TOO MUCH STRESS CAN CAUSE HAIR LOSS

Keeping yourself fit and healthy not only makes you feel good, it will make you live longer too. Having regular exercise, eating a proper diet and taking your vitamins daily is one of the basics to keep yourself in good condition. But did you know that going out and enjoying yourself is part of keeping yourself healthy too?

Every day we wake up early in the morning to go to work and go back home late in the afternoon or evening. This is done daily, Mondays through Fridays – some jobs go thru the weekend if unfinished work needs to be done. Not only that, think about the stress you’re going through at work. Stress can cause hormonal or physiological imbalance, and this isn’t good for your body. That’s why some people get a nervous breakdowns, heart attacks, or hair loss just because of stress.

Can stress cause hair loss? Definitely, stress related hair loss can be found in men, women and children. The internal changes in the body force the hair to fall out. Hair loss can be in patches or may present as generalized hair thinning. This type of hair loss is called telogen effluvium, where all hair somehow reverts to the telogen (resting) stage of the normal hair growth cycle. The telogen stage is the stage where hair falls out. Normally, only 10% of hair is in this stage but due to stress, almost all hair turns to this stage.
Now don’t worry, this type of hair loss is temporary. Therefore, it is important to take it easy and relax to avoid telogen effluvium. To help stimulate your hair to grow back healthy, it’s suggested to use a nutrient rich shampoo like Nisim Shampoo and Conditioner. These special hair treatments contain natural herb extracts, amino acids and B-complex vitamins that help rejuvenate hair growth to stop you from losing hair.
