember, a CLEAN scalp is a HEALTHY SCALP.

Brahmi amla oil also promotes hair growth.

A high protein diet with plenty of fruits, green vegetables and dairy products is a must.

Drink 10-12 glass of water everyday.

Use a very mild shampoo and condition your hair at least twice a week. When you do, make sure you rinse out the conditioner thoroughly, otherwise residue build-up will cause your hair to look limp and dull.

Know your vitamins! IRON is important for healthy hair and brittle, limp hair indicates an iron deficiency. Spinach has a good iron content, so gulp it down!

ZINC helps prevent hair loss and greying. Eat adequate zinc rich foods. Overweight people tend to have zinc deficiency, which is inversely related to the body mass index. Thus if you are overweight and if your hair falls too much, you may want to increase your intake of zinc containing foods. Recipes containing stone ground, wholegrain flour are rich in zinc.

A shortfall in VITAMIN B may cause dandruff, falling hair, loss of colour and could encourage grey hair. So B group Vitamins are essential for gloss, colour and thickness.

VITAMIN C ensures the health of capillaries supplying blood to hair follicles. Make sure your diet includes plenty of fresh fruits and veggies.

VITAMIN E encourages hair growth. Switch from refined flours to wholemeal and wheatgerm, eggs, vegetable oil.

COPPER stops hair from falling. Studies show that the copper content in the blood serum of people with falling hair is less than normal. Different types of alopecia (falling hair) are seen to have a deficiency of this important trace element. Include small quantities of nuts, especially cashews and peanuts, seeds, whole milk and beans in your diet as these contain minute but important amounts of copper.

Homemade remedies for preventing hair fall:

Apply almond oil on scalp and massage.
Grind fenugreek seeds in water and apply on your scalp. Wash off after 40 minutes. Do this every morning for a month ¡V if it suits you! Remember, different treatments suit different types of hair.
Massage warm castor oil + almond oil into your scalp gently. Wrap a hot towel around your scalp so it gets absorbed into the hair. Do this twice a week for healthy, shiny hair.
Add 2-3 drops of honey to a glass of water and use this as the last rinse after shampooing.

Quick Hair Care Conditioner

Mix 1 egg, 2 tbs castor oil, 1 tsp vinegar and 1 tsp glycerine. Beat until frothy and massage lightly into your scalp. Wrap your head in a hot towel, steam, then wash off. This conditioner makes hair thicker, shiny, soft and manageable.

Honey Conditioner

Beat 1-2 eggs (depending on the length of the hair), 1 tsp honey and 2 tsp olive oil. Massage gently into the scalp. Steam, and shampoo after an hour.

Alcohol Conditioner

Beat 1-2 eggs with 2 tsp brandy. Massage into your scalp. Leave for 10-15 mins. Rinse well. The egg nourishes your hair and brandy stimulates hair growth.

Your hair is a vital beauty asset, requiring constant loving care. And with a little nurturing, lush, glossy hair will be yours

ESSENTIALS FOR FALLING HAIR -

Does your hair fall often Arm yourself with these tools to combat hair fall.

Wide-toothed comb

Get yourself a wide-toothed comb. This is probably one of the most important yet underutilized of all hair tools. A wide-toothed comb helps you distribute conditioner evenly all over your hair while shampooing and conditioning. In addition, it also helps get rid of knots smoothly.

The best time to get rid of knots is during conditioning. Apply conditioner and run a wide toothed comb gently through your hair.

While untangling dry hair, do so in sections. Take one section at a time, and first, untangle the ends of your hair. Do so slowly, and don?t pull unless you want your hair to fall out in clumps or break.

Don?t wait for the last minute before detangling your hair. Every night, while sitting in front of the television, run a wide toothed comb gently through your hair, until you have untangled it completely. Do this every night, and you will notice that your hair remains free from tangles.

Leave-in conditioner
Dry hair tends to tangle easily, and, needless to say, causes it to break. Make sure your hair is never devoid of moisture by always keeping a bottle of leave-in conditioner handy. The next time you feel your hair is dry and rough to the touch, simply rub a dollop of leave-in conditioner between your palms, and apply it to your hair. Comb through with your wide toothed comb. Your hair will be instantly rejuvenated and moisturized. Gradually, the texture will also improve. This is a must if you blow dry your hair regularly, or if it is chemically treated. Such hair constantly craves moisture, so get yourself a bottle of leave-in conditioner.

Oil
Olive, almond and coconut oils are all excellent for the hair. While you could apply oil as an alternative to leave-in conditioner, oil tends to make your hair sticky, and you cannot style your hair well after applying oil. Your only alternative would then be to tie up your hair. For better results with oil, apply just a few drops immediately after washing your hair, when your hair is still dripping wet. Oil doesn?t penetrate the strands as easily as leave-in conditioner does though. Nothing beats a hot oil massage followed by a steam treatment, as the steam helps the oil penetrate the hair strands, strengthening them and curtailing hair fall.

Egg
Egg is great for the hair ? there are no two ways about it! True, it causes a tremendous stink in the bathroom, and your hair may let off an ?eggy? smell, but the results are instantaneous and worth it! Egg strengthens your hair almost immediately, and the egg yolk leaves your hair shining. Whip an egg with two tablespoons of olive oil and apply it to your hair. Wash off after half an hour. Make sure you wash off with cold water though, or the egg will start cooking in your hair, and would be harder to take off! Use a scented shampoo to counter the smell of egg in your hair, and follow up with a leave-in conditioner. Do this for a month, and you will be amazed by the change in your hair texture and the reduction in hair fall.

Question by Geeeek: What foods are staples in a dairy and gluten free diet?
I’m going on a dairy and gluten free diet because of complications with psoriasis and was wondering which foods are commonly consumed by people who eat this way.

Also, what are some common foods that I would think are fine that I should avoid?

Thanks.

Answer by cyn_texas
I would suggest you check out the low carb recipe sites. Their recipes are almost all lactose & gluten free.

Gluten is also used in foods in some unexpected ways, for example as a stabilizing agent or thickener in products like ice-cream and ketchup.

Lactose is usually the allergen in milk but you should be able to have cheese, butter, whey protein, cream and probably even yogurt. I have been low carbing for nearly 6 years and my diet is very high in seeds now. I eat flax seeds & chia seeds almost every day. Chia seeds really have no taste, and swell up absorbing 10X their weight in fluid, an ounce will make 10 oz of food. I usually include them as half the volume of most all foods.

Chia seeds sound so expensive but 1# will make 10# food – Amazon.com has couple lbs. for $ 16 shipped to you. I buy in bulk (24#) from getchia.com for $ 6# with free shipping.

Chia seeds – 3.5 oz is nearly 500 calories, half calories from fat (high in Omega3 fatty acids) 38g fiber 151%DV & 16grams of COMPLETE protein for 6grams carbs & 63% DV Calcium – 95% Phosphorus – 23% Zinc – 9% Copper – 108% Manganese.

Faux tapioca – 2 cups of water, 5 scoops of low carb whey protein powder, stir together & add cup of chia seeds, after they have started to absorb the water, add in 2 cans of coconut milk (or cream and added water) & sweetener if you like and mix it all in. Can be eaten after an hour but will be better tomorrow. Cream a pkg. of cream cheese into a can of pumpkin and add to the faux tapioca for an even more nutritious pumpkin pie pudding.

per wiki -

Several grains and starch sources are considered acceptable for a gluten-free diet. The most frequently used are maize, potatoes, rice, and tapioca (derived from cassava). Other grains and starch sources generally considered suitable for gluten-free diets include amaranth, arrowroot, millet, montina, lupin, quinoa, sorghum (jowar), sweet potato, taro, teff, chia seed, and yam. Various types of bean, soybean, and nut flours are sometimes used in gluten-free products to add protein and dietary fiber. In spite of its name, buckwheat is not related to wheat; pure buckwheat is considered acceptable for a gluten-free diet, although many commercial buckwheat products are actually mixtures of wheat and buckwheat flours, and thus not acceptable. Gram flour, derived from chickpeas, is also gluten-free (this is not the same as Graham flour made from wheat).

Question by Riddler: How can you control eczema around your eyes?
Every winter I get eczema around my eyes and today it is especially red and irritated. I know that is a sensitive area and normal creams and topical steroids that you would ordinarily use are not good to use near the eyes. Are there any over-the-counter creams or gels I could find to help with this? It is bothersome and unattractive. Thanks!

Question by jmelvin587: Which is better for mole removal, itworkspaste or Derma Tend, or should I just get laser removal?
I would like to remove a mole on my face and a few on my body. I was considering laser mole removal by a plastic surgeon. However, it is pricey. I have read some good things about Derma Tend and itworkspaste, but I am not sure which is better, and if they really work. I have also heard some bad things about bloodroot, an ingredient in Derma Tend (and maybe itworkspaste?), but I’m not sure what to believe. Thanks!

I used this stuff I bought on ebay, it’s 100% TCA, the seller was maggme100, and it only cost like 10 bucks. I went back to buy some more and it just says 100% mole remover because I think it’s medical grade (not allowed). My moles were on my side, I used the TCA and they dried up and fell off so easily! It’s the only thing that has ever worked for me! Good Luck!

Question by rick o: Is there a way to improve eyesight naturally? And is Lasik eye surgery available for people with astigamatism?
I’m 20 years old and my eyesight is really bad (probably from all the years of video games, tv, and surfing the internet). I’ve decided to limit my time spent on these activities, but what I want to know is if there’s a way to improve your eyesight without the use of glasses or contacts?

Also, I’ve heard from someone that people with astigmatism can’t get that eye restoration surgery. Is that true? Not that I can afford it right now anyway, I just want to know my options later on.

Best answer:

Answer by Thomas H
Yes, LASIK is the perfect solution for astigmatism which is caused by the irregular shape of the corneal.

I had astigmatism corrected with LASIK many years ago.
It’s is a great feeling to see without glasses again.

I doubt there are any natural cure for poor eyesight unless the causes is due to poor diet that affects the health of the eye itself like the retinas, the corneal etc. Taking food high in antioxidants is believe to keep tissues in the retina and corneas healthy. Wearing sun glasses to prevent UV damage to the eyes in good when outdoors.

Question by summerfun10: How do you stop sweating so much?
I sweat alot, and its super gross. Is there anyway to stop sweating so much, especially during sports and stuff.

Best answer:

Answer by beinggirl experts
Understand this isn’t unusual as a teen or during your 20′s. Excessive sweating may be all over the body or it can be limited to certain areas of the body. It most commonly affects the underarms, palms of the hands, and soles of the feet, although it has also been known to affect the face, neck, backs of the knees, groin, and beneath the breasts.

The best ways to prevent body odor are to wash daily making sure you pay attention to your underarms, wear clothes that breathe like cotton, and to use a deodorant or antiperspirant.

Deodorants will not stop the sweat, they just partially cover up the smell. Antiperspirants help stop the sweat before it starts with a chemical called aluminum chlorohydrate. It actually stops the perspiration process.

Deodorants work best when they go on after you have showered and the skin under your armpits is slightly damp. Most deodorants or antiperspirants are white, but some people don’t like the white residue it can leave on their clothes. But some find that clear deodorants and antiperspirants don’t work as well. It’s is a personal choice of finding what product works best for you.

Try Secret Clinical Strength. It has been clinically proven to provide prescription strength wetness protection.

Another hint is if you shower at night and apply deodorant then reapply it in the morning.

Question by Edelweiss: Is mole removal painful and what should someone expect?
I wondered if mole removal is painful and what are some things I should be aware of. I’ve had two entire toenails removed which wasn’t the most pleasant of experiences and I wondered if that would be worse than getting moles removed.

Best answer:

Answer by Ms.BlackBerry
They give you a numbing shot right where the mole is and they burn it off in a few seconds depending on the size. All that will be left is the little mark of the mole. There is nothing to worry about you won’t even feel a thing.

The best advice I ever received was to not be in a quiet place when it is bothering you. Sounds dumb, but it works. Cutting out caffeine, chocolate, and salt may help. Other than that, I know of nothing.
