Today's young people, deeply affected by hair loss, baldness, frequent hair loss for everyone, is a very bad thing. Especially young men or young girls are very worried about such problems. Hair loses luster, become dry, easy to break, bifurcate, what are these symptoms? What are the health problems? Perm, dyeing and hairdressing can cause brittle and dry hair. What diseases should be avoided?
Hair loss or disease
1. Anemia
Iron is needed to help form red blood cells that deliver oxygen throughout the body. Iron deficiency will lead to anemia, red blood cells will be reduced, the amount of blood oxygen obtained by the scalp will also decrease, and the hair follicles will be in a "hungry" state, which will eventually lead to the hair falling off slowly and the scalp will increasingly appear. Experts say iron supplementation can help improve anemia symptoms. Lack of vitamin C, intake of caffeine or alcoholic beverages are not conducive to iron absorption. It is recommended to drink fruit juice and eat food rich in iron, which can restore the growth of hair.
2. Eating disorders
Reducing food intake will lead to the reduction of scalp blood flow, which will affect the normal growth of hair, and even lead to hair loss of luster or even shedding. Experts say hair loss is rarely permanent, but maintaining a balanced diet and eating more protein is critical to prevent hair loss. Hair is made up of protein. When the hair follicle protein is at the lowest level, it is particularly important to eat more protein (especially breakfast). In addition, the diet should be rich in vitamins (especially B vitamins), zinc and important fatty acids.
3. Polycystic ovary syndrome
Women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is caused by excessive androgen, and the patient's forehead and head will have hair thinning symptoms. Most of this occurs in patients with a family history of alopecia. Experts say hair falls off the head, but hair on the face and body can grow wildly. Drugs that reduce androgen levels and scalp massages that promote blood flow can help the patient's hair grow back.
4. Thyroid diseases
The first symptom of thyroid dysfunction is hair loss. Too much or too little thyroid hormone will affect metabolism and normal hair growth. As all hair follicles are affected, hair loss is not a local phenomenon. Experts say drugs and other treatments can help ease the condition. In order to restore the hair as before, it is best to eat more protein and do head massage every morning.
5. Stress syndrome
Pressure can lead to premature HUAFA. When the pressure is high, the release of multiple hormones will affect the absorption of B vitamins and affect the hair pigmentation. Stress syndrome can lead to alopecia - the immune system mistakenly attacks scalp cells, causing massive hair loss. Psychological relaxation and taking compound vitamin B can improve the problem of early white hair.
6. Neurogenic alopecia
When mental pressure is too high, blood heat toxin accumulation, often appear alopecia increase. Under the effect of mental pressure, the human hair erector muscle contraction, hair upright, autonomic nerve or central nervous function disorder, hair follicle papilla changes and malnutrition, which lead to hair growth function inhibition, hair into the resting period and hair loss.
7. Excessive weight loss
Many women will have the behavior of losing weight, because the main component of hair is a protein called fish prion, which is composed of protein and trace elements such as copper, iron and zinc. If you lose weight excessively on a diet, these nutrients will be insufficient, and the hair will fall off due to malnutrition. Therefore, we must treat hair loss in time when we have hair loss.
8. Environmental pollution
Human environment is deteriorating day by day. Air pollution and water pollution make people absorb a lot of toxic substances, destroy endocrine system and immune system, destroy hair health and cause hair loss.
Six best ways to prevent hair loss
1. It's important to eat properly. For people with hair loss, it is very important to supplement the following foods reasonably.
- Add iron. People who often lose their hair often lack iron. Iron rich foods are soybeans, black beans, eggs, hairtail fish, shrimp, cooked peanuts, spinach, carp, bananas, carrots, potatoes and so on.
- Supplement plant protein. Dry hair, split hair, you can eat more soybean, black sesame, corn and other food.
- Eat more fresh vegetables and fruits with alkaline substances. One of the factors of hair loss and hair yellowing is that there are acid toxins in the blood. The reason is that physical and mental fatigue, long-term overeating of pure sugar and fat food, so that the body metabolism process produces acid toxins. Liver, meat, onions and other food acidic substances easy to cause blood acid toxin too much, so eat less.
- Supplement iodine. The luster of hair is related to the function of thyroid gland. Iodine supplement can enhance the secretory function of thyroid gland, which is beneficial to hair bodybuilding. Can eat kelp, laver, oyster and other food.
- Supplement vitamin E. Vitamin E can resist hair aging, promote cell division and make hair grow. Can eat more fresh lettuce, cabbage, black sesame and so on.
2. Exercise properly to ensure sleep. Exercise is conducive to relieving stress and improving self immunity. Adequate sleep can promote the normal metabolism of skin and hair, and the metabolic period mainly occurs at night, especially between 10:00 p.m. and 2:00 a.m. during this period of time, adequate sleep can make hair metabolism normal. Conversely, hair loss will occur if the metabolism and nutrition of hair lose balance. Suggestion: try to sleep no less than 6 hours a day and form the habit of regular sleep.
3. Keep an optimistic attitude. Modern people's work pressure, learning tension, excessive use of the brain, easy joy easy sad, these often cause hair loss. Excessive use of the brain, or often heavy, bored, or encountered something, the spirit is too nervous, so that the brain has been greatly stimulated, and sometimes affect the supply and growth of hair nutrition. Because all the activities of the human body belong to the brain tube. When the brain is stimulated, the activities are disordered and cannot function normally. It is bound to stimulate the nutrition of the body and cause hair loss. Therefore, it is suggested that we should maintain an optimistic and peaceful attitude in their daily work and study. We should not be excited when things happen, and work and study should be combined with work and rest.
4. Try to avoid environmental damage to your hair. Strong light, dirty air, chemical toxins, hair dyeing, etc. can cause great damage to hair, damage the growth environment of hair follicles, thus leading to hair loss, so try to avoid.
5. Wash and comb your hair frequently. Combing your hair 100 times in the morning and evening can stimulate the scalp and improve the ventilation between the hair. As the scalp is prone to sweating dirty place, frequent washing and combing hair can help prevent the occurrence of baldness and dandruff.
6. Have confidence in the treatment of alopecia and keep a positive attitude. With the development of science and technology, some advanced methods to treat alopecia have been put into practical application, and have achieved surprising results. I believe that with the further understanding of hair loss pathology, human beings will finally be able to completely overcome the global problem of alopecia!
