The other issue of hair loss is the problem of collagen and copper and iron utilization which may reduce some free heavy metals, and the vitamin C sodium ascorbate or perhaps vitamin C rose hips 1000 mg x 2 times a day, for about 5 days out of a week should stop hair losses from getting to the extreme. At least it worked for me quite well. If I left anything else, it might be that I will have to increase my immunity and circulation of scalp by taking at least 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda in 1/2 glass of water twice a day.
However, I would much prefer to take a 2 tablespoons of freshly squeezed lime juice, plus 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda in 1/2 glass of water taken twice a day. The citrate reaction, reduces the serum calcium, which tends to clog body tissues, resulting in poor circulation. One additional remedy that may also help is to reduce certain fatty foods (rich foods with vegetable oils) and sugar, while taking 1 tablespoon of granulated lecithin a day.
Hopefully this should solve some of the cause. The others that I have not covered but may be relevant are molybdenum (anti-fungal), lack of iodine, and the nasty habit of eating cassava derived foods, which causes iodine deficiency since it is rich in thiocyanate, and hence can result in other symptoms, of lowered immunity resulting in hair loss too.
