High levels of cortisol, as in stress, deplete copper because cortisol uses a lot of copper enzymes. So in other words, more stress equals more demand for copper equals more loss of copper. And when you run out of copper and you don't have enough enzyme, that enzyme is called tyrosinase to make this melanin to keep your natural color in your hair, things start to go gray. So how does this apply to you? Well, stress. You probably even experience the more stress that you have, the more gray hairs you might find on your head. So of course the solution is to do whatever you can to reduce stress, but in the meantime as you're doing that there's other things you can do to increase copper like eat more foods higher in copper.

Many people are getting gray hair just way too early. Today, two really important things to prevent premature graying. It's not all genetics; genetics do play a part, but there's also something called epigenetics, are things that you can do which are above your genes. One is the actual pigment in the hair that gives you the coloring and the enzymes to allow that pigment to occur are dependent on a trace mineral called copper. If you are deficient in copper, you might have a tendency to get gray hair prematurely. High levels of cortisol, as in stress, deplete copper because cortisol uses a lot of copper enzymes. So in other words, more stress equals more demand for copper equals more loss of copper. And when you run out of copper and you don't have enough enzyme, that enzyme is called tyrosinase to make this melanin to keep your natural color in your hair, things start to go gray. So the solution is to reduce stress but in the meantime increase copper from foods; I don't necessarily recommend taking a copper supplement by itself. I'd recommend that you try to get it from the foods

DHT, a potent form of testosterone, is created via the five alpha reductase enzyme. Excess DHT can cause androgenetic alopecia, or pattern hair loss, in both males and females. Pharmaceutical drugs can inhibit this enzyme, but they have side effects. Onion juice is a natural inhibitor. Dilute onion juice in water at a fifty-fifty ratio, rub it into the scalp, let it set for fifteen minutes, then wash it out.

Restricted blood flow is a core element of most types of hair loss. When blood flow is restricted, the body cannot flush out normal cellular waste and inflammatory products. This waste initiates inflammatory cascades and builds up over time. Minoxidil increases blood flow, which helps to flush out these elements. The core method of action of minoxidil is to increase blood flow in the scalp, which helps to remove the buildup of DHT and other waste products.

Your nutritional status plays a huge role in your whole body health and oftentimes hair loss is a symptom of poor nutrition. So here are five nutrients that support healthy hair. First up is vitamin a, which helps the scalp produce sebum, which moisturizes your hair, thus keeping your hair healthy and shiny looking. Next up are b complex vitamins, which help to create red blood cells, carry oxygen and nutrients to the scalp to the hair follicles. Vitamin C is number four, and this is the all important antioxidant, the most widely used antioxidant in the entire body protecting your body from oxidative stress. And lastly, vitamin d, which helps to create new hair follicles. This is one that's harder to get from your diet, so it's important to supplement with vitamin D and also get sunshine on your skin so your body makes vitamin D.

DHT is dihydrotestosterone. So it's literally a single molecule different than testosterone. So it's, basically testosterone with an extra hydrogen molecule. Molecule and the difference is is that there are hormone receptors inside your body that actually sort of open up different mechanisms within your body. If you have the hormone DHT and you would actually have to have a very specific sort of lock for that key to open up meaning that if you have DHT then ultimately it doesn't mean that you're necessarily going to lose hair because of it you actually have to have the gene that will then create the sensitivity to the DHT.

First thing I do in the morning every day is I wear this red light therapy cap. It increases blood flow and also stimulates hair follicle activity. The next thing I do is I apply this topical to my scalp on a daily basis. You've probably heard of it, of topicals like Rogaine and Minoxidil five percent. We added a bunch of other goodies to our topical formulation. And the one thing we do to enhance the benefits of the topicals, this and others, is we do microneedling. Then also, there's just some basic stuff like being careful with your hair, you know, not combing too hard, not pulling really hard at the follicles. It's delicate, so just being mindful about that.

- Onion actually increases this enzyme called catalase, which actually gets rid of hydrogen peroxide, that thing that makes your hair gray. - Secondly, onions are high in sulfur, which supports the protein in hair called keratin. - In a study from 02/2002, they found people with alopecia that applied onion juice on their hair showed significant regrowth in their hair. - Just from using onion juice for four weeks, onion juice also supports your scalp, and it does it by inhibiting fungal growth. - Forsetin in onions greatly reduces the more powerful form of testosterone called DHT. This compound, if in excess, can actually cause hair loss.

Are you suddenly losing hair around your hairline? This is a sign you're dealing with severe stress or you've experienced extreme trauma, and the flood of cortisol in your system triggers your hair follicles to prematurely shed. This is why you start losing your hairline after giving birth, going through surgery, or experiencing a traumatic change to your body.

DHT, or dihydrotestosterone, is testosterone with an extra hydrogen molecule. DHT interacts with hormone receptors in the body, acting as a key to open up different mechanisms. The presence of DHT alone does not guarantee hair loss. Hair loss occurs only if an individual has the gene that creates sensitivity to DHT.

Many young actresses and models have come to me seeking help with their hair loss. They have visited numerous physicians in Los Angeles without finding a solution. When they come to me in San Diego, I always ask if their ferritin levels have been tested. Surprisingly, they are often unaware of what ferritin is. I explain that it is a protein and we test it every time. In most cases, their ferritin levels are low, despite spending thousands of dollars on treatments like PRP and using minoxidil. These individuals are in good health and look great, but their hair continues to fall out.

The speaker discusses hair loss and potential fixes. They recommend using raw eggs and pearl powder for silky hair, and a real wood comb to avoid static from plastic that supposedly causes hair loss. They claim removing WiFi or wireless frequencies from the home is important because hair acts as antennas and begins to fall out when such frequencies are present. They also suggest a chlorine water filter, arguing chlorine travels to the scalp and dries out the hair follicle, causing them to break and fall. According to the speaker, hair loss is easy to fix if you eat the right foods, contrasting with the idea that fake foods weaken and cause hair loss. They assert the body is meant to have hair and describe hair as antennas that pick up oils from the skin and signal when something is wrong. They mention goosebumps as an example of hair follicles reacting to energy or stimuli, implying that when someone feels something energetic, their hairs raise and goosebumps occur, indicating the follicles’ sensitivity. The speaker expands the metaphor to suggest that if someone has no hair in certain areas, their “spidey sensors” disconnect, which they present as a condition to consider. They end with a speculative note that if society wanted to, they could program people to get rid of all their hair, framing it as a possibility for social manipulation.

For men in a certain age bracket experiencing hair loss, it's important to note where the hair is thinning. While many notice loss on top, density loss on the sides is often overlooked. Low vitamin D3 levels, around thirty nanograms per milliliter, are common in this age group and can lead to increased DHT. This increase can cause shedding across the entire scalp and slightly impair the immune system.

Three everyday habits can trigger hair loss: ultra-processed foods, refined carbohydrates, and stress. Processed foods can lead to dandruff, stopping hair growth and regrowth, and can promote obesity and insulin resistance, both of which can promote hair loss. Too many refined carbohydrates can be problematic, but being too low carb for too long can also lead to hair loss and hair thinning because of low thyroid functioning. Reducing stress and getting enough sleep is one of the best ways to ensure that your hair doesn't fall out. Minimizing these factors can stop hair thinning.

Hair is dead keratin protein, colorless, and made flexible by overlapping scales. Pigment in the cortex determines hair color: abundant pigment results in black hair, less pigment in brown or red hair, and no pigment in white hair. Hair grows about six inches annually from a living root. Balding is caused by reduced hormone levels. Each follicle has a muscle to raise and lower hair for temperature regulation. Sebum, an oily lubricant from hair glands, prevents hair from drying. Dandruff is dead cells caused by a yeast that eats sebum and irritates the scalp.

Three signs indicate hair loss: changes in hair shape and character, lighter hair color with less pigmentation, and miniaturization, which is fine baby hair appearing in the hairline, crown, or in between existing hairs. Miniaturization is the primary predictor of hair loss, indicating microscopic changes and active hair loss. It is recommended to consult a doctor for evaluation and potential medication.

Huberman Lab

The Science of Healthy Hair, Hair Loss and How to Regrow Hair | Huberman Lab Podcast

reSee.it Podcast Summary

In this episode of the Huberman Lab podcast, Andrew Huberman discusses the biology of hair, focusing on how to slow or reverse hair loss. He explains that each hair has its own stem cell niche in the follicle, which determines its growth duration. For example, scalp hair can grow for up to eight years, while eyebrow hair grows for only a few months. The podcast covers various factors influencing hair growth, including hormones, stress, and mechanical or chemical treatments. Huberman emphasizes the psychological impact of hair loss, noting that by age 50, about 50% of people experience noticeable hair loss, often leading to anxiety. He dispels myths about hair loss inheritance, clarifying that while genetics play a role, patterns of balding cannot be predicted solely by looking at relatives. The discussion includes various treatments for hair loss, such as minoxidil, which increases blood flow to hair follicles, and dutasteride, which inhibits the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone linked to hair loss. Other treatments mentioned include microneedling, which stimulates hair growth by increasing blood flow and reactivating stem cells, and ketoconazole, an antifungal that may help maintain hair. Huberman also highlights the importance of hormones like IGF-1 in promoting hair growth and the negative effects of DHT on hair follicles. He discusses the role of blood flow in hair health, recommending treatments that enhance circulation, such as scalp massages and certain medications. Caffeine is noted for its potential to inhibit PDE, which can indirectly stimulate IGF-1 and support hair growth. Additionally, he mentions the use of saw palmetto as a mild DHT inhibitor with few side effects. The podcast concludes with a summary of the various treatments available, emphasizing that combination therapies, particularly those that include both mechanical and chemical approaches, tend to be the most effective. Huberman encourages listeners to explore these options in consultation with healthcare professionals, considering individual responses and side effects.

#43–Alan Bauman, M.D.: The science of male and female hair restoration—how to protect & restore hair

Guests: Alan Bauman

reSee.it Podcast Summary

In this episode of The Drive, host Peter Attia discusses hair restoration with Dr. Alan Bauman, a board-certified hair transplant surgeon. Attia emphasizes his commitment to providing trustworthy, ad-free content, funded by listener support, to share valuable health and longevity information. Dr. Bauman shares insights from his extensive experience, having treated over 20,000 patients and performed more than 8,000 hair transplants. He explains that hair loss affects nearly 100 million Americans, with about 80 million men and 46 million women experiencing some form of hair thinning. The conversation highlights the emotional impact of hair loss, particularly for women, who often face societal pressures regarding their appearance. The discussion covers various non-surgical and surgical hair restoration options. Bauman details non-invasive treatments like PRP (platelet-rich plasma) therapy, which utilizes the patient's own blood to stimulate hair growth, and low-level laser therapy, which enhances follicle function. He notes that while PRP can improve hair density, it is not a solution for completely bald areas. Attia and Bauman delve into the mechanics of hair transplantation, explaining the difference between traditional strip harvesting and follicular unit extraction (FUE). FUE involves removing individual hair follicles with minimal scarring, allowing for a more natural appearance. Bauman emphasizes the importance of donor dominance, where hair follicles taken from the back and sides of the scalp retain their characteristics even when transplanted to balding areas. The episode also addresses the psychological aspects of hair loss treatment, emphasizing the need for clear communication between the surgeon and the patient regarding realistic expectations. Bauman highlights the importance of a comprehensive approach that includes both surgical and non-surgical options to achieve the best results. Attia expresses his appreciation for Bauman's expertise and the advancements in hair restoration techniques over the years. The conversation concludes with a call for listeners to engage with the podcast and share their questions about health and longevity topics.
