Collagen for excessive hair shedding
I have recommended Absolute Collagen in conjunction with a healthy diet change to many of my patients over the past month to help them recover healthy strong beautiful hair and have also seen a number of patients who have taken this supplement for the past 6 months and are delighted with the change in their hair health.
The excessive hair shedding has ceased and a normal growth cycle has resumed.
Firstly it is normal to shed some hair every day, we naturally shed around 100 hairs per day, when the shedding becomes very noticeable in the shower, brush, on your clothes or blocking the vacuum you know that you have a problem, but what can you do?
As a Trichologist I am looking at clinical signs, listening to your symptoms and identifying the cause of the excessive shedding throughout the consultation, which is key to getting the correct treatment plan for each individual.
In many cases diet and stress have a huge part to play in excessive hair shedding, with blood tests providing vital information on what is and isn’t supporting healthy hair and scalp from within.
Protein is vital to a normal healthy hair growth cycle, yet in talking to many of my patients I find out that Protein is the one thing that many are not consuming enough of and this in essence is literally starving the hair of the vital nutrition it needs to maintain its normal growing and shedding cycle.
Absolute Collagen offers is rich in antioxidants which prevent free radical damage to our body’s cells, Scientists in Japan in 2016 found that reduced levels of collagen in the stem cells next to the hair follicle caused more hair to be shed, in my study of Absolute Collagen we recorded a significant reduction in excess hair shedding when using this amazing supplement.
