This video made me realize why my hair has started to grow back! In February 2023 I decided to commit to a better diet. So I've been consistently eating high quality proteins and a big huge salad every day at dinner, like at least 5 to 7 cups every day. I thought it was just the protein that did it but now I think the silica in all those veggies greatly contributed. So eat your vegetables people! And I'm only now realizing just how beneficial it's been to cook more at home. I used to have a terrible habit of always ordering for delivery. Restaurant food (as well as pre-cooked/pre-packaged, and processed food) is cooked with cheap seed oils and hidden sugars, which is inflammatory to your system. So it makes sense that the body prioritizes fighting against all that inflammation as opposed to wasting its resources toward the hair. Anyway, I've been in these better habits for 8.5 months now and my new hairs are about an inch and half so I'd say it probably took about 6 or 7 months. So maybe try improving your diet if you can't afford all those supplements. I hope that helps anyone out there!
@@Prosperity_888 Mostly a salad of cabbage, celery, and tomatoes topped with Sauerkraut. If I'm too lazy to cut up all those ingredients, I'll just buy the Superfood Veggie Slaw bags from Costco and put nothing else except maybe some olive oil and salt. It has bits of other veggies too like brussels sprouts. I like it because it's crunchy and tastes good to me, but you could use any salad base like spinach or lettuce. I eat at least 5 cups every day. I have hair growing back in where it was completely gone, and this improved diet is the only thing I've changed about my lifestyle in these last few months, so that's why I'm sure it's the nutrients that's helping it grow back. The only other thing I can think of is that I started washing my hair with a scalp massager three or four months ago, so maybe that contributed to some blood flow to the follicles. Good luck and feel free to ask any other questions!
@@leticiacastillo6550 Lately it's been the Veggie Slaw packs from Costco. It has lots of cabbage, carrots, brussels sprouts. I usually eat it with Sauerkraut or olive oil with salt. If Costco is out, I'll get the Cruciferous Vegetable packs from Trader Joe's. I used to eat more variety of salads that I cut up myself but I've been too lazy and/or busy lately, so those salad packs really come in handy.
In the past I tried many silica brands, usually in tablets, however, when I really started to notice any difference was when I tried liquid silica from Eidon, this is one of the few supplements that I tried in my life that I really noticed some effect in me, my hair grew faster and new hair was spotted in areas where I didn’t have so much hair
Tee tree oil base shampoo worked for me. Stimulates hair follicles and scalp. At age 50 my hair began to thin. This shampoo pumped the brakes and reversed the thinning process. Not sure how it would work on bald but definitely preventative for onset of hair thinning.
@@riadiation2243 about a month started seeing the stubble coming in. About 6 mos started blending with existing hair. I’d wash my hair about 3-4 times week with the Tee Tree. Lightly Massage the shampoo onto a dry scalp where thinning is starting. After massage I’d let the shampoo on my head for about 10 minutes then wet hair and shampoo the rest of my hair and rinse.
My own hair growth success journey, I followed this routine: 1. scalp massage everyday for at least 10-20 minutes a day 2. Taoist soap for hair growth for 2 times a week 3. Nettle Extract Supplement to remove hormone residue in the liver 4. Paraben free shampoo 5. nutritional amino acid supplement called collagen 2 times a day. Any brand is fine as long as sourced from bovine and hydrolyzed (will say on the packaging). Helped my brother who is 38 now, and full head of hair, and taught me this as he took years to find this out. Scalp massage is literally a replacement of minoxidil, so don't bother with that honestly.
Do you think it would help with thinking due to thyroid medication. I have hypothyroidism that led to SLE which is a type of lupus. I have been taking the medication several months and my part seems much wider. I’m panicking. I’m female. I’m def going to give your suggestion a try.
@@Hvamp yes it will help. We've given this method to many people with all kinds of conditions. Only thing with thyroid related or any hormone related conditions, we tell them to control their insulin by going on a lean animal protein diet. It stabilizes insulin, and forces other hormones to stabilize in turn. You just eat lean pieces of red meat, and cooked or steamed leafy greens like spinach, but not raw. This is how my brother has treated major hormone problems which normal doctors couldn't. Hope it helps.
@@iclickster5644 that sounds great to me. I’m on keto 20 carbs a day. I will switch to not eating the spinach raw. I was eating it that way at times. Back and forth between cooking it and having it raw. I’m going to do your method. Ty for getting back to me:)
@@Hvamp If i were you, i would stay away from keto. It works, but it destorys the hormone system totally. Nobody is talking about it enough, as it doesnt kill you, and just leaves you with life long problems. Even a 10 day keto diet damages the hormone system, especially thyroid.
I’ve tried every hair, skin, and nails supplement, and the one that works for me is Vitafusion’s Gorgeous Hair, Skin & Nails Gummies. They say to take three a day. I take four. I literally feel my scalp tingle! My hairdresser cannot get over my hair. I’m not going to buy anything where sharks are multilated for it.
Horsetail supplements are high in silica, I never thought much of it to regrow my hair for I had been focused on Vitamin D-3, Quercetin, & Pumpkin seed oil supplements. Well after seeing this? I'm buying a bottle of Horsetail supplements tom. Thank-you Doctor😊😊!

You're going to need sea kelp, selenium (I eat a Brazil nut every day) and zinc which is found in grass fed red meat and grass fed butter.
It still is. When I got mercury poisoning, I had to detox. My hair was slowly falling out after the detox. My functional medicine practitioner prescribed me horsetail. It seemed to work. It's fairly cheap too.
Informative as usual thanks. The supplements Dr Childs sells are very expensive & I live in the UK so shipping would no doubt add lots of money to the bill.
I've used Minoxidil for 35 years and, as you can see, I have a full head of hair. For 30 of those years, I even dyed my hair. Now, at age 92, it's even thicker than ever, thanks to one extra supplement.
Stuff that helps ..dial in the right amount of biotin , beta carotene A, silica, stinging nettle root, trirenol form of vitamin E, ginseng, cialis, copper, zinc, ..use hair growth formulations of shampoo and conditioner..take collagen and gelatin daily...avoid sugar, dairy, bread, alcohol..aerobic exercise
I think she was trying to add at the end ...aerobic exercise to stuff that helps. It definitely does. Even walking gets the blood circulating and flowing to the scalp.
I take a bamboo silica supplement from the bamboo shoots & have taken it for years however I’m losing my hair due to a low thyroid issue after discontinuing the combination birth control pill after taking it for 21 years. So yea, it’s not helping me now.
Thanks, very helpful, I'm on Levothiroxin and my hair is thining, I also doubt the dose is high enough but I'm due a chat with my Doc. so hopefully that can be looked into - thanks again....
We all need to trust in something or someone in life but eventually they will let you down. Why don't you put your hope and trust in Jesus Christ. He will never leave you or forsake you. He is faithful. 🙏 🙏
Pat,my trust has been in Jesus for the past 50 years. However, He simply has not stepped in to make my hair grow. So, in my particular case, you are incorrect that all I need to do is to trust in Him for my hair TO grow.
@@carolcole570 I am in the same boat myself. Despite all I try I don't have a lot of success with hair growth I don't suppose our hair growth or lack of it isn't a priority to Jesus. We need to trust Him with our salvation and the other problems we may have in this life. He healed my daughter of aggressive breast cancer. She didn't have the prescribed chemotherapy but was trusting in the Lord for her healing. He didn't disappoint. You can trust him when you are in trouble. He is faithful..

Thank you Dr Childs for all the great information. One question. Is horsetail ok for the thyroid. I don’t remember where I heard that you shouldn’t take it if you have a thyroid problem. I was bummed out to hear that .
Silica (silicon) detoxes aluminum which interrupts the thyroid uptake of iodine. I take synthroid (88 mcg) and I drink a lot of Figi water because of the silica content. I haven't had any problems. Check out Chris Exley PhD. He says to drink a liter of Figi twice a day for 13 days. You should drink each liter within an hour.
@saramartinez103, you're welcome. I take a horsetail capsule every day, and I use a horsetail tincture on my face in the morning and evening. It does wonders for hair, nails, and skin. Enjoy your results!
I would like to add that horsetail contains an enzyme called thiaminase, which depletes your thiamine (B1). I strongly recommend taking a B1 supplement as I do this to prevent the depletion. I take extra B1 for various health reasons on top of it all. The results from the horsetail make it all worthwhile to take extra.
@@BlackButterFlyTongue how amazing this plant is! Thank you for sharing your results as well. I heard about the B1 vitamin situation but I read somewhere that as long as you drink your tea from drive leaves, you will be okay. I will take the extra support to continue with this miraculous plant. Thanks for the info
No, they are not the same. Silicone is completely different and is a rubber-like substance. However, silica and silicon are closely related, but are different in chemical structure
Not necessarily. NAC, that should be used to prevent bad respiratory symptoms from the flu and covid, was literally ignored by everybody and it's still very cheap at any supplement store
Just a snippet of info because I WISH someone would have told me -I don't know if you'd heard of it but here are a few natural things that do in FACT help thyroid. MOST Doctors will NEVER tell you this nor will they even test it. I know because I had issues with my thyroid also. They never took tests past T3 and T4. You can take a Mineral deficiency Test. One that tests your Iodine, and Selenium. Both are MAJOR CRITICAL components of what make your thyroid work or not. They effect your metabolism/hormone endocrine system. Rather than tell you that they put you on these medications. Most Americans are deficient in minerals due to changing practices in farming. We no longer get the nutrients necessary for our body to run optimally. That's. 100% fact. You can research Iodine and Selenium deficiency and it's role in reversal of thyroid health. Secondly, Black Seed Oil has been studied extensively for thyroid health, inflammation, diabetes, insulin resistance, and so on. You can take 1 tablespoon in the.morning and one at night. It's an anti-inflammatory/antioxidant/antifungal/anticancer/and so on. I'm not someone who blindly or naively spreads claims. I've gone faaaar down the rabbit hole lol..I was determined to help myself when I realized I was the only one I had. I began to lose weight, feel better...I just..I wish someone would have told me..and I want you to feel your best too. You deserve that. ❤
I don't suppose you could help me learn what I can do to have thicker skin I eat clean keto sardines liver raw butter i get my greens eggs lemons hydrate i use supplements but maybe I'm missing something my skin is so thin
Its silica, not silicon, kervrans silica was a product on sale for years from horsetail herb. The new one punted is Bamboo extract claiming to have more silica than horsetail.
Horsetail is usually used as a silica supplement (oxide form of silicon), which is about 25% of plant dry matter. Researchers assume that some of the benefits of horsetail are due to silica [4].Jan 28, 2
How does urinary excretion (referring to the sited study) relate to absorption rates? Absorption means it's being absorbed by your body via digestion and is being transported to your cells so it can be utilized. Urinary excretion means that it's being eliminated by your body in the urine (unused). Could I be reading the text incorrectly? Also, this study was done with fasting individuals. Would one need to fast in order to achieve these absorption rates?
How about Silicon in shampoo! I have been told over and over by Sephora employees that good shampoos are free of silicon and sulfate ! what is your opinion about this matter
What do you think of the Huber Silicea Gel for a reputable supplement? Each 15 ml contains 196 mg of Elemental Silicon and just water, would you say that's a good brand?
Shark fin…shame on Viviscal. Anyone considering buying it, please look up how they slice off the sharks fin as it is still alive and throw it back in the ocean as it thrashes in pain. It’s sickening. Nutrafol has a vegan option and their non vegan option does not have shark.
Shame on YOU Lola‼️YOU should be watching reports of those sharks butchering and eating people on the beaches of Australia, South Africa, Florida or California...😮
In the Nutrafol is the high level of biotin causing hair growth as well? I’m on a low-carb way of eating and struggling with hair loss. Several years ago I took enormous amounts of biotin and my hair grew like crazy! I’m taking so many supplements now that I’m a little nervous about taking large amounts of it now.
I wouldn't recommend those low carb diets just find a balanced diet that gives you energy. some days you might be inactive so it makes sense to eat low carb, but in general we want energy to fuel our body/mind from simple sugars (fruit) not complex carbs/refined sugar. fruit and salad works for me with once in a while a cooked meal. that way I know I'm getting abundance of nutrients and water from a plant. just like the electromagnetic spectrum I suspect many more aspects to nutrition exist unknown about, yet we can safely assume the foods nature produces in a whole raw state can be trusted wholeheartedly and will give us an adequate number of nutrients. we don't need all nutrients in 1 meal, as animals eat seasonally and forage from different sources. fruits have the highest bioavailability of nutrients that basically means what we can absorb with ease. hair loss can be excess worry/stress, dehydration/dryness, body releasing acids/toxins from the natural layer of oil in the scalp or it can be genetic and lifestyle related. in simple terms dryness, dampness, heat. but we should not focus on what we're missing all the time. acceptance would be important and adapting a diet that supports you feeling good before anything else. foods that are grounding, energizing, nourishing, hydrating, uplifting, ecological...etc. Biotin can be found in holland and barrets I do take vit D, and biotin although I could happily not take them now I can get sunlight and will fast intermittent which improves our own vitamin production.
@@elevans5758 Costco sells sublingual tablets of biotin, I wait for it to go on sale and stock up. I've found that it makes me break out though, which is a bummer.
If you are doing low carb, make sure you are doing a high fat diet as well. It makes a huge difference with balancing hormones and absorbing supplements
Funny story…I grew up constantly hearing my granddad tell the story of his friend that shaved his head because he was going bald. This guy decided to get a tattoo on his newly bald head for fun. Suddenly he saw hair regrowing in the tattooed area. He decided to go back to the tattoo parlor and have them run the tattoo needle over his entire head without the ink. He figured it would regrow his hair everywhere else on his head. Well…It worked. His hair regrew. I’m by no means encouraging having a tattoo needle ran over your head lol. Please don’t! Pretty painful hair regrowth method. The story just came to my mind while watching the video and reading the comments from others on scalp stimulation methods. Additionally, I happen to be a retired cosmetologist myself. I think what likely happened with this man is the tattoo needle stimulated hair growth through scalp stimulation. Similar to massaging the scalp with oils or using a high frequency electrode scalp stimulator. These are 2 methods we used and were taught about in cosmetology school for hair stimulation. I’d recommend that before tattoo needling. The Nioxin hair care system works for some people also. I’m experiencing hair loss myself now from having autoimmune disease and being on various medications that cause hair loss. Due to those factors most things probably won’t help me too much. I’m for sure NOT gonna run a tattoo needle over my head lol, but I may try the silicon mmst. Blessings for hair growth and good health to all🙏🏻😉

Would this work for SLE hair loss. I have been taking a high dose of levothyroxine each day for hypothyroidism. I noticed my part has gotten wider. My nails break easily too due to the SLE. If you could give me some info on what products I should use and how much would be terrific.
Hi u saw your comment and my heart goes out to u thriod problems are actually hormone issue once u take a stool test it would determine what problems u are facing and then u can proceed from there u hope this help
It's not great stuff but lots of vitamins have it. So, depending on budget and availability , you might just chance it if it helps your hair. Lot of stuff not the best for us. Sodas, for instance .
FWTW for what its worth - In Genesis Ch 1 it says Yah gave us dominion over animals & plants & fish. Also Yah blessed Abel's animal offering not Cain's grain offering. In Gospel Jesus spoke to non kosher food with letters in red Mark 7:18-20. Dont believe me. If you go by the Word live by the Word. I am not going to switch to a wig to save animals in my 60s. A womans hair it is a glory. See 1 Cor 11:15. I filter my life thru the Word not by my feelings or pressure from my circles. So if this method works I will endorse it.
Castor oil / Olive oil 50/50 mix
Rosemary oil 5 drops
Tea tree oil 5 drops
Pure caffeine powder 30mg
Apply this to the head once per day and leave on with shower cap for 30 minutes.
Silicone head massager - 5 -10 minutes 2-3 times per day.
Silica supplement once per day.
Well done! I love these presentations. No silly background music. Just facts. Thank you.

Stuff that helps ..dial in the right amount of biotin , beta carotene A, silica, stinging nettle root, trirenol form of vitamin E, ginseng, cialis, copper, zinc, ..use hair growth formulations of shampoo and conditioner..take collagen and gelatin daily...avoid sugar, dairy, bread, alcohol..aerobic exercise
Sorry! Are you saying to avoid aerobic exercises as well?
wouldnt the exercise help because of blood flow?
@idolhanz I’m confused can u tell me why I need to avoid aerobic exercise?
I think she was trying to add at the end ...aerobic exercise to stuff that helps. It definitely does. Even walking gets the blood circulating and flowing to the scalp.
@idolhanz9842,
Take collagen and gelatin and, also do aerobic exercise daily.
I take a bamboo silica supplement from the bamboo shoots & have taken it for years however I’m losing my hair due to a low thyroid issue after discontinuing the combination birth control pill after taking it for 21 years. So yea, it’s not helping me now.
Thanks, very helpful, I'm on Levothiroxin and my hair is thining, I also doubt the dose is high enough but I'm due a chat with my Doc. so hopefully that can be looked into - thanks again....
Same, how now is it still falling out?
Yes - same here - I got off that garbage!
We all need to trust in something or someone in life but eventually they will let you down. Why don't you put your hope and trust in Jesus Christ. He will never leave you or forsake you. He is faithful. 🙏 🙏
Pat,my trust has been in Jesus for the past 50 years. However, He simply has not stepped in to make my hair grow. So, in my particular case, you are incorrect that all I need to do is to trust in Him for my hair TO grow.
@@carolcole570 I am in the same boat myself. Despite all I try I don't have a lot of success with hair growth I don't suppose our hair growth or lack of it isn't a priority to Jesus. We need to trust Him with our salvation and the other problems we may have in this life. He healed my daughter of aggressive breast cancer. She didn't have the prescribed chemotherapy but was trusting in the Lord for her healing. He didn't disappoint. You can trust him when you are in trouble. He is faithful..
@@carolcole570 I am in the same boat. I have tried almost everything but haven't had a lot of success. Perhaps our hair growth isn't a priority to Jesus.

He will be there fo us when we really need Him. He is faithfull.
Wouldn't it be dosage rather than serving?
Rosemary works for me
Can you please share a few brands that contain monomethylsilanetriol form of silica?
I would also like to know!
No response?!
I think you’d need to tag for attention? I doubt the op scrolls through the comments tbh
Irwin hair and nail supplement
I take silica from Dr Mercola, it has the MMST form of silica.
unless we know where, and under what name,we can buy it, it does not help us.
how about silicon dioxide? is that a good absorbed form?
How about diatomaceous earth? Isn’t that one of the highest sources of silica?
Thank you Dr Childs for all the great information. One question. Is horsetail ok for the thyroid. I don’t remember where I heard that you shouldn’t take it if you have a thyroid problem. I was bummed out to hear that .
I'd like to know this as well. I have Hashimoto's and have experienced hair thinning over past few years.
Silica (silicon) detoxes aluminum which interrupts the thyroid uptake of iodine. I take synthroid (88 mcg) and I drink a lot of Figi water because of the silica content. I haven't had any problems. Check out Chris Exley PhD. He says to drink a liter of Figi twice a day for 13 days. You should drink each liter within an hour.
Well you just blew Biosil out of the water too, which costs a fortune. i’m just going to eat a lot more green beans of try MMST.
will it help with alopecia
Hey Dr Child's. Thanks!!
Is the Horsetail plant a good form of it?
Yes
@@BlackButterFlyTongue thank you! It's been a week since I started drinking and my shedding has stopped.....I can't believe but so happy
@saramartinez103, you're welcome. I take a horsetail capsule every day, and I use a horsetail tincture on my face in the morning and evening. It does wonders for hair, nails, and skin. Enjoy your results!
I would like to add that horsetail contains an enzyme called thiaminase, which depletes your thiamine (B1). I strongly recommend taking a B1 supplement as I do this to prevent the depletion. I take extra B1 for various health reasons on top of it all. The results from the horsetail make it all worthwhile to take extra.
@@BlackButterFlyTongue how amazing this plant is! Thank you for sharing your results as well. I heard about the B1 vitamin situation but I read somewhere that as long as you drink your tea from drive leaves, you will be okay. I will take the extra support to continue with this miraculous plant. Thanks for the info
What silicon do you recommend?
Guys try vitamina e AND Virgin coconut oil 50/50 your hair grows like crazy you can use It in your beard as well
I take BioSil which co gains silicon. I learned about it from Christy Brinkley.
I'm a pharmacist and I take Biosil also. I use Rogaine everyday and also rosemary oil with castor oil as a carrier.
I take Biosil also but take two tablets twice a day.
Are silicon, silicone and silica the same?
No, they are not the same. Silicone is completely different and is a rubber-like substance. However, silica and silicon are closely related, but are different in chemical structure
I just need one vitamin to regrow baldness
If this worked - it would be sold out and the price would be through the roof
Spot on
Not necessarily.
NAC, that should be used to prevent bad respiratory symptoms from the flu and covid, was literally ignored by everybody and it's still very cheap at any supplement store
Yes I had half of my thyroid out and my hair loss has been goin on for the last year. I take levothyroxine. ,
Just a snippet of info because I WISH someone would have told me
-I don't know if you'd heard of it but here are a few natural things that do in FACT help thyroid.
MOST Doctors will NEVER tell you this nor will they even test it. I know because I had issues with my thyroid also. They never took tests past T3 and T4.
You can take a Mineral deficiency Test. One that tests your Iodine, and Selenium. Both are MAJOR CRITICAL components of what make your thyroid work or not. They effect your metabolism/hormone endocrine system. Rather than tell you that they put you on these medications. Most Americans are deficient in minerals due to changing practices in farming. We no longer get the nutrients necessary for our body to run optimally. That's. 100% fact. You can research Iodine and Selenium deficiency and it's role in reversal of thyroid health.
Secondly, Black Seed Oil has been studied extensively for thyroid health, inflammation, diabetes, insulin resistance, and so on.
You can take 1 tablespoon in the.morning and one at night. It's an anti-inflammatory/antioxidant/antifungal/anticancer/and so on.
I'm not someone who blindly or naively spreads claims. I've gone faaaar down the rabbit hole lol..I was determined to help myself when I realized I was the only one I had. I began to lose weight, feel better...I just..I wish someone would have told me..and I want you to feel your best too. You deserve that. ❤
Genesis. Man was made from the earth .
I wonder about drinking something like Fiji water which contains silica. What percentage of that silica would be absorbed?
I have the same question as you.
Im drinking fiji on a daily basis just for this reason, but I wonder if its enough...
Kidney stones in your future
So what vitamin do you guys recommend
im confused about something... What about bamboo shoots? Would your absorption be good with this or is the mmst still the best absorbed in the body?
I use bamboo powder for my creamer. It's something like 70% silica.
Hi enjoying your videos. What about goitergen veggies?
I got the silica an biotin formula together I hope that’s ok
Useful information.
is it the same as silica?
I don't suppose you could help me learn what I can do to have thicker skin
I eat clean keto sardines liver raw butter i get my greens eggs lemons hydrate i use supplements but maybe I'm missing something my skin is so thin
What about Silica Water?? 9:52
Excellent content as usual!! Dr.Childs, is silica the same thing as silicon? And where can we find a supplement with MMST? Thank you so much.
Yes, would be nice to know))
Most definitely would like to know as I have young bamboo plants in my backyard. Lots of silica.
"Living Silica" and "Dr Mercola Silica Collagen Booster" both contain plenty of MMST
I asked too
I believe silicon comes from silica...i use silicon on my skin. Silica and collagen together is a powerhouse for hair, skin, and nails.
Its silica, not silicon, kervrans silica was a product on sale for years from horsetail herb. The new one punted is Bamboo extract claiming to have more silica than horsetail.
The element is silicon. The oxide form is silica
Kevin,
Silicon is a natural chemical whereas, silica is man-made!
Silicon and silica (beach sand) are natural earth elements. Silicone (a polymer) is man made.
Drink silica water to improve hair health.
Horsetail is usually used as a silica supplement (oxide form of silicon), which is about 25% of plant dry matter. Researchers assume that some of the benefits of horsetail are due to silica [4].Jan 28, 2
How does urinary excretion (referring to the sited study) relate to absorption rates? Absorption means it's being absorbed by your body via digestion and is being transported to your cells so it can be utilized. Urinary excretion means that it's being eliminated by your body in the urine (unused). Could I be reading the text incorrectly? Also, this study was done with fasting individuals. Would one need to fast in order to achieve these absorption rates?
I’d like to see an answer to your question also but I think you need to ‘tag for attention?’
Prob take it on an empty stomach
How about Silicon in shampoo! I have been told over and over by Sephora employees that good shampoos are free of silicon and sulfate ! what is your opinion about this matter
I think they mean silicone not silicon. Silicone is like plastic that coats the hair and makes it look shiny but is not healthy.
Silica and silicone are not the same...
What do you think of the Huber Silicea Gel for a reputable supplement? Each 15 ml contains 196 mg of Elemental Silicon and just water, would you say that's a good brand?
I have used silica gel many times...it worked well!
@@XanderN4TheLogosplease share how to use it. Thank you
@@divakim206 I would shake the bottle and take one tablespoon everyday in the morning.
@@XanderN4TheLogos thank you😊
Shark fin…shame on Viviscal. Anyone considering buying it, please look up how they slice off the sharks fin as it is still alive and throw it back in the ocean as it thrashes in pain. It’s sickening. Nutrafol has a vegan option and their non vegan option does not have shark.
Shame on YOU Lola‼️YOU should be watching reports of those sharks butchering and eating people on the beaches of Australia, South Africa, Florida or California...😮
Good they’re a curse in the ocean.
In the Nutrafol is the high level of biotin causing hair growth as well? I’m on a low-carb way of eating and struggling with hair loss. Several years ago I took enormous amounts of biotin and my hair grew like crazy! I’m taking so many supplements now that I’m a little nervous about taking large amounts of it now.
where can one buy biotin?
I wouldn't recommend those low carb diets just find a balanced diet that gives you energy. some days you might be inactive so it makes sense to eat low carb, but in general we want energy to fuel our body/mind from simple sugars (fruit) not complex carbs/refined sugar.
fruit and salad works for me with once in a while a cooked meal. that way I know I'm getting abundance of nutrients and water from a plant. just like the electromagnetic spectrum I suspect many more aspects to nutrition exist unknown about, yet we can safely assume the foods nature produces in a whole raw state can be trusted wholeheartedly and will give us an adequate number of nutrients.
we don't need all nutrients in 1 meal, as animals eat seasonally and forage from different sources. fruits have the highest bioavailability of nutrients that basically means what we can absorb with ease.
hair loss can be excess worry/stress, dehydration/dryness, body releasing acids/toxins from the natural layer of oil in the scalp or it can be genetic and lifestyle related. in simple terms dryness, dampness, heat. but we should not focus on what we're missing all the time.
acceptance would be important and adapting a diet that supports you feeling good before anything else. foods that are grounding, energizing, nourishing, hydrating, uplifting, ecological...etc.
Biotin can be found in holland and barrets I do take vit D, and biotin although I could happily not take them now I can get sunlight and will fast intermittent which improves our own vitamin production.
@@elevans5758 Costco sells sublingual tablets of biotin, I wait for it to go on sale and stock up. I've found that it makes me break out though, which is a bummer.
If you are doing low carb, make sure you are doing a high fat diet as well. It makes a huge difference with balancing hormones and absorbing supplements
Large amounts of biotin can actually cause hair loss
All the questions here that people ask and this guy doesn't seem to answer one of them.
Can anything help eybrows grow back?
Aleovera helps to grow
@@Rajathi04 thank you
try castor/rosemary oil combo
Google "Uncle Leo eyebrows". Easy fix.
Silica says it’s silicon dioxide. Is that ok?
Needs to be the MMST type.
Funny story…I grew up constantly hearing my granddad tell the story of his friend that shaved his head because he was going bald. This guy decided to get a tattoo on his newly bald head for fun. Suddenly he saw hair regrowing in the tattooed area. He decided to go back to the tattoo parlor and have them run the tattoo needle over his entire head without the ink. He figured it would regrow his hair everywhere else on his head. Well…It worked. His hair regrew.
I’m by no means encouraging having a tattoo needle ran over your head lol. Please don’t! Pretty painful hair regrowth method. The story just came to my mind while watching the video and reading the comments from others on scalp stimulation methods.
Additionally, I happen to be a retired cosmetologist myself. I think what likely happened with this man is the tattoo needle stimulated hair growth through scalp stimulation. Similar to massaging the scalp with oils or using a high frequency electrode scalp stimulator. These are 2 methods we used and were taught about in cosmetology school for hair stimulation. I’d recommend that before tattoo needling. The Nioxin hair care system works for some people also. I’m experiencing hair loss myself now from having autoimmune disease and being on various medications that cause hair loss. Due to those factors most things probably won’t help me too much. I’m for sure NOT gonna run a tattoo needle over my head lol, but I may try the silicon mmst. Blessings for hair growth and good health to all🙏🏻😉
Ever heard derma roller device for hair ??
I was going to comment the same thing... DIY microneedling. There's now a Microneedling Pen
Would SILICA , being the primary ingredient of silicone, work as well?
Silicon is the element but silica is a compound if silicon and oxygen.
Hi I have question can I take this supplement because I have thyroid nodules and my hyperthyroidism

Would this work for SLE hair loss. I have been taking a high dose of levothyroxine each day for hypothyroidism. I noticed my part has gotten wider. My nails break easily too due to the SLE. If you could give me some info on what products I should use and how much would be terrific.
try to get off levothyroxine....Doctors overprescribe and use the thyroid for profit. every woman I know has been told they have hypothyroidism.

Viviscal in it's ingredients contains magnesium stearate, isn't that bad for you?

FWTW for what its worth - In Genesis Ch 1 it says Yah gave us dominion over animals & plants & fish. Also Yah blessed Abel's animal offering not Cain's grain offering. In Gospel Jesus spoke to non kosher food with letters in red Mark 7:18-20. Dont believe me. If you go by the Word live by the Word. I am not going to switch to a wig to save animals in my 60s. A womans hair it is a glory. See 1 Cor 11:15. I filter my life thru the Word not by my feelings or pressure from my circles. So if this method works I will endorse it.
Nutrafol and Vivacal gave me migraines.
