How to cure alopecia..?

Namaste Ashish khudania

Healthy hair can be achieved by cleansing yourself of all toxic deposits internally.The hair that you have is the reflection of the internal status of your body. How can you help your body cleanse internally?

I would say we must look into what things we should remove from our diet to improve our overall health quality.

Foods to be removed

1 All packaged and processed outside food-like substances.

2 Refined flour and refined oil

3 All types of stimulants like tea and coffee. If you drink alcohol then that too must be stopped.

4 All overcooked, deep-fried oily food.

5 Dairy or any other animal products 

Foods to be included

1 Fresh locally grown seasonal fruits - 50% of daily intake

2 Fresh seasonal vegetables and greens - 35% of daily intake

3 Grains - soaked or sprouted or steamed - 10 % of daily intake

4 soaked nuts and seeds - 5% of daily intake

And understand this - it is not only the food that influences your quality of blood but many other things too matter equally.

1 Learn Pranayam and yoga for relaxing your mind, improving your flexibility and activating your lymphatic system.

2 Get good sun exposure either in the early hours of the morning or a couple of hours before sunset.

3 Get in touch with Mother Earth. Do some gardening with your hands or at least walk barefoot on sand or mud. Sit in parks or lie on the ground or lawns and relax.

4 Keep an eye on your bowel movement. See to it that your bowels are always functioning normally. Eliminate larger quantities than what you eat.

5 Rest and relax well. Sleep in the earlier part of the night and sleep through the night. Wake up before or with the sun.

6 Be well hydrated. Consume a lot of juicy fruits veggies and greens to hydrate yourself well.

7 Get your body moving, do yoga or participate in any outdoor sport, walk or do some gardening. Moving your body will support the removal of toxins and free flow of vitality

8 Be happy always. Don’t let life’s negativities to bog you down. Always be positive.

Follow these principles and as you go on eliminating toxins and discarding all damaged unhealthy tissues you will start seeing a great change in your overall health.

There are more things that you can do to improve your hair health externally. Stop using all chemical based, shampoos, soaps, creams etc, neither on your scalp nor anywhere else on your skin.

The best hair product would be something that you could get from nature. I prepare a powder of shikakai and other things and use it as a hair wash.

Shikakai powder

Shikakai 1 kg

Dry amla 200 GMs

Green moong 200 GMs

Rice 200 GMs

Ritha 50 GMs

Fenugreek seeds 200 GMs

Get this ground at the flour mill and use a little, make a passer by adding water and use it every time you wash your hair.

As for conditioning I either use fresh aloe Vera gel or a decoction of hibiscus flowers.

Cold pressed Coconut oil usage is also good on a regular basis.

Be happy be healthy always

Alopecia is a very common disorder caused due to various reasons. Alopecia is a generic term and could be classified into various types Alopecia totalis which means complete loss of hair on the scalp, alopecia universalis which means hair loss on the entire body. Most common is a milder variety known as Alopecia arealis where there are patches of hair loss in small patches caused due to various causes right from genetics, excess side effects of some medications or some skin disorders like psoriasis or dandruff etc. This condition might affect anyone irrespective of gender or age and sometimes hard water or presence of some pesticides in ground water could be some of the reasons for this condition.

Some simple steps to manage this condition:

• Onion – Applying onion over the affected area could enhance the growth of new hair follicules and also improve the blood circulation enhancing the nutrition and nourishment of affected area
• Coconut Oil – Freshly extracted coconut milk and then heated to oil could also stimulate the hair growth when applied over the affected area
• Honey – Slather some honey over the affected area could enhance the growth of the hair follicles in the affected area
• Garlic application – Cloves of garlic which are rich in sulphur, zinc and calcium when appied over the affected area could work wonders
• Fenugreek – A simple kitchen ingredient could work wonders if applied over the area where hair growth is stimulated as it blocks the synthesis of chemicals which stops the hair growth.
• Fresh Aloe Vera Gel – Cut a fresh leaf of aloe vera and apply the gelly part for 15 – 20 mins before rinsing it and this could also prevent the hair loss
• Multi-petal hibiscus flower- Fresh flowers made into paste and applied and rinse the paste off after 20-30 minutes could work wonders as well
• Curry leaves and Mehendi leaves – Applying these two leaves made into a paste could be a great herbal remedy to the problem

Avoid stress and also take proper sleep which could substantially be an effective tool to manage this problem. Yoga is effective mode of practice to reduce stress

Have a bland diet which are less in oil, spices and artificial ingredients
