Garlic to Reduce Shedding



For the past month, I have been experiencing more than normal amount of shedding. I tried my shedding remedy, using Aubrey Organic GPB Conditioner. This did not work. This use to work in the summer, but the winter... LAWDY LAWDY!!  has not been kind to my hair. Currently, I have my hair in a protective style and I am going to start trying this new remedy and see if it helps.

What is this new remedy?

Adding Garlic in my regimen; by adding in my deep conditioner and/or taking garlic pills and/or consuming garlic naturally.

Why Garlic?

Well, researching help for reducing shedding, garlic treatments kept on coming up. There was the one where the lady mixed it with black tea and infused in Extra Virgin Olive Oil.... and then there was the one where another lady used garlic oil from pills and pour on her scalp. 

Garlic helps to regenerate cells and is antibacterial, antifungal, and antiviral. It also contains sulfur and the allicin which helps in reducing shedding.

While my hair is in this protective style for the next 2 weeks, I will be doing the following:
Daily, I will take a 1 teaspoon of minced garlic and chase down with some lovely OJ (Orange juice).  preferably at night!! No garlic breath.


I will share in future posts if this works or not.

Bottoms up!!

Does having lots of hair on your arm means long hair on your head?

Image
  No, having a lot of hair on your arms doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll have long hair on your head. Hair growth patterns, thickness, and length on different parts of the body are influenced by factors such as genetics, hormones, and individual biology. For example: • Hair on arms is usually vellus or terminal hair, which grows to a certain length and then stops. • Scalp hair grows continuously in a cycle (anagen, catagen, telogen phases), allowing it to become much longer than body hair. While genetics may influence both arm and scalp hair characteristics, they don’t directly determine the length of one based on the other.

Should You Take Vitamin D if you do not have a deficiency? Taking vitamin D without a deficiency is generally unnecessary for most people, but it depends on your health, lifestyle, and location. Here’s a breakdown: When Supplementing Might Be Helpful 1. Limited Sun Exposure: If you live in areas with little sunlight (especially in winter) or spend most of your time indoors, you might not get enough vitamin D from sunlight, even if you’re not deficient. 2. Certain Health Conditions: People with osteoporosis, certain autoimmune conditions, or chronic illnesses may benefit from maintaining optimal (not just baseline) vitamin D levels. 3. Dietary Deficiency: If your diet lacks vitamin D-rich foods (e.g., fatty fish, fortified milk, or eggs), sup...
