Is it possible?

Hi,

I usually just read and learn from this forum, but this strange thing is happening with me and I thought I ask.
Seemingly if I cheat and start to eat cooked food, my hair starts to fall in an alarming rate.
It happened 3-4 times, that is how many times I fell off the wagon. And as soon as I eat raw again, even if some hair still comes out, the quantity is nowhere near to the hair loss during cooked food consumption. Although I experience this thing I still cannot believe it.

Actually as I think of it now, I used to loose many more hair than average since my teen years. I always looked for an explanation. Now I possibly have it, but I don`t know....
Did anyone experience similar thing?

I've had hair loss in the past when I got off
Wheatgrass Juice.
You might add some green juice to your diet, and notice
if it makes a difference. It did for me.
The Hair is a reflection of overall Health.
I'm surprised your hair loss comes-and-goes so quickly
with Cooked and Raw......WY

Thanks for the reply.
I am a huge green smoothie fan for about two years.
Yes, it`s about a week maybe or a little bit more on only raw again, and then I notice the difference.

I've been doing a little look up on hair loss, and it seems that vitamins and nutrients can play a big role in what your head looks like. Perhaps when you ate cooked food, (obviously a different type of meal -- what did you eat that was cooked?) it contained less vitamins and minerals then the raw meals that you eat - or a different variety that effect your noggin and hair cells. When WY stopped eating the green juice, it was because (most likely) of the supernutrients it has - like biotin, which is an enormous contributer to preventing the graying of hair and growth. smiling smiley So i would go on nutridiary or something and see what vitamins you're getting or perhaps even wikipedia and look up the amount per serving of each vitamin/mineral and see how this compares to the effects of them to your hair growth when you eat them.

Hope you can come to consensus.
