Thanks a lot for your video. After recovering from covid, I noticed hair was thinning. I changed my shampoo and oil to littlleexttrra cooconioon, and it really helped lessen my hair fall and promote hair growth. Additionally, I began using a scalp massager, as it cleans the scalp thoroughly during shampooing.
I used Littlellextra Cocoonnion oil, and it’s amazing. It's packed with sulfur and potassium, which boosts scalp blood flow, resulting in better hair growth and controlled hair loss. One of the key ingredients is onion and coconut oil, which support the growth of new hair.
I'm 61 and have most of my hair and have been eating pumpkin seeds /pepitas for years .. They help big time .. Love them . Put them in salads , cereals , smoothies , sandwiches ... etc. They are great !
@@Igweka7695 i’m sorry to hear that you have difficulty chewing. You could blend them into a smoothie or buy pumpkin seed butter. You could grind them yourself in a coffee grinder or seed grinder, to save money. Good luck! 😊
I've been sleeping with rosemary oil mixed with a tiny bit of olive oil on my scalp for almost a year. I have clear hair regrowth...lots of short hairs everywhere now. Rosemary essential oil is shown to be as effective as 2% Minoxidil but without side effects.
I have taken Finasteride for 23 years, without any known ill effects. It halted the hairloss I had at age 25, and I still have most of my hair at 48. I will add pumpkin seeds, though.
I'm lucky to still have a full head of hair. But rearching my mid 30's I started to notice 6 or so stray hairs in the shower every day. I've started eating half a block of tofu, caynnne pepper, soy milk, Calorlina reaper sauce and pumpkin seeds daily and it has essentially stopped all noticable shedding within a few weeks. It might not be enough for people who are genetically balding at a young age but it definitely seems effective in maintaining
You have changed my life so much, I started reading your books and despite not being the most diligent or organised person, and still prone to sweet and salty mishaps, I have changed my diet considerably. Our family is now vegetarian, which was a steep menu planning curve for us, but we have come to a place where planning our weekly vegetarian menu has become completely routine. As a scientist working in drug development I love your systematic review approach and only wish that more people would listen to what is probably the easiest thing you can do to improve your health, which is ‘eat more plants’. Please keep doing what you do!
I eat 1/4 cup of sprouted pumpkin seeds every day. They are delicious! I like to mix some with sunflower and hemp seeds then put that over frozen blueberries and dark cherries with dash of Ceylon cinnamon. So good!
I’ve been doing about 3-4 pumpkin seeds with small applications of organic pumpkin seed oil to my problem areas of hair loss, but by golly gosh I’m going to do pumpkin seed sprouts! Thank you for this idea!! I’ve already noticed quite the improvement, so I can only hope that this sets things into overdrive, I don’t care if I look like Sasquatch, I’m ready!
I eat pumkin seeds every day and have done for many years. My hair is thinning, and every time I brush or combe, some always falls out. I am whole food plant based , I follow Dr. G and Dr. Fuhrman
Quick summary: Eat squash and pumpkin seeds, hot peppers, and soy. Take zinc supplement for hair because you're probably deficient if you eat plant based.
Right now currently Minoxidil applied twice a day slows hair loss and for some can result in some hair regrowth. Often times the hair regrowth is small thinning hairs but it’s better than nothing right? For those who can apply Minoxidil everyday without any skin irritation I believe this is the best thing to do before permenant hairloss occcurs. That is until science catches up and figures out how to stop DHT from attacking the hair receptors and blocking them of their nutrients. I think hair regrowth is a much harder task to accomplish but I am still hopeful. Unfortunately, no shampoo, foods, or suppliments effect hair loss. However, just because having a healthy diet doesn’t influence hairloss everyone should still try and maintain a healthy diet regardless :)
@@liquidSpin Yes, it did seem to improve a bit after stopping. I've been on pumpkin seeds for a few weeks, will wait a couple of months to see if that makes any difference.
@@furyofbongos Good luck, but pumpkin seeds won’t help. The body’s production of DHT is the culprit but why DHT effects some and not everyone is still unknown. However, good luck and hope your hairloss improves~
@@furyofbongos Dr. Greger never stated any proof. He just mentioned a very very small clinical trial of 76 people who were given pumpkin seed oil. He also implies that the earlier you eat a plant based diet excluding meats that this will improve your body's resistant to hairloss. Having good bacteria in the gut to having more soy products in the diet. However, he makes no claim that this will in fact reverse or cure hairloss. Please rewatch his video to understand he is providing. Cheers~
I have read, that fenugreek lovers levels of DHT, also by blocking the conversion from testosterone, hence allowing for more testosterone in the blood. Could this have an effect on hairloss. I know that there is likely no study on this, but just sharing own speculation. Hope you reply NutritionFacts - big fan of the channel.
Castor oil increase hair growth and helps the scalp to recover! Diet has to be rather alkaline than acidic, you have to live stress free! There is a procedure that some specialists know it for hair recovery ( it is some sort of stimulation and recovery of the scalp but also the entire organism!). Eredity doesn't decide entirely your health problems, it is rather the habits that you take from your predecessors, and the fact that you live in the same place for a long period of time!
Doc, most grains data is 50-70 grams carbs per raw portion. Same these grains with 20-30 grams carbs per 100 g but COOKED. I ve heard that cooked are better because digest better and absorption is better even with less carbs. I m an athlete thats why I m asking. Should we cook grains or not and are grains staple diet for humans. I prefer buckwheat and quinoa instead wheat or rye or barley. Thank you!
Whole grains are a staple in the human diet, populations that don't eat many tend to eat starchy root veg instead. The reason the carbs per hundred grams go down when cooked is just because the grains are plumped up with water. The carbs per calorie is still the same. Cooked grains are certainly easier to digest.
I have eaten pumpkin seeds for two and a half years and drink green smoothies, green tea and Cinnamon and salmon and flaxseeds but poor sleeping habits. My hairloss is slightly worse ?
If anything worked, especially when it comes to diet, then Dr. Greger would have Steven Tyler hair. Grass doesn’t grow on a playground…why trade sexual function for hair?!?! Switched from cow’s milk to soy milk 15 years ago…still bald and the hair all over my body continues to thin. Brother, father, uncles, grandfather, great grandfather…all bald. You think anything is going to stop that kind of genetics? Nope.
@@tamcon72 Seriously? That’s even a comment? Of course it’s genetic. Of course he said it’s genetic. Everyone with a brain knows it’s genetic. The point is, why go to all this trouble of finding cures for baldness when it’s GENETIC? Wow. It’s embarrassing that you are clueless, lack reading comprehension, and would berate someone for a light-hearted comment. Geesh. Maybe you should see if diet works for anger management.
@@Max.Resilience Nice, just what a muscle for brains guy would say. Let’s judge people on their appearance…as if that means a damn thing. Greger looks healthy…a healthy nerd. Wake up and smell the coffee bud, the nerds are twice as smart as you.
He has never practiced as a medical doctor. It is better to call him Michael Greiger, MD, because he received an MD but has in no way ever practiced medicine.
The benefits of Finasteride go well beyond the aesthetic, as you would know if you read why 5mg Proscar (generic Finasteride) is available. This is actually the product I use and several people use fractioned to 1mg. Personally, I fraction it to half of that. Also: 1. Studies show that a quarter of this (standard prescribed amount for hair loss) has very similar results, reducing the chance of any side-effects. 2. Doctors that have been prescribing it for years on the regular dose report that the side-effects you spook people with are extremely rare. I personally never had any, even when I was on the full dose, but of course that is what it is.
I highly doubt that the dose of 5mg has any clinically meaningful increase of side effects from 1mg considering the fact that the extra 4mg virtually has no effect on DHT because of the logarithmic relation between DHT reduction and Finasteride. Sexual side effects which are the most common.side effects on Finasteride are uncommon anyways affecting about 2,1-3,8% of users
They say it's uncommon but every guy I know (friends, business partner, BF) all admit it effected their sex drive. I think the manufacturer is hiding true percentages
I eat a plant-based diet and use a menthol hair tonic every day and I have alot more hair than my brother, who just eats the SAD and doesn't treat his thinning hair.
@@Magnulus76 How do you know your hair's actually gotten better? My dad is almost completely bald on top of his head. His brother was an alcoholic for 25 years and at 50 had way more hair than my dad at the same age.
i used pumpkin seed oil suplement. And it works for hair loss BUT : after 6 months i did break 2 weeks and i notice i feel better , less melanholy, more manly more positive agresive. after that i notice i stoped suplementation. Its not worth!!! if you want keep hairs you need pay for that manly atributes, its not worthy :-) good luck fellas After 2-3 months without suple,ment i notice strong hair loss , so Pumpkin Seed oil is very good againt hair loss
What about red light for hair growth in led light form doesn't it activate ATP production of cells which may be senescent in PTSD leading to cellular death via stress causing hair loss and that red light can be therapeutic?
TL: DR Supplements don't help unless you already have a deficiency Propecia helps but side effects can last for years even after you finish using it Eat pumpkin seeds for hair growth
What you said about supplements is totally false and bogus. There exists a deficiency level, a higher optimality level, and an even higher overdose level.
It worked for me. Started taking it at age 35, when I noticed I was receding in a major way. Took the 2% solution for 15 years, until at age 50 noticed I was losing a lot of hair. Started taking the 5% formulation, and noticed a major re-growth surge. At 54 years, the minox is still working...that's almost 20 years. I definitely do not have the thickness I had in my 20's...but I certainly don't look bald/balding. However, what worked for me may not work for others. You have to use it at least once a day, which is a pain in the A.
I really wished I hadn't taken dutasteride. My hair loss was likely due to telogen effluvium, and then I only learn ages later about the buried possibility that side effects could be long term or permanent
I'm skeptical regarding whether you can get 6mg of capsaicin in 1/4 jalapeno. What I could find on internet was 1.12 mg per gram for DRIED jalapenos so you would need to eat a lot more.
@@NoExitLoveNow yep I started using calofornia reaper paste. Only need quarter a teaspoon but got damn it rocks your socks off. jalapenos don't seem to be a consistant reliable source to hit 6mg
Food to help with hair loss at about 9:50 min. Wow 😲. Now what was that I ate last week that made me, a 60 year old, sexually aroused for more than a few days; was it that ginger?? LOL. 😁 Eating my pumpkin seeds, soy and jalapeno daily. Thanks Doc!
I think he said that most of hair loss is genetic. Obviously his hair loss is genetic. The purpose of the video is to help modify environmental factors that might cause hair loss in addition to genetics
Not working obviously ☺️ It's just an accessory.. Propecia has been proven to work and the side effects are very uncommon or non-existent. Shave it anyway, blade 1 no fuss.
Why would you promote a very narrow kind of plant-based hairloss treatment that is widely known to be anti-androgenic? I like that you point out the side effects of finasteride and the role that lifestyle and diet play, but I would rather explore what the people that participated in the gut biome experiment actually ate. I highly doubt it's all down to meat consumption, but plants are probably beneficial.
Dr. Greger is a superstar, and he brings his views on the medical world with a great humor. But, wait- - Isn't Dr. Greger the LAST person on earth to educate us about us about hair loss?!?! (err, the elephant in the room... most of commenters ignored it...). (And If it is all genetics, then no diet regimen would help, as I am sure he, who knows exactly what to eat, would have come next lectures with a head full of hair). BUT I got it- since Dr. Greger has a great humor- this is all a joke, purposely posted and provoked... right? Thanks Dr. Greger, keep your humor and your so-funny lectures.

(And If it is all genetics, then no diet regimen would help, as I am sure he, who knows exactly what to eat, would have come next lectures with a head full of hair). BUT I got it- since Dr. Greger has a great humor- this is all a joke, purposely posted and provoked... right? Thanks Dr. Greger, keep your humor and your so-funny lectures.
No-one ever said it was ALL genetics. Dr. Gregor certainly never has. "Genetics loads the gun but lifestyle pulls the trigger".

Chinese pumpkin seed stocks just went up
I doubt it
The downside of soy is gynecomastia, you preserve your hair but gain manboobs in return.
i hear pumpkin seeds.. i hear not ejaculating.. this sounds like a zinc thing to me
Put it to the test?
No
Saw Palmetto?
Well, I suppose he didn't take the advice.
And he talks about preventing hair loss...............he did something wrong ha ha ha
Don't take hair loss advice from a bald guy. What am I missing here?
Has to be satire surely?
Every video of this shaman is as useless as this one peddling specific outcomes that simply don’t work, as evidenced by his own condition.
April fools!
I'm hesitant to devote time to watch a presentation on "preventing hair loss" by a doctor who has NOT PREVENTED HIS OWN HAIR LOSS.
