I’ve been poking around the idea that our diets could be influencing DHT levels in more ways than we think. For example, could high glycemic foods be exacerbating hair loss through increased insulin resistance? I’m toying with the idea of tweaking my diet to see if it makes a difference. Has anyone here tried something similar and seen any changes?
I’ve definitely noticed a link between diet and hair health, especially when it comes to DHT. Cutting back on high glycemic foods like refined sugars and white bread has made a noticeable difference for me. I think it’s all about reducing inflammation and balancing hormones. I’ve also been focusing on gut health by incorporating more probiotics and fiber, which seems to help with overall hormonal balance. Worth a try if you’re looking to tweak your diet!
Totally agree. I cut out a lot of processed crap and upped my omega-3s and greens, and my hair’s been looking a lot healthier. Gut health’s a big deal too—adding in more fermented stuff like kimchi and kefir has been a game changer for me.
