The video discusses 12 home remedies to prevent and regrow hair. It begins by explaining that fluoride in water can cause hair loss and hypothyroid conditions. To avoid this, the speaker suggests using a shower head that filters out fluoride. The video also warns against using shampoos with sulfates, as they can destroy hair protein.
The video then delves into the mechanism of hair loss, explaining that most top hair loss medications work by blocking an enzyme that inhibits DHT, a powerful form of testosterone that can burn out hair follicles. The speaker suggests natural alternatives to these medications, including onion juice, green tea, rosemary oil, zinc, apple cider vinegar, a balanced diet, and increased vitamin D.
The video also discusses the effects of the ketogenic diet on hair loss, suggesting that a lack of protein could be the cause. It recommends increasing protein intake and consuming foods high in trace minerals and B vitamins.
The video also mentions the role of selenium in supporting a hypothyroid condition, and how consuming Brazil nuts, seafood, and seaweed can help. It warns against high estrogen levels, which can inhibit thyroid function, and suggests avoiding gluten for those with Hashimoto's disease.
The video concludes by recommending increased vitamin D intake, more sleep, and exercise to reduce stress. It also suggests consuming silica-rich water, understanding the relationship between insulin and androgens in women with polycystic ovarian syndrome, and increasing biotin intake through foods like sauerkraut.
The video also provides links to specific videos on topics like hair loss, cortisol, and a receding hairline.
