    I’m 50, have a few grey hairs and some thinning at the crown of my head.
    I’ve maintained my current hair thickness for about the last 17years with little change.
    I can tell you from my life experience that chronic stress caused my hair to fall out in my early 30’s.
    At 30, I had collar length, thick hair with zero grey. I got promoted to a higher paying high stress job and by 32, I’d lost the hair on the top of my head and started to grey.
    I quit that job and learned how to balance my work/life better to mitigate stress, and my hair loss completely stopped.
    I started to think that if stress did that to my scalp, what else was it doing that I couldn’t see yet?
    Number one rule: Your health is all you really have to lose in life. Don’t sell it to anyone for any price.
    Number two rule: If you have an opportunity to ‘de-stress’ in a healthy manner, even if temporarily (music/sauna/emotional expression/massage/walk/pet animal/sleep/friendship etc) take it ASAP.
    Best of luck to you.👍🙏

    The most effective thing to keep the hair follicles from dying is to rid them of DHT, which will choke out the follicles and kill them. Best way, topical polysorbate 80, an emulsifier that will rid the follicle of the waxy sebum that no shampoo can do, which gets rid of the DHT as well. This is not new, it was called the Helsinki formula back in the 80s. it is under appreciated because people are more interested in' growing' hair, than 'keeping' the hair they have. You can get polysorbate 80 from Bulk Apothecary, etc.

    Two things which have helped my hair grow:
    --1 -2 minute handstands, basically this is the INVERSION method of hair growth and it gets blood back into the head more efficiently than anything
    -- boiling rosemary and mint in WATER for 20 minutes with lid on the pan then 20 minutes simmering with lid off to make an infusion of the herbs. Keep in a spray bottle in the fridge for a week at a time to massage onto thinning parts of the scalp twice a day. Spray and massage the infusion to encourage blood flow and nutrients to the scalp while reducing inflammation by gentle removal of dirt/oil/sebum/dust from parts of the scalp.

  • @AmyLeeAngelLove

    Very informative! I started greying at 17 and now at almost 39, it's mostly around the bang area.. some scattered throughout. My mom's hair was 50% grey by 38. I noticed every single one of my grey strands was dark brown/black at the root after consuming lots of baked potatoes. Once I stopped, my new growth was grey. I tried it again a few months later (eating lots of baked potatoes) and the root was dark brown/black once again. I couldn't find any studies on grey hair reversal and potatoes... so, I was shocked that something as simple as eating a root vegetable was enough for melanin production.... in my case. As for my hair loss, it was always due to a nutritional deficiency from extreme dieting for long periods, Senna tea, and Covid. It took anywhere from 1 yr to 3 yrs for the massive shedding to stop... depending on the cause. Eating enough fruit, veggies, and legumes.. along with diluted Braggs apple cider vinegar scalp rinses, water/dry fasting (sometimes once or twice a week.. sometimes twice a month), and drinking a gallon of water daily helped dramatically. I also include a brazil nut daily.

    I've always had a hairline that looks like it's receding but it's never changed much. My maternal grandfather died with a full head of gray hair in the pattern I have.
    I did begin graying around 40. The graying could have been associated with degenerative disc disease, I guess. I did treat that with edibles and vapor. Since going keto, my inflammation improved wildly. Can't say there's been any un-graying of my hair. My skin is wildly better, though.

    losing head hair. He explains scalp massage. I use a high percussion sports massager and topically zinc and vitamin A and Aloe Vera. Copper citrate helps prevent graying plus the enzyme catalace.

      Hair loss is fairly straightforward.
      It's caused by DHT(dihydrotestosterone)
      DHT can be lowered with medication or supplements.
      Saw palmetto and pygeum can reduce testosterone conversion to DHT.
      It does this by interfering with 5 alpha reductase, reducing total DHT, which can also raise testosterone, or binding of the DHT with androgen receptors, preventing their effect.
      DHT is also responsible for enlarged prostates as men age, so is a good one to address anyway... Imo the reduced and reversed male pattern progression is just a plus.
      The drugs minoxadil And finasteride do this via the same actions, and seem to be a a bit more effective.

For my skin, I’ve noticed a huge improvement with regard to fewer wrinkles, decreased age spots, and overall smoother complexion, attributed to autophagy. For my hair, I’ve been on minoxidil for about 4 years, due to thinning of my hair. My hair is becoming grayer at 52, but seems like it has become a little fuller on top. So, minoxidil combined with autophagy seems to be helping, although I’d like it if it were much fuller.

    Men with hair loss have low testosterone and insulin resistance. When testosterone is low so is Shbg. So there is more free T that can be converted into DHT. When cortisol is high the DHT relationship is exacerbated. When humans don't get enough carbs in their system they begin to shed as well but insulin resistance makes it hard to absorb glucose. Low T also means Low estrogen synthesis. This increases inflammation and oxidative stress causing you to deplete Superoxide dismutase and glutathione. Hence the pathway for cardiac dysfunction and many more. You can correct this by having a nutrient dense diet. Reverse your insulin resistant and maintain optimal body composition. Apples and blueberries are great fruit that helps with hair. As both proanthocyanin b 2 and anthocyanin have shown to at the moment ameliorate insulin resistant.

      Einstein's white hair was actually a sign of copper deficiency, as he died from an aneurysm (resulting from copper deficiency). Copper is essential for blood vessels to maintain strength and elasticity. An aneurysm occurs when part of an artery wall weakens, allowing it to abnormally balloon out or widen.
      Dr. Joel Wallach has discussed this. He mentions that decades ago half a crop of turkeys were lost to aneurysms, their feed was adjusted to include more copper, and that problem did not happen again. The turkeys that died also exhibited abnormal numbers of WHITE FEATHERS.
