What you need to do to prevent hair loss: advice from doctors.
Hair loss is inevitable with age. Relentless statistics show that most often this problem affects men. However, women suffer no less from this trouble. We tell you what can cause hair loss and how to deal with it.
Improper hair care
Surely everyone knows that due to the wrong shampoo or tightly braided hair, hair can fall out more often. Also, this problem cannot be avoided if you use a hair dryer or hair straightener.
To save the situation, consult your hairdresser and choose the right products for washing your hair. Also, if the problem already exists, you should change your hairstyle to a voluminous one. You can use foams and mousses to give your curls the desired volume.
Excessive consumption of fatty foods
Fatty foods are a recipe for high cholesterol and excess weight gain. Doctors also warn against eating fatty, overcooked foods because this leads to hair loss. This is especially true for sausages, bacon, various smoked meats and ham.
There is a natural cycle of hair growth – some hair falls out and new ones grow instead. But too much fat in the body blocks new hair growth and causes hair loss. However, there are polyunsaturated fats found in fish, avocados, seeds and nuts, which can strengthen the roots of curls and accelerate their growth. Therefore, it is important after 50 years to eat properly and balanced, so that all the necessary vitamins and microelements are present in the food.
Can diet cause hair loss?
Yes, because those who restrict themselves in food sometimes do so without following the rules of healthy eating. Hair then begins to fall out because the body does not have enough protein to produce collagen.
Severely restricting the number of calories causes the body to save energy and stop spending it on growing new hair. In this case, if you are on a diet, you need to eat enough protein. Then the body will have enough building material for the appearance and growth of new hair.
After 50 years, it is better to eat lean protein foods and make sure that you have enough protein in your diet. Then you will not have problems with hair loss or baldness.
