• The role of stress in HAIR LOSS
  The large role of stress in HAIR LOSS , especially under the current situation
  Hair follicles respond to stress and secrete cortisone hormone A lot of people have been loosing excessive hair during lock down and this is happening due stress at conscious and subconscious levels Also Vit D3 deficiencies from remaining indoors, Raised residual blood glucose from lack of activity. Stress causes hair through Substance P and ROS Requirements of antioxidants and nutrients are raised during stress
• A proper amino acid combination is more effective than whey protein for regular body toning exercise. Along with these amino acids you need all essential micro nutrients to provide a balanced benefit. Body building supplements take a toll on all the body systems. Consider these only if you are into competition bodybuilding. OR else selective balanced micro nutrients are the best.
• Exercise causes wear & tear of the cells. Even if you are doing only cardio you need to provide for repair & restoration. Your cells need to be healthy and well charged to deliver the best benefit of the cardio exercise. You still need the a low dose balanced level of all nutrients which is supplied synergistically in the kit.
• Gym goers are increasing the wear & tear of their cells and trying to compensate it with unplanned excess intake of proteins, vitamins, minerals which do not go well with each other. Excess nutrients cannot be utilized all at a time. The nutruients overload the cells, create dumping & wastage. Create toxic overload of urea nitrogenous waste on liver & kidneys, leading to hair loss. A well planned synergistic program achieves better efficiency with regulated dosage without overdose or wastage.
• Biological value of pure whey protein is best for gym goers. Avoid body building complex as these contain undisclosed steroids and aspartic acid which cause hormonal imbalance.
• Omega 3 is anti inflammatory it helps sore muscles and it also helps in gaining muscle bulk. However excess Omega 3 causes lipid peroxidation, creates ROS which defeat the purpose. Low dose well planned use of Omega 3 with synergistic micro nutrients is recommended.
• DHT is an opportunistic intruder attacking only the weaker cells ....if we provide nutrition to support the cells and strengthen the follicles....the hair can then fight all causes including DHT
