Author: John FarikaniMore than just losing hair, balding causes a person to lose self confidence as well. Whether male, female, young or old, issues of thinning hair, receding hairlines and bald spots are often sensitive issues. So, before you lose your self esteem, stop hair loss now. There are different reasons why people start losing hair. To properly address the problem of thinning hair, it is important that we understand what causes it. One reason that is usually overlooked is poor nutrition. Our hair follicles have receptors which are like the roots of trees. They are responsible for getting the nutrients from our body. Therefore, if we do not healthy, there is no reason for us to expect healthy hair at all. The hair strands become thinner and brittle over time until hair growth stops altogether.

If this has happened more than once we may have developed a bit of a starvation fear. The embarrassing thing about this is that we really may find ourselves eating far more than everyone else present.Hopefully situations like these are far and few between. Nevertheless, just a few may have a lasting effect on some of us. They may actually be responsible for us not being able to return to a more normal set of eating patterns once the economic stuation is corrected.The three meals per day from the four food groups plan is what most would consider to be normal. These are individual meals spaced appropriately throughout the day to maintain energy levels and facilitate tissue repair. Most of us know that we need these and do not ask many questions about them unless they become interrupted. Then, the question of...more
