How Stress Over Staying Thin Leaves 1 in 3 Women With Hair Loss.
Daily Mail 7th December 2009
Why Modern Life and Diets Are Making Hair Loss Worse
Trichologist Sara G Allison explained:
“We are all leading more emotionally stressful lives and are more nutritionally deficient than previous generations. The pressure on women to stay thin often means that they simply don’t eat enough to get all the nutrients or they are not eating the right foods. Hair is essentially the least important tissue of your body; therefore, your hair only receives nutrients if there are any remaining in the body after your vital organs have taken what they need.”
A Supplement for Hair Growth
Sara G Allison recommends taking the food supplement Hair Today More Tomorrow, M&O’s, to nourish hair and support growth.
Cultural and Medical Causes of Hair Loss
Dr Linda Papadopoulos, a psychologist, said:
“In Western culture, hair is bound up in notions of femininity, youth and sexual attractiveness. Because a woman’s hair plays a big part in value judgments made about youth and attractiveness, the experience of thinning hair is bound to be anxiety-provoking.”
Some medical causes of hair loss include chemotherapy, pregnancy, and menopause. Although hair often grows back after pregnancy and menopause, certain conditions, like alopecia, cause permanent loss because the immune system attacks hair follicles.
