Hair Loss is a Symptom of Serious Imbalances

Losing your hair can feel as if your body has betrayed you and you’ve completely lost control.

Seeing your hair fall out in clumps makes you feel less attractive. It completely destroys your confidence and your identity.

It affects every area of your life.

That's why I take a full inventory of the whole body including a nutritional and lifestyle plan designed to improve your health as well as your hair.

Where and how do you start to address this?

Typically we blame our genetics or hormones such as DHT, however, the truth is there are over 50 causes of hair loss. When you understand that hair loss is a symptom of a more serious problem, you can get out your magnifying glass to inspect your everyday habits, which have created your situation.

Simply put: something is out of balance in your body.

By the end of this guide, you will have a better idea of your type of hair loss and why you want to address it ASAP. Keep reading!

You May Have One or More of These Underlying Causes

I’ve been in your shoes and I want to rin alarm bell on this.

If you’ve noticed hair loss for a while no do NOT ignore it.

Why?

With hair loss, the condition can worsen through hair shedding.

The more shedding, the faster miniaturization CAN take place. Hair follicles can become very tiny—they call it miniaturization—and even scar, which means it’s too late to reverse the damage.

This makes hair regrowth nearly impossible.

Confused About Hair Loss?

Scalp Hair Follicles: The Forgotten Organ

If nutrients, including macro and micronutrients, are not absorbing and/or the body is unhealthy or unbalanced, hair loss is inevitable.

Exhibit very high cellular turnover

Demand lots of energy

If you want healthy, shiny hair, look at how well your gut is functioning. I'm sure you've heard the saying, "Beauty is skin deep," and it’s true. It has a lot to do with the right balance of bacteria, yeast, and other microbes in your gut. Your digestive system not only absorbs nutrients but also eliminates toxins to maintain your overall health while making your hair shine.

When the gut microbiome is out of balance and harmful bacteria are allowed to flourish, problems can show up in the scalp and hair in the form of hair loss, inflammation, itchy or oily scalp, rashes, and dandruff. The key to ensuring healthy hair is complex. And it's NOT all about nutrition!

To stop hair loss first, it’s necessary to identify hair loss type(s) to determine root causes to create correct solutions…

Factors That Create Imbalances in the Gut

There are several reasons for an imbalance in gut flora:

Improper food & beverage choice

Toxins, mold & heavy metals

Candida, an overgrown fungus

Viruses, post-viruses

Food allergies or sensitivities

Most medications

Parasites & bad bacteria

Insomnia and sleeping disorders

Unmanaged stress

DoYouKnow...

Thegut interactswith theENTIREbody!

Whenever good bacteria is overwhelmed by bad bacteria, these bad bacteria can pass through the bloodstream, causing inflammation and certain health disorders hinting towards an imbalanced gut flora. An imbalanced gut flora can cause digestive issues, HAIR LOSS, irritable bowel syndrome, mental disorders, autoimmune diseases, and obesity. You must lower stress, reduce antibiotic use, and eat a balanced nutritious diet to help maintain gut flora's health.

Resistance Disrupters Affect the Hair & Gut

Chart Source: Cell Wellbeing

Many imbalances in our hair can be caused by mold, bacteria, fungus, and viruses. Keratinized tissue is the top target protein invaded. Strengthening our defense system is one of the things we can do to help our body fight these foreign invaders.

Types of Resistance Disruptors

Mold: disrupts hormones and immune system regulation causing inflammation

Overgrown Fungus or Bacteria: inhibits detoxification & cellular communication

Parasites: are nutrient pirates causing systemic havoc, inflammation, and more

Support for Resistance

Garlic Ginger

Pineapple Onions

Coconut Oil

Pumpkin Seeds

The 5R HealthyHairFix™ Framework

These are the 5 Steps our clients go through with successful results. © 2023 All rights reserved. julieolson.com

1st Phase = REMOVE Important

1R Phase is individualized depending on your history and what stressors YOU need to REMOVE

THE HAIR-GUT AXIS

One of the primary regulators in the hair-gut axis is the immune system and 80% of it actually lives in the gut. It regulates inflammation and how the gut microbiota communicates with the scalp and hair follicles. In addition, if the intestinal barrier is compromised, it can directly impact hair growth, as is the case with intestinal permeability (known as leaky gut).

If there is an impaired intestinal barrier, molecules from the gut can enter the bloodstream, accumulate in the scalp, and disrupt the hair follicle-scalp microbiome. Hair thinning often follows digestive disorders, and the gut microbiome plays a role in the development of numerous inflammatory hair loss conditions.

© 2023 All rights reserved. julieolson.com

1st Phase = REMOVE

As the scalp-hair follicles and gut are interconnected, their axis also influences key functions such as:

Metabolism

Bacterial balance (bad can crowd out the good)

Blood sugar levels

Inflammation

Stress levels

Balanced homeostasis

Mood regulation

As you can see, the hair-gut axis influences overall health, not just hair!

Healthy hair growth is dependent on a healthy body.

Remove or Balance Environmental Toxin Exposures

One of the biggest challenges since the industrial revolution is daily exposure to toxins. While our bodies have a system to rid the body of toxins the system has become inundated with chemical exposures in our foods, air, water, personal care products, radiation, and the list goes on and on!

These exposures have a dramatic effect on things such as hair growth. Identifying, and removing, the toxic burden on our bodies is a critical step in supporting the regrowth of healthy hair!

Importance of Amino Acids for Hair Growth

Amino acids are building blocks for not only hair but for every metabolic process in our bodies. Without sufficient amino acids our bodies cannot detox properly, produce adequate hormones, have a healthy immune response, or provide adequate energy to get through our day!

Making sure we are getting enough amino acids is a VERY important step to restoring hair.

Top Amino Acids for Healthy Hair

Alanine Histidine

Cysteine

A few ways Amino Acids benefit Hair:

Arginine: important for growth, hair thickness, repair and UV protection

Cysteine: important for detoxification

Lysine: important for collagen production in combination with zinc

Amino Acid food sources

Meat

Poultry

Eggs

Green Veggies

Nuts & Seeds

Seafood

Lentils

Onions

Garlic Peppers

© 2023 All rights reserved. julieolson.com
Citrulline Arginine Taurine

Top Foods that Hurt Hair Growth

Food allergens & sensitivities

Stay away from all hydrogenated vegetable oils, i.e.canola, corn, sunflower and soybean oil.

Sugar

Disrupts hormones, immune system dysfunction, can cause fatigue, leaky gut , hair loss and even cancer.

Top food allergens include wheat (gluten), dairy, corn, soy, shellfish, preservatives, as well as food additives.

Synthetic Trans fatty acids

Sugar imbalances hormones and causes inflammation, all leading to hair loss.

Artificial Sweeneners, Flavors & Colorings

Top 12 Healthy Hair Nutrients And

Why They Are Needed

Protein-Hairfibersare mainlyprotein,therefore adequateandquality dietaryproteinintake andabsorptionare essentialforstrong, healthyhair

Vitamin D - plays a role in stimulating new and old hair follicles. When there isn't enough vitamin D in your system, new hair growth can be stunted.

Vitamin A - helps make the sebum that conditions your scalp, which is essential for healthy hair growth. It can also stimulate the growth of hair follicle stem cells.

Niacin - the flushing type, dilates the capillaries and also irradiates the buildup of calcium and DHT that can otherwise greatly inhibit hair follicle growth

Iron - a deficiency or surplus negatively affects the normal cycle of hair growth and can lead to excessive shedding of hair. To determine your iron levels & saturation - get tested.

Essential Fatty Acids - are linked to hair growth due to the proliferation of hair follicle cells. Deficiencies may cause hair loss and lightening of hair color

Selenium - aids in the formation of hair follicles and protection against damage

Saw Palmetto - helps block 5-alpha-reductase, an enzyme that converts testosterone to DHT.

Biotin - deficiencies can lead to dry, brittle hair that’s more prone to thinning

Manganese – deficiencies can lead to slow hair growth.

Zinc - is involved in tissue growth and repair including hair

Vitamin E - helps reduce the breakdown of follicles, by providing moisture that soothes oil glands
