I am experiencing minor hair loss (around my temples). Is caused by a lack of protein, an amino acid or something else? What foods should I eat to remedy this?

First things first, increase your total calorie intake. If your eating only raw foods, make sure you are not eating any raw soy products. Soy has to be cooked to denature a natural protein that will dramatically interefere with your total protein absorption (up to 80%). Lack of protien will induce many bad things in your body, least of all is hair loss.

How many grams of protein should I be taking in? I hear it is much less than popular belief.

The following foods might help:

MSM
Raw hemp protein powder
a green superfood
At least one pint of green smoothie a day, with different greens each day.

The supplements are available at the local health food store and at the Raw Food Store:

Thanks! Yes, that is me. I have really thick hair and haven't cut it in five years. lol I have been 100% raw for a while now, probably over a month now. Mainly fruits. I drink lemon juice right away in the morning. Then I eat melon 1 1/2 hours later. Then anythng from there, mainly monos. Like 3 oranges at noon. A pear at 4:00. Whatever I'm in the mood for. Then a salad with one leaf of Kale, Romaine lettuce and sprouts in the evening. Then about 1/4 or less cup of nuts or seeds around 7:00p.m. It works for me. I eat pretty simply, and some might find it boring. I still have all of my hair even after detox. smiling smiley

Wait, so hair loss can be a part of detoxing? I just got out of the shower to find more hair at the bottom of the tub than I would have liked to, but i'm noticing that I am losing it pretty evenly (no bald spots). My hair is thinning out (I have always had a really thick head of hair). Is this something that is normal for those going raw to experience?

Seems like hair loss is part of detox for some. I've eaten about an 80% raw diet for several months (the balance is fish, rice, steamed vegs). Right now I'm on day 13 of a 30 day juice fast and I've noticed no difference in my hair. Every other day I do take a tablespoon of extra virgin coconut oil because I admit to being a bit vain when it comes to the hair. It's very thick and to my waist and I like for it be strong and shiny....I've included a photo.

Thank you, I will try the coconut oil. So I can receive more specific help, I should post what I eat on a typical day. I'll be as specific to quantities as I can.

breakfast: 3 cups of green smoothie (2 big green leaves [various kinds], banana's, 2 dates, other fruit [apple, strawberries, plums] and 4tbs of hemp seed) I may put spiriulina in the smoothie as well

snack: one handful of almonds

lunch: A salad (iceberg lettuce, carrots, beans [cooked], brocoli, onions, red peppers and tomatoes dressed with a generous amount of olive oil and salsa) fruit (a small amount of pinapples and canteloups as well as a banana)

dinner: A sandwich (sprouted grain bread [cooked], peanut butter [cooked], 1 banana, 2tbs of hemp seed and a small amount of walnuts), a sweet potato [cooked]

snack: either an apple or rasins

could I be missing a crucial amino acid in my diet? The only grains I eat are sprouted grains.

Hi Innerview,

MSM is an essential mineral that is hard to find in foods.

Check out the book 'The MSM Miracle', your library should have it, or Amazon.com

Here is a good description:
[www.rawfood.com]

"MSM is a naturally-occuring form of dietary sulfur...

...Because of its collagen-building properties, MSM creates smooth skin, thick lustrous hair, and strong nails..."

I add MSM to my green smoothies. My hair started growing in much faster and thicker after using MSM for a couple weeks.

Since going raw, I've noticed my hair grows really fast, too! It's already past my butt! I noticed I don't have to wash it as much either.

I suppose hair loss could be due to detox. I went through some horrible, major detox since going mainly raw for close to 4 months now. The major detox started speeding up when I went 100% over 1 month ago, and I still didn't loose any hair and I feel like I'm over the detox now, but I guess some people may be different.

So far I have been drinking more water, stopped using salt on my food and have purchased coconut oil. My hair still seems more thinned out than it did before (actually I know it is since I have a pic. of me 6 months ago to compare to). I'm going to keep pluggin away with everyone's sugesstions. Will it take time for my hair to return to it's normal state? Thank you so much for your help so far.

From: Dr. Robert O. Young

A History of Hair

An Egyptian papyrus scroll dating back over 3000 years prescribes an
ointment for restoring lost hair consisting of equal parts of crocodile
fat and hippopotamus dung. The Egyptian Pharaoh's were never seen with
out a wig and the sons of Pharaoh wore their hair in a distinctive bun
on the right side of their head just behind the ear.

Remember the Biblical tale of Sampson who had the strength to destroy
the Philistines as long as his hair remained Delilah gave him the most
famous haircut in history that left him a 97 pound weakling.

Hippocrates recognized a connection between sexual organs and baldness.
His prescription for preventing hair loss was the application of cumin,
pigeon droppings, horseradish, and nettles to the scalp.

The Roman rulers were called "Caesar" which means "Head of Hair."

King Louie XV made elaborate wigs fashionable to cover his baldness.

Many of the signers of the Declaration of Independence covered their
baldness with wigs.

Today hair continues to be an important symbol of attitudes, culture,
religion and sex appeal. For a woman, it is her "Crowning Glory"! For a
man, it is, as it was to Julius Caesar, his wreath of honor, his symbol
of virile manhood!

The human skin (the largest organ) has more hair follicles per unit of
surface area than any other primate. People with black hair have
100,000 follicles present in the scalp - blondes 10% more and redheads 10%
less. You lose 100 hairs a day.
If hair is left uncut it will grow to 40 inches in length in the anagen
phase or growing phase.

According to Dr. Young, "hair loss is not a hair problem but a location
problem."

What is Hair?

Hair is composed of a protein called Keratin.

Human hair is classified into two groups: vellus and terminal hair.

Hair has a nerve fiber going to the bulb.

There is a separate, tiny muscle, called the erector pili, which
connects the underside of the skin to the hair shaft. When you are
frightened, cold or angry the muscle contracts and your hair stands on end. Each
time the erector pili contracts, it puts pressure on the sebaceous
gland, next to the hair shaft, which then secretes sebum to lubricate the
hair. An overactive sebaceous gland causes oily skin and hair.

Each hair, muscle and gland comprises a pilo-sebaceous unit.

The Long and Short of Hair Growth

Rapunzel let her hair down from the tower to let the prince climb up.
She had no idea that she was missing a growth factor that controls the
length of hair.
In 1994, the University of California, San Francisco revealed that the
presence of a growth factor - contrary to its name - limits the length
that hair will grow. It is called,
Fibroblast Growth Factor 5 and is a chemical messenger that controls
the growth of hair. When missing this factor the hair will not stop
growing and will eventually fall out. Fibroblast Growth Factor 5 is the
first chemical signal discovered for the hair cycle.

The Hair Growth Cycle

First, a hair follicle develops. Deep inside it lays a bud of
mesodermal tissue which causes the bud to divide and sprout a new hair.
Eventually, as expected it stops growing due to Fibroblast Growth Factor 5. The
follicle becomes quiescent and the hair falls ending the cycle to begin
again.

Hair consists of highly insoluble substance of protein-like keratin,
containing a fixed portion of the amino acids arginine, histidine, and
lysine but variable proportions of cystene. Hair is 15% keratin.

Hair is cylinder of impacted keratinized cells comprising three major
structures: the outside layer called the cuticle, the next layer the
cortex, and the central-most layer known as the medulla.

The Anatomy of Hair and its Follicles

The medulla contains melanin pigment granules and is present in only
thick terminal hair. It is the least important part of the hair as it
pertains to a hair product which nourishes or stimulates hair growth.

The cortex, the thickened part of the hair shaft, is a site at which
most of the hair changes of texture, porosity, brittleness, color and
thickness occurs.

The cuticle, consisting of flattened cells arranged like shingles on a
roof, maintains the integrity of the hair shaft. The overlapping is
extremely tight, preventing damage to the underlying cortex. When the
cuticle is intact, the scales are smooth, reflect light, and provide the
hair with a shiny, healthy look. This healthy appearance is a
manifestation of the hair's porosity, elasticity, and texture.

There Are 39 Forms of Baldness

The medical profession calls hair loss alopecia. Hair loss can be due
to genetics, systemic acidosis, excess of acidic hormones, drug side
effects, aging, chemotherapy and radiation, skin disorder or other
symptoms due to systemic acidosis that localizes at the weakest point of the
body.

The Six Main Types of Alopecia or Hair Loss

Alopecia areata - well-defined bald patches often round or oval. They
present themselves on the head, beard, and other hairy parts of the
body.

Alopecia universalis is complete hair loss on the entire body.

Patchy alopecia - hair loss develops on the parietal and occipital
regions of scalp.

Alopecia totalis - is complete hair loss on the scalp.

Alopecia disseminata - hair loss around the whole scalp or other parts
of the body.

Alopecia androgenetica - male and female pattern baldness.

Breakdown and Loss of the Hair

Anagen Phase - Ana in Greek means "growing up" gen indicates "Life."
During this phase the hair shaft is firmly embedded and a hair strand is
growing.

Catagen Phase - Cata in Greek means "growing down." The club structure
has formed as the outer hair root sheath collapses and withdraws up the
follicular sheath. The hair is breaking down.

Telogen Phase - Tele means in Greek "the End." The follicle is
shrinking the sheath retracts and trails in the dermal layer of the scalp. The
hair strand is ready to fall out.

Male Androgenic Alopecia or Male Pattern Baldness

66 % of all men in Westernized Countries experience hair thinning and
40% develop baldness.

Eight typical patterns of andro (hormone) genetic

Type I - before puberty
Type II - teenager
Type III - adulthood early stages of hair loss, spot balding at the
vertex
Type IV - VII - progressively more severe

What Causes the Incredible Shrinking Hair Loss

Blood circulation to the bulb of the hair pulls away due to excess
acidity from an inverted way of living, eating and thinking. Nerves
providing the electrical energy for blood differentiation also pull away from
the hair bulb due to poor blood circulation.
Without blood for dedifferentiation (the transformation of blood into
new hair cells) and nerves to provide the proper energy fields for
dedifferentiation and redifferentiation no knew hair follicles will grow and
the hair shrinks and falls out.

Theoretical Causes of Alopecia

1) Systemic acids that localize at the bulb of the hair follicle.

2) Increased biological transmutations of bacteria and yeast.

3) Mineral deficiency, especially zinc, magnesium and manganese that
are chelating or buffering metabolic acids.

4) Physical and emotional stress that increase acidity and biological
transformations.

5) Hormonal imbalance, especially the increase of the acidic hormone
testosterone.

Female Androgenic Alopecia or Female Pattern Baldness

1) 22% of the World's women have hair thinning and hair loss. Grade 1,
Grade 2 and Grade 3 hair loss can manifest at anytime after puberty.

2) Increased amounts of the acid testosterone come from eating acidic
meats.

3) Increased amounts of acids due to physical and emotional stress.

4) Increased amounts of bacteria and yeast due to increased amounts of
endogenous acids.

Hormones and Alopecia

Hair loss has been associated with to much testosterone. Testosterone
interacts with an enzyme 5-alpha reductase, which is concentrated in the
skin and genitals.
5-alpha reductase converts testosterone into another acid called
dihydrotetosterone (DHT). DHT has been associated with the male external
genital development, such as the formation of the penis, scrotum, and
prostate. In the scalp, each follicle reacts to the over-production of
DHT. Men and women in male or female pattern baldness have DHT-sensitive
follicles at the front and top of the head. Excess DHT is created
through diets that are high in carbohydrate and protein that increase
bacteria, yeast and the subsequent endogenous acids.

Genetics and Alopecia

Hair loss is a result of lifestyle triggers that can then activate a
variant gene to Fibroblast Growth Factor 5, called the Angora Gene. The
Angora Gene when activated causes the hair follicle to rapidly progress
to the Tologen Phase or end stage of the form and function of the hair
follicle. This gene is inherited from their Fathers and occasionally
from their Mothers.

The Russian Roulette Metaphor

The Angora gene is activated by lifestyle triggers such as physical and
emotional stress, chemicals from hair products, chemotherapy,
antibiotics, increased endogenous acids, increased microforms, and parasites,
just to name a few.

Solutions to Prevent Onset Baldness Due to DHT and other Acids

1) Stop the body's production of testosterone with castration?

2) Stop the increased production of testosterone becoming DHT causing
the hair follicle to shrink with an alkaline lifestyle and diet - the pH
Miracle Lifestyle and Diet.
Block the DHT before it gets to the follicles by diluting the blood
plasma of DHT with alkalizing fluids from green foods.

3) Strengthen the hair follicles so they are not sensitive to DHT with
green foods and green drinks, minerals that bind acids like DHT and/or
use shampoos and conditioners that strengthen the hair follicle and
keeps excess sebum from building up in and around the hair follicle due to
excess acidity.

4) Finally, support the white blood cells responsible for picking up
and clearing out broken cortex and matrix cells and hair fibers by
keeping the environment around the hair bulb alkalized and energized by
supporting the white blood cells with alkalizing shampoos and conditioners.

Solutions to Reverse Male and Female Alopecia Androgentica

The prevention and regeneration of new hair is determines by five
factors:

1) The quality of the blood from alkaline living, eating and thinking.

2) The quality of the alkaline context that surrounds the blood

3) The quality of the alkaline context that surrounds the hair bulb

4) The condition of circulation of blood going into the existing hair
bulb,

5) And the alkaline context of the scalp.

Acid, Yeast and Alopecia

Yeast ferments blood glucose causing an increase of acid. Acids are
cheated by cholesterol causing poor blood circulation to the bulb of the
follicular papilla.
Blood is needed to provide the anatomical elements in the production of
biological fibers known as hair. Acids breakdown blood, breakdown the
nerves going up into the follicular papilla that provides the energy
fields for the biological transformation of the blood into biological
fibers. Acids breakdown the capillaries that feed nutrients into the hair
bulb causing the hair to stop growing and fallout.

Solutions to Reverse Male and Female Alopecia Androgenetica

1) Alkalarian Lifestyle and Diet - pH Miracle Living
2) Increase Green foods and Green Drinks
3) Supplement extra vitamins and minerals, especially zinc that
chelates the acid DHT that causes hair shrinkage and Prostate gland
enlargement or inflammation.
4) Use stimulating and alkalizing shampoos, conditioners, and hair
tonics that clean the scalp naturally and remove cellular debris, sebum,
bacteria, yeast, mold and parasites.
5) Protect the hair shaft with good oils contained in an alkalizing
conditioner.
6) Clean and provide nutrients to the scalp and hair twice daily.

T-Cells and Thymosin

The lymphocytes job is to locate, collect and dump acids and morbid
microforms from the body. The T-lymphocyte migrates from the Thymus gland
is created out of the red blood cells. T-lymphocytes activate
B-lymphocytes that mediate morbid microforms or antigens and their associated
acids. A Thymus glandular extract can be massaged into the scalp in
shampoos, conditioners, hair tonics, hair thickeners and/or ingesting as a
nutritional supplement, to help in the regrowth of hair.

Research Indicates Thymus Microzymas Prevents and Regenerates Hair

2 Clinical studies in 1991 and 1992, at the Darmstadt City Hospital
Dermatology Department, enrolled 20 patients suffering from alopecia
areata totalis et universalis used thymus glandular extract shampoo and
conditioner for 24 months and this was the result:

1) 65% or 12 patients had new hair growth on the scalp and/or other
parts of the body.
2) 40% of these or 5 patients had complete remission of their alopecia.
3) Baldness went away within an average of sixteen months and as not
returned in any form.

9 Other Scientific Studies of Thymus

Confirmed b Dr. M. Hagedorn in a third published paper from his clinic
office at the Dermatological Department of the Municipal Hospital in
Darmstadt, Germany, had this to say, "It has been proven that hair loss
can be stopped and hair growth reactivated if the roots are still
intact. Clinical studies on patients who were losing hair caused by alopecia
androgentica showed the thymus extract treatment was successful in 94
percent of the women and 67 percent of the men. Therapeutic success
ratios increase with longer periods of treatment."

Therapeutic Successes Against Alopecia Androgenetica & Alopecia Areata

Research results by Dr. Moessler and Prof. Dr. Hageorn are as follows:

1) 51 patients with Alopecia androgenetica and 16 patients with
Alopecia areata were treated with Thymus extract over 12 months.
2) 67% of the men and 100% of the women with Alopecia androgenetica
benefited with new hair growth.
3) 85% with Alopecia areata resulted in partial or full regrowth of
scalp hair

Cytotoxic Hair Loss Study

The German Center Research in Heidelberg, Germany, Professor, Dr. Claus
O. Keohler, former Chief of the Department of Medical and Biological
Informatics did an
investigation on 251 cancer patients treated with cytotoxic agents and
used thymus extract as a means to prevent chemical baldness. These
were the results:

1) There was no hair loss for 68.5 percent of patients over age 60 and
58.9 percent for under age 60.

Dr. Young has been researching hair loss and hair regeneration for over
20 years. He has applied his alkaline lifestyle and diet and now his
newly released Head pHirst hair shampoo and Top pHinish hair conditioner
to clean and heal the scalp, regenerate new hair, preserve existing
hair and to keep new and existing hair healthy and strong.

The Reversal of Baldness has been a Personal Journey of over 30 Years
for Dr. Robert O. Young!

The reversal for male and/or female pattern baldness is not an event
but a process of months and even years of alkalizing and energizing the
body with:

1) An alkalizing lifestyle and diet
2) Alkalizing nutritional supplements
3) The pH Miracle Young pHorever Head pHirst Shampoo, and
4) The pH Miracle Young pHorever Top pHinsih Conditioner

Possible Mode of Action from the New pH Miracle Young pHoerever Head
pHirst Shampoo and Top pHinish Conditioner

Out of the increased efficiency of the white blood cells to chelate and
remove cellular morbid matter and acids and from the client's
absorption of the thymus extract, the follicles are stimulated to give rise to
tiny hairs, which eventually will grow into terminal hairs. The
follicles become excited into functioning again.
The main active ingredients in the pH Miracle Shampoo, Conditioner and
Hair Thickener are tiny short-chained peptides formulated with
vitamins, minerals and herbs which are highly penetrating into the integument
of the scalp, nourishing the hair follicle and root of the hair.

Some of the Major Incredible Ingredients in the First all Natural
Alkalizing pH Miracle Hair/Scalp Shampoo and Conditioner for Preventing and
Reversing Hair Loss called Head pHirst Shampoo and Top pHinish
Conditioner!

Deionized Water - To remove ions from (a solution) using an
ion-exchange process. Makes the shampoo easy to lather. De-ionization is the
process which removes the positive ions from water, thus decreasing its
acidity.

Soapbark - Cleanser (tree bark from a Chilean evergreen tree).

Lavender - Helps relax scalp and muscles.

Chamomile - (leaves of the English chamomile plant) historically used
for its soothing and calming properties. Accentuates natural highlights
and leaves a healthy sheen. Considered excellent for sensitive skin.
Chamomile has also been used topically to reduce inflammation of the
skin and good for irritated skin (soothing and healing).

Rosemary - (cooling sensation) A purifying and toning agent with
anti-microbial activity; believed to stimulate new hair growth. Rosemary is
good as a hair conditioner. Experience it's strong, clean and
refreshing scent. It has been used for centuries to promote healthy hair and
skin.

Burdock - Western herbalism considers burdock as a primary herb for
purifying the blood. Burdock is also helpful in alleviating soreness and
swelling caused by rheumatism and arthritis, as well as treating rashes
and skin irritations. (psoriasis)

Aloe Vera - (leaves of the aloe plant) historically known for its
remarkable healing and soothing properties. In fact legend has it that
Cleopatra massaged fresh aloe gel into her skin and hair every day to
preserve her beauty. Some also believed it prevented hair loss and rubbed
it into their scalps. Conditions, moisturizes and softens dry hair and
scalp as it calms and refreshes.

Wheat Germ - Wheat germ oil comes from the heart of the wheat berry,
the embryo of the new plant. This oil is unique among dietary
supplements and foods in that is unusually rich (65% by weight) in the most
biologically active forms of vitamin E. Vitamin E acts as an inhibitor of
oxidation processes in body tissues. It protects unsaturated fats in
the body from oxidation by peroxides and other acids. In fact, the
tocopherols are used commercially as anti-acids to retard the spoiling of
fats, especially other vegetable oils.

Vitamin A - skin healer, acts as an anti-acid.

Allantoin - Promotes wound healing, speeds up cell regeneration, and
has a keratolytic (skin-softening) effect. Water soluble crystal known
for its ability to help heal wounds and skin ulcers and to stimulate the
growth of healthy tissue. A conditioning humectant that increases the
water binding capacity of proteins. Naturally soothes scalp
irritations. It is said to clean away necrotic tissue, hastening the growth,
healing epitheliztions may take place. Allantoin has been also termed a
counter irritant that helps alleviate the untoward skin-irritation
effects of certain cosmetic ingredients such as shampoo.

Inositol - Protects against hair loss and helps maintain healthy hair.
Inositol functions very closely with another B-complex vitamin,
choline. Because it is not essential in the human diet, it cannot be
considered a vitamin. It is a fundamental ingredient of cell membranes and is
necessary for proper nerve, brain, and muscle function. Inositol is
lipotropic, and works in conjunction with folacin, Vitamins B-6 and B-12,
choline, betaine and methinonine to prevent the accumulation of fats in
the liver. *(good to take internally)

Biotin - A coenzyme, essential for the normal metabolism of fats and
protein. It maintains healthy skin and is especially good for the health
of hair follicles. The best natural sources are nuts, fruits, brewer's
yeast and unpolished rice. This vitamin will rejuvenate hair follicles
when taken by mouth or rubbed directly on the skin in a cream base. It
may even regrow a few hairs, which have gone into early retirement.
Hair will stand up straighter and recover a healthy sheen. *(good to
take internally)

Folic Acid - Health starts with the individual cells of our body. If
our cells are healthy so are we. Healthy cells, in turn, depend on the
continued, faultless replication of our DNA. DNA can be seriously
damaged through attacks by free radicals so an adequate antioxidant status
is essential to cell health. It is now becoming clear though that
antioxidants alone are not enough to protect our DNA; more and more
research points to the B- vitamin folic acid as being equally or perhaps even
more important in ensuring proper DNA replication. Folic acid (folinic
acid, folacin, pteroylglutamic acid) was first isolated from spinach
leaves (its name derives from the Latin folium meaning "leaf"winking smiley in 1964
and early on was found to be essential in the prevention of anemia in
animals. Later it was discovered that ensuring that mothers had adequate
folic acid levels could prevent neural tube defects in human babies.
*(good to take internally) Eat Lots of Spinach.

Germaben Oil - a natural preservative that contains grapeseed extract

Colloidal Silver - (Used as a natural preservative) all natural mineral
supplement colloidal silver.

* Unparalleled germ fighter, transforms bacteria, fungus and viral
outfections.
* True colloidal silver. Colloid means silver particles in water.
* No potentially dangerous protein additives.
* Made using the highest purity, sterile reagent grade deionized water.
* 0.001-0.005 microns non-toxic (high voltage process, gives longer
shelf life)
* 15ppm (ideal size of silver particles)

Yucca - Natural soap for hair and body and helps prevent baldness.

Avocado Oil - High in proteins, amino acids and vitamins A, D, and E.
It is very moisturizing and healing. A very rich, somewhat waxy oil.
Regenerates and softens skin tissue. Ideal for extremely dry and
sensitive skin. Limited shelf life. Protects hair against environmental
stress. In ancient times, avocados were thought to stimulate hair and cell
growth. Avocados contain high levels of Vitamins B2, D, A, E, K and
potassium which makes them an excellent source of nutrients. Also known
for its revitalizing and healing properties.

Glycerine - A natural emollient and humectant derived from vegetable
oils. A valuable skin nourishing ingredient in quality soaps and
lotions. This is often removed by the soap industry and sold as a valuable
bi-product. Handmade soaps retain all its glycerin with additional
glycerin often used in hand-milled soaps for greater nourishing properties.

Cellulose Gum - (thickener) significantly enhances quality by acting as
a thickener and stabilizer, and by controlling crystallization,
moisture retention.

Panthenol - Helps thicken each hair shaft naturally with
vegetable-source protein. Member of the Vitamin B complex family used as a hair
thickener and conditioning agent. During oxidation, it is converted to
Vitamin B - 5 (pantheonic acid).

Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein - (wheat) Increases hair's flexibility and
elasticity. Holds water in the hair shaft at increased levels. Builds
body while it moisturizes and conditions dry and brittle hair. Foam
builder and anti-irritant. Naturally derived from wheat protein.
Improves hair shine, volume, manageability, eliminates split ends, builds
protective & moisturizing film on skin.

Hydrolyzed human hair protein - Real human hair broken down into small
molecules in weight and size (powder form) they take the actual protein
from the hair.
Vitamin E - Used for its healing and anti-oxidant properties.
Conditions, moisturizes and protects. Vitamin E is a great source of vitamin
for many different reasons including heart protection, prevents cancer,
immunity booster, brain preserver, etc. It has also been known to help
in the aid of wound healing, internally and externally speaking of the
body. It is thought of as being an anti agent nutrient and a lot more.
Vitamin E is the main antioxidant that protects all cells from damage,
so its one of the most important nutrient supplements you can take to
keep your whole body healthy and protected against disease.

Keratin Protein - All protein, vegetable source, and is made form a
combination of amino acids - your hair and your skin is really just
billions of these tiny little amino acid all chained together in a special
way. When your hair becomes damaged by bleaching, coloring, perming or
styling abuse, some of these amino acids get stripped away. To make the
hair look healthier and be stronger you have to replace those amino
acids.

Olive Oil - A good moisturizing oil with healing properties. It
attracts external moisture, holds moisture close to skin and forms a
breathable film to prevent loss of internal moisture. Skin can continue to
sweat, releasing sebum and shed dry skin cells.

Sesame Oil - Contains proteins and high in vitamin E. It is ideal for
