Overall, hair loss in men seems to be socially acceptable, whereas in women, it seems not to be as socially acceptable. Therefore, having available hair loss prevention and treatment products may help those women who are suffering from hair loss gain a sense of relief. Even as hair loss in women becomes known – becomes a common thing in society as many women suffer from hair loss – it may not reach same socially accepted standard as male baldness and hair loss. The outcome, then, being that many of these women with hair loss will find means to treat this condition, rather than ignore issue. Since majority of hair loss in women is reversible, finding treatment and dealing with hair loss is generally a relatively easy task for women; and therefore, in most cases, they do not have to face notion of becoming bald versus men who may not be able to reverse hair loss.

With multiple types of treatment and prevention of hair loss, along with fact that most cases of hair loss in women are reversible, many women are able to overcome hair loss, or at least attempt to overcome hair loss. Therefore hair loss in women may be a temporary condition, occurring during different phases of life – from young adulthood to old age – and may be caused by different sources – hormonal or heredity. Generally, women dealing with hair loss are doing so due to hormones and these women are able to find treatment. Those women suffering with hair loss due to genes may have a more difficult time in preventing hair loss. No matter cause of hair loss certain actions may be taken to prevent further damage to hair, including using hair chemicals and tools, like hair dryers and curling irons, in moderation. Seeing as there are multiple factors in maintaining a healthy head of hair, women attempting to avoid or treat hair loss would benefit to watch out for harmful actions, like high stress and hair chemicals.

For Christmas of 1996 I determined to begin taking zinc and selenium daily beginning about mid-November and on thru Christmas. The next time I got sick in any way was for Christmas 2001, when I was running a fever alternating with chills. But…..no one around me could tell I was sick, I didn’t have sniffles or a red nose, nor did I lose my voice. To all outward appearances I looked and acted completely healthy. And while those around me catching this particular flu bug were sick for up to a week, mine lasted only two days and I was over it. Since 1995 illness, 2001 is only time I have been sick during Christmas season, yet I meet thousands of children and adults and must come into contact with every possible contagious germ out there.

So, to summarize, during year I take 2000 units of vitamin C daily, 500 units of vitamin E weekly and 50 mg of selenium and zinc weekly. Since 2001 I have added 50 mg of magnesium and potassium weekly. And, during Christmas season, beginning in mid-November, I up this to 50 mg of zinc, selenium and magnesium daily, at least 5 days a week, and potassium at least twice weekly.

What works for me may work for you; but idea is sound. You may have to determine your own particular health needs, vary this regimen to suit your body requirements. But when you do find correct supplements you, too, will enjoy good health I enjoy. And for most people, zinc and selenium are not only building blocks of life but cancer fighting elements as well.

As for vitamins C and E, they are ones your body cannot synthesize so you must give your body a new supply daily. The beauty of them is that what your body does not use is simply sluffed off in urine and next day you need a new supply. Remember also that vitamins C and E are each very powerful anti-oxidants. For a very few people, however, it is possible to develop vitamin C or E poisoning – not serious in most cases and dropping your intake cures it quickly. This reaction is extremely rare, not more than 1 instance in 10,000 cases (I have personally only heard of it, and never known a case firsthand, yet I have shared above with literally thousands of people already).

To go along with these supplements, you need to both live a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise, and eat a healthy diet. Improved digestion is likely very first step to better health and especially if you use or have used antibiotics you need to re-infuse your beneficial body flora and fauna – those enzymes absolutely essential to good digestion, proper nutritional absorption and good health. One of best ways to do this is by using an organic greens supplement.

Just about any 100 percent organic greens supplement will do. However, they are rare. I have only found one that is truly 100 percent organic, and that is Bio 88+ (Plus). It is derived from both ancient and modern grains (such as wheat-grass) and from tropical and temperate zone fruits and vegetables. It is totally vegetarian based from 88 certified organic food sources plus it provides 15 proprietary probiotics. Email Loring directly for a .pdf brochure on Bio 88+ (Plus).
