I did lose head hair with low / no carb and lost 50#'s, but it came back by the end of twelve months. The hair not the weight (weight loss is going on four years now). Seems to have gotten a bit darker than it was previously.
The only bad part of keto is buying new clothing, unless you hoard your old smaller clothes.
I am like you same thing has happened to me too. Been doing Keto 12 mths now and as I am a sewer have been altering my clothing to fit. My weight I would rather put some weight back on as I feel I have lost too much.
Oh! My hair îs darker too. I didn't know why. Now i know. Thank you!
@@elizabethrowe7262 the saying goes: you can never be too rich or too thin
same here. I can easily fit in my school clothes 😂😂😂
My hair loss started at 7 months into Keto.
Been on Keto now for 15 months, and my hair is gradually thickening up.
I am at my goal 59 kgs, having lost 31 kgs.
I switched to a ketogenic / IF lifestyle about 8 months ago and I've lost 65 pounds. At some point I did experience hair loss. I have very long dark hair, and while it was never coming out in clumps, it was impossible not to notice it around the shower drain. I accepted it, moved on, and forgot about it. (Don't sweat the small stuff!)
It wasn't until watching this video that it occurred to me that I'm no longer seeing hair around the shower drain. 👍👍
Same for me. I lost 85lbs in 10 months. Now that my weight loss has slowed down greatly my hair loss has slowed down to a normal rate & my hair is back to normal. Plus, I weight 85lbs less!!! I'm one happy (& much healthier) gal!!!!
My hair has slowed down in turning Grey and is getting thicker since I started keto / Ketovore with high protein
This happened to me also
Me too. Nice side effect.
Same. The dead, gray hairs have fallen out and new hair is coming in. My eyebrows and eyelashes have also grown back. I'll never complain about having to pluck my eyebrows ever again!
It’s probably the protein. I was not able to do keto; it hurt my adrenals. I’ve had to go on a balanced macro diet, and I eat 150 grams of protein. My hair is getting a lot thicker.
@@stillwatersfarm8499 can I ask how you know ? I’m struggling so much ! I’m not losing weight, but I am losing hair !
I was keto most of my adult life due to diabetes but was still very overweight. When I went ketovore/carnivore my weight loss started rather rapidly. I lost 70lbs in the first year! Now my weight loss is much slower and any hair I lost in the first year has regrown & then some. Your hair will regrow. Now I'm down 85lbs, full head of hair and feel so much better. Don't let TEMPORARY hair loss scare you away.
I went low carb, sugar free. My hair got ridiculously thick. Ditto my eyelashes. The pre-op nurse at my cataract surgery thought I was wearing mascara.
Thank you Dr. Cywes! I am so glad you covered this issue of hoar loss!
Thank you Doc For yet another informative common sense talk!
THANK you very much. Your information is very important and helpful.
Dr.
Thank you doc! As always, you are sharing useful information in an understandable way. Your time and energy are much appreciated !
I find your information enormously helpful
Thank you Dr. Cywes for this very informative video, I have been worried about my hair loss but now I know better.
Good information thanks Doc!
Thank you, Dr Cywes !
I lost 20 lbs slowly doing low carb then transitioned somewhat naturally into keto and dropped another 20 lbs in about 6 weeks. Dramatic hair thinning at that point, at least 50% reduction and it took a year to come back. Appreciate this so much, I assumed I was lacking nutrients during my quick fat loss phase.
Another 5-star, tour de force video by Dr. Cywes. Wow! Every video he makes, whether the topic is directly relevant to my present situation or not, as absolutely packed with valuable insights that help me do this better today that yesterday.
I’ve lost 140 lbs over the last year on keto /carnivore, and yes my hair did thin a bit in the beginning. But it has come back nicely and is as thick as it was when I was in my 20’s.
Thank you, Dr Cywes for your video's. I have adopted a ketogenic lifestyle after sugar addiction. My partner is not doing keto, buth he combines a low carb real food approach with intermittent fasting. He has had male baldness since puberty. We noticed that when he adds in one 24h fast per week, that his hair grows back. And he's so proud of that.
Well, is this ever timely personally. I have been eating Keto 3 months now and just noticed in the last couple weeks that my hair is thinning. Since I have hyperthyroidism/Graves history that is currently in remission, I was becoming concerned that my thyroid was wonky. I have none of the other hyper symptoms I had when things were really bad, but after listening to this video I am entirely reassured and not panicked. My 6 month thyroid bloodwork is approaching anyhow but I surely appreciate being able to look at the long game after understanding better what’s going on. Probably one of the more impactful videos I have seen of yours. Thanks Doc for what you are doing here, keep up the great work!
Very helpful info, thanks
Cracks me up there is a hair regrowth product commercial during this video! 🤣
I think the bots pick up on the topic. I have noticed the same type of thing when watching other topics in different channels.
Great video Dr. Cywes!
Most point you're talking about were accurate in my case except... I've dropped carbs the cold turkey way. It wasn't painful for me no keto flu etc. The other thing - I went NUTS! Totally NUTS! And that helped me a lot - macadamia and brazil. I Went 80-95% animal products for almost 3 months. Then some salats were introduced.
I haven't lost any hair (lucky me) and I have all my hair 3 years later. They are thicker, stronger and shiny.
I try to eat 2-3 macadamia and brazil nuts on everyday basis.
You're doing great job to people in need, Stay safe mate!
My hair is still thinning. 2+ years Keto. Still very insulin resistant. This video gave me hope my hair could get thicker once I’m insulin sensitive. My first hair loss was during pregnancy 30+ years ago.
Another great video thank you - I was experiencing male pattern hair loss
as a female in my 50’s was not overweight but I do believe I was insulin resistant going keto was the best thing to happen to me and my hair has grown back dramatically - no pills, cream potions, lotions just healthy fats and real food thank you For all the work you do.
Hopefully I experience what you did...
Thanks for the information, Doc. I am 3 minths in to Keto diet.
Every time I limit carbs my hair falling more intense, I think it is because of the stress on the body.
Thank you!!!
Well when my husband and I first went on Keto, we cut out the carbs and yes have both lost weight and had hair loss which made me worry about it me from 62 kg to 50 kg. I would be more comfortable being an extra 5 kg more but feel much healthier for it. I am fasting for about 14 to 15 hrs and have a good breakfast of bacon and eggs plus Haloume cheese, half avocado and 2 slices of tomato but vary it and might have an omelet or scrambled eggs etc. The hair thinning which I did lose from the crown of my head is coming back but slowly as I have Hashomotos disease also so the reason going Keto was to treat this disease. Was diagnosed when I was 53 yrs old had to be wheat free and dairy free but back then was hard to find food that I could eat etc just found it difficult to stick to but also was prescribed natural troches for menopause symptoms which I was on for 10 yrs. Now I will be 70 this year so the more I find out about the foods can eat etc the more interested in keeping well and enjoy my food and telling others about it. Not all want to do this but thats up to them to ask and can help others and direct them to watch the videos to get the advice they need.
Its interesting to my how seriously some people are about their hair. My significant has been been a stylist who had a salon. Before she had to stop working she had several clients that would give up eating before they would give up their hair appointments.
Hey doc!
I actually heard that the actual opening of the follicle can expand to allow thicker hair through as the scalp becomes healthier causing unhealthy thin hair to “fall out in clumps”
I noticed when I switched my diet I had hair loss but it grew in a lot thicker and in places I once had very fine hair.
Can you do a video on 'All diets work, all diets fail'? Or did you just mean you eventually stop the diet and revert back to old eating habits? I was a little startled to hear you say keto will fail.
I had hair loss in the beginning, but it came back and was already thick. I started working with kids in a new job (I don't have my own kids) this last year, and my hair has NEVER been this grey!!! Haha! That has to be normal too? Kids turn us grey too!
I don't have kids either. But when my mom was alive I got more grey hair each time she was hospitalized, which was pretty often. I even told her so. She smiled and said it was karma & that I gave her some grey hair when I was little. I was a very active little girl.
I've not experienced any hair thinning on LCHF but my weight loss isn't rapid after the first two weeks of water weight. Having some temporary hair thinning while eating LCHF seems acceptable to me given the health benefits I've noticed in the past few months.
My wife is vegan and she goes through hair thinning phases at times but it always grows back. What I've noticed is when she drops the vegan junk food and sticks to mainly whole foods is when her hair thinning starts but it doesn't last long. I just have to be mindful of our plumbing during those times :D
Dear Dr Sywes 👍 video, thanks 👍. I wanted to add that eating 🐠 fish is great. I had a 🐈 and gave him a lb of 🐟 twice a week and my kittens fur was thick and shiny🐈🤗
You are amazing! Love your common sense approach. Does this explain why someone with Hashimotos has hair loss? I know it is an autoimmune disease.
Oh cr*p…
I just spent $50 on collagen and biotin to help correct hair loss from going ketovore .😨
Oh well… At least now I understand that I must be patient for my hair to regrow.
Thanks Doc!!!😄🙋♀️
Biotin works
And avoid wallet biopsy
@@ericojonx 16:46
Well, collagen is helping me with bones and tendons as I age. Or, at least, that's my belief. If I'm wasting money, so be it.
I started Keto in summer 2020, and at that time my 95 year old mother also had a stroke, she survived but had terrible brain damage. The stress of both dealing with her new living requirements, especially during covid lock-down, and losing significant weight (66 pounds/30 kg) resulted in losing a lot of hair. A lot of it has grown back, but I still feel like it hasn't returned to its previous thickness. Perhaps, the on-going stress of planning her funeral, and other estate business over the 2 following years has kept the stress levels higher than normal, and I will get more hair.
I was expecting “be the tortoise, not the hare,” but the good doctor has avoided hare/hair confusion…
I called your office to get a consult. However no one has called me back and that was a week ago!
Hi doc, love your videos ! I started keto in Feb, lost 25 lbs then hit a stall in April , that is continuing. A few weeks ago, I started losing my hair too. It’s too late to go back but it’s pretty thin ( noticeable ,) I am always in ketosis ( I check blood daily , ) but don’t know why I’m
Not losing weight ? I also workout everyday. I’m doing fat 75% protein 20, and carbs 5 since the hair fall I’ve upped my calories from 1100ish to 1800 . I eat lots of fish, eggs and avocado like you mentioned . I’m wondering if keto just isn’t for me ? I have been very consistent. Thank you for your help 🙏🏻
Thanks doc for all this info, it really helped me a lot! I've been doing keto & if for a year now. I lost quite a bit of weight in the beginning, but put on about 18 pounds in the last 5 months, not doing anything different. I'm also struggling with sleep, I feel my cortisol levels are keeping me restless at night. Have you any advice for me please? Thank you 🙂
Grass fed butter will decrease your cortisol dramatically, just have a little with a couple of walnuts everyone you feel “stressed”.
Due to unknown very low D vitamin I had multiple virus infections over the whole year, starting with covid that all caused hair loss (that was all discovered afterwards).
My dermatogist prescribed mynoxidil and it helped a lot. Of course that new hair is shorter and it takes time to grow.
I started keto half a year prior to all that and I was glad to already be fat adapted when all of that hit.
Now several years later my eyelashes and brows are thicker than ever, I attributed that to minoxidil but I'm not taking it anymore for a long time. I only spotted couple of gray brows. F57. Btw I never gave up dark chocolate.
Dr. Cywes is awesome, if you have the opportunity to use him this is your go to guy don’t even consider anybody else he has the training and the technique that will make your Surgery Successful, his skill level is second to none
Thank you - I may not always like what you have to say but guess what - I am finally starting to lose weight!
As I'm watching this a hair loss product Ad pops up🙄
Are those “look-a-likes” you mentioned at 7:26 the keto desserts we make with the sugar substitutes (erythritol, monkfruit, allulose, etc)? Because I am using those, along with almond flour and the other keto baking supplies. I haven’t wanted to give up my dessert habit, although I AM down 90# in the 10 months since I’ve started my LCHF ketogenic lifestyle.
I lost nearly half of my hair early last year after surviving COVID (caught it long before I was eligible for a vaccine) and endured more stress and grief than I thought was possible for a person to endure. I was about a week away from going G.I. Jane, but the growth cycle finally kicked in. This year, I'm trying to clean up my life style (as little sugar and starch as possible and no processed food) and I had to undergo a total hysterectomy because of uterine cancer. I was lucky because I got to skip chemotherapy and only had to endure a handful of sessions of brachytherapy. I have lost a good bit of weight and I'm back to losing hair at an alarming rate (thanks in part, too, to a total loss of estrogen). Your insights give me hope that it might grow back in time.
He's right about hair loss supplements. I spent over $400 on "Dr." Berg's hair loss supplement, took it as directed for months, and there was no improvement. I tried to post a review on his website, but they don't post the negative reviews.
I started the Keto diet almost a year ago, and lost 30 pounds, but at about the same time I also began menopause. So I'm not sure which is the cause of my extreme hair loss.
In the same boat..,2 year's later I now have receding hair lines like a man...
Almost all weight loss leads to hair loss. It should come back with enough protein, especially eggs. A drop of Lugol's 2 percent iodine a day helps as well, regrowth near the temple area.
My hair has balded on my head legs and arms before I started keto, been on keto for 2.5 years but hair is gone.
Hello daar, uit die mooiste Namibië! I'm a 42 y/o woman and in great shape. Been Keto for 3 years and changed to Carnivore last 2 months. Did not start Keto for weight loss. Did it because I'm a Carbaholic! Hair fell out before Keto, during Keto and Carnivore. Also doing two meals a day (skipping breakfast) Enige raad asb ???
Someone asked Gene Roddenberry why he chose Patrick Stewart for the part of captain Picard, after all in the 24th century the problem of hair loss would have been solved, right? He replied: "I think in the 24th century no one will care :D"
With great appreciation by Sir Stewart, by the way.
I did keto diet back in 2018 and my hair started to fall out like crazy. I stopped the diet, gained the weight back and now i am doing carnivore hoping to heal my body. My hair never stopped falling out though. It is really thin now. It makes sense that maybe the inflammation is causing my heir loss. Hopefully carnivore diet helps.
Did the carnivore help your hair?
It looks like every single aspect of our body is affected by the low carb ketogenic diet. Been on this for 3 years now. Noticed my body hair has grown, but no sign of the hair returning on my head.
I have been doing carnivore for 7 months and just lately I noticed that the hair is staying in my head. There's almost no hairs in the sink etc. Thanks for this explanation. My hypothyroidism has also improved, now I am really wondering if the outer thirds of my eyebrows will grow back.
Mine did... and the outer eyebrow had been gone for over 20 years!
Yes for me it did
ive been on lazy Keto for 6 months lost 30 lbs i notice recently when i run my hand over my hair i see a few hairs fall off.
9 months....lost 55 lbs, but hair not recovering :(. But might be my continued thyroid issues
Keto since 2018 w/o any probs. Keto through CA. Hair came back darker but same texture/thickness. After a year on aromatase inhibitor hair is falling out, 2 bald patches and hair is texture of cheap doll hair. Is it meds, is it keto? I wish it would all fall out entirely again and the maintenance free.
It’s still a yo-yo at the moment with me, hair is getting thinner and less, more concerned about the health and weight than my hair.
toward the end of the vido you briefly say 't3' would you say more about t3 in a new video on hair loss.
Wallet Biopsy 🤣😂🤣
My hair loss in 5 month in low carb but my problem is my uric acid is so high what is the best food?
My hair fell out long before keto
How long does it take tho?
After i took a biotin, everything improved!
hairloss yes with keto.
it's been 4 years and mine hasn't stopped falling out
Check thyroid
Take iodine drops from Lugols. 2% or 5%.
Anyone here losing/lost 200/300 hairs daily from keto? 4 months in and this is traumatic! 😢
I know it takes months to re-thicken but when does the shedding stop?
Also, I went keto/carnivore to fix Seborrheic Dermatitis, not make it worse or lose weight as I'm athletic, and believe me, it's worse than it's ever been.
Anyone the same?
Is Seborrheic Dermatitis not appropriate for a high fat diet?
Btw, seeing as I have you 😂. I had a few beers this weekend after months and quite literally felt morbid depression the next day. Never experienced anything like that before. Have I just destroyed the biome/enzyme capable of handling this? This is equally traumatic for an Irish man 😂
My Dr. Has given me Spironolactone. What do you think of that?
I love my eggs and eat beef liver once every two weeks. :)
Since starting Keto, menopause and fasting i have loat alot of hair....i now have receding hair lines like a man.....its not getting any better after 2 years.....not happy 😢
Are you still losing weight? For me, my hair stopped falling out when my weight loss slowed to a near standstill
Oh well, too late, I cut all. carbs overnight and went carnivore! That was 9 weeks ago and I seem to have a ton of baby hairs now. I did really up my fat. Lots of fatty meat and butter.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Could this also explain postpartum hairloss? (Or are other factors at work?) I've had it will all my kids but this last time it was hardly significant since it was the first pregnancy I did carnivore and didn't gain any weight (besides the baby's.)
Obviously there are so many products pushed at new moms for hairloss. Seems predatory.
Any thoughts on hair loss in cycles... I'm keto...BUT also have lupus? Just keep a balanced keto diet and hope for the best more or less?
personally I would do keto consistently until your lupus is really controlled (if it gets there) and then add in fruits every day when their in season - i believe diet should cycle with the seasons as it would have before refrigeration. Meat/fat all year long - fruit for a few months in the summer/fall, berries at the same time... then back to keto.
just my 0.02
@@WideAwakeHuman that's roughly where I'm at right now! The kids and I just got a single bare root Raspberry bush too! More for the novelty than anything else! But can't get lower food miles than your backyard!
Nearly three years ketovore and still loosing hair. I was seeing some hair growth then got the vaccine, start losing it again. I am 72 and lost 75 pounds. I eat 99% protein. So I am not very happy at this loss. I also have Hashimotos
yeah the jabs are poison - be glad all it caused was possible accelerated hair loss.
If you're eating 99% protein, adding more healthy fat would probably help regrow hair.
Ketovore did nothing for youe hashimoto ?
@@reno720 yes ketovore greatly improved the symptoms, but since I received the vaccine, they have returned. It has been 7 months since the jab and some of the issues persist. Going total carnivore this month, so I will see what happens.
@@pursuehealth940 I eat protein with the natural fat.
Biotin is amazing BECAUSE it works! When I can take a supplement and see for myself the direct result of taking it, I’ll take it. It’s inexpensive and no one is pushing plain Biotin so no wallet biopsies there. I have very very slow growing hair. I’ve been taking biotin for quite some time and I get compliments now on how long it’s getting. One lady even asked if I had extensions! That’s enough hard proof for me.
Oddly I noticed my hair shedding WHILE I was supplementing with biotin. It freaked me out so I stopped.
Dear Dr Sywes be careful with supplement Glucosamine/ Chondroitin because I treated myself with arthritis and lost my hair dramatically. Thanks 🙏 God I stopped taking that supplement and saved my rest of the hair. Biotin can help hair regrowth also.
He just told you in this video Biotin is junk.
For hairloss take finasteride and Minoxidile
Fin has horrible side effects, never take that garbage. Oral Minoxidil works and is a great option, after 3-4 months on Keto, when your over the Keto hairloss.
Saw Palmetto does the same thing as Fin without side effects.
❤️🇨🇦
Why would someone lose all their body hair….not on head but everywhere else?
Happened to me after stressful event and after receiving steroid injection in a joint and an oral steroid pack. My leg hair disappeared, and in other places. It returned though.
You might experience that from low thyroid function.
Always wanted to go bald, grow out a dread skullet, & develope long eyebrows. Look like a scary psycho.
My diet as a youth was so terrible. I lost my hair starting at 21 years old and often wondered if things would've been different if I grew up with a healthy diet and lifestyle. But then I see drug addicts and alcoholics or whatever with full heads of hair and I'm reminded it's hereditary genetics
The jabs sure do!
Lets lift up that shirt doc and show that keto bod. Proof is in the pudding.
Lol
Dang bro you've got one heck of a playlist compiled on your channel 🔥🔥🔥 Great taste in Jamz.
