It is commonly believed that genetics and aging are the main culprits behind hair loss. However, it turns out that incorrect dietary habits can also contribute to this hair crisis: receding hairlines and thinning hair! The nutrients we consume through our diet flow through the bloodstream to reach the hair, scalp, and follicles, influencing hair growth. To promote healthy hair, it is advisable to limit the consumption of the following five foods.

1. High-Sugar Foods

Consuming high amounts of sugar leads to an increase in blood glucose levels, promoting inflammation. It also hampers blood circulation, preventing effective nutrient delivery to the scalp. Additionally, the body produces a significant amount of the acidic substance dihydrotestosterone (DHT) during sugar metabolism. Elevated DHT levels disrupt the scalp's oil-water balance, stimulate excessive sebum production, and result in increased hair shedding.

2. Dairy Products

Full-fat dairy products such as cheese, yogurt, and milk contain a significant amount of fat. Consuming these can lead to weight gain and an increase in male hormones, which are converted into DHT. DHT, in turn, attacks the hair follicles on the scalp, shortening the hair growth cycle. Additionally, dairy products have a higher acidity level, which can intensify immune responses in the body, leading to allergic reactions, inflammation, or follicle damage.

3. High-Fat Foods

Fried foods contain a significant amount of omega-6 fatty acids, which can interfere with the hair's growth signals. This disruption prevents the follicles from receiving the necessary instructions for renewal, leading to an extended resting phase and eventual hair loss. Moreover, excessive oil consumption can stimulate increased sebum production on the scalp, resulting in a greasy sensation. If the subcutaneous fat layer thickens over time, the follicles can become clogged with oil, impeding hair growth.

4. Alcohol

When the body metabolizes alcohol, it depletes vital amino acids such as vitamins, cysteine, and methionine, which play a crucial role in hair growth and protection. This results in a reduced supply of nutrients to the hair. Additionally, alcohol hinders the absorption of essential nutrients like protein, zinc, and copper, accelerating hair loss.

5. Deep-sea Fish

Deep-sea fish such as salmon, swordfish, cod, and tuna, being at the top of the food chain, tend to have higher levels of mercury, the most potent toxin among heavy metals. Mercury can interfere with the absorption of proteins and zinc, damage body cells, and hinder cell regeneration. If consuming these fish, it is advisable to remove the skin and ensure thorough cooking to minimize mercury content.

It is normal to lose up to 100 strands of hair per day. However, if you are experiencing hair loss beyond this amount or notice that the fallen hair consists mainly of shorter or finer strands, it may be time to consider hair restoration treatments. These treatments can help improve hair loss concerns and promote regrowth.
