Guest guest Posted October 16, 2007 Report Share Posted October 16, 2007 Rogaine for women works well. And it especially works better for women who actually have hair to rub it into as it needs to attach to the hair follicles. God bless, Beth --------------------------------- Tonight's top picks.

Guest guest Posted October 24, 2007 Report Share Posted October 24, 2007 And if I'm not mistaken, starvation is NOT part of the MGB plan! If we're eating right post-op, then we are not starving. This is the wonderful thing about the MGB; you don't have to diet, but you DO have to eat right. If you're still a ways from your goal weight, don't cut waaaaay back on your calories, but do review the calories you're taking in. Protein first, then veggies, then carbs. That might be the first revision, before you consider a surgical revision. Just a thought. :-) Kathy in VA 7/6/06 297/157 -------------- Original message -------------- From: NCGorgeous1963@... 10/22/2007, miamicat1@... writes: << Hair loss is part of starvation, get used to it and get over it.

Guest guest Posted November 9, 2007 Report Share Posted November 9, 2007 Hi Anne, If you have ruled out Hypothyroid (search the QXCI, it certainly can be a huge stress problem. I have helped women with hair loss regain it by addressing the thyroid. Also, I would refer you to Dr. Alistair Bourne's protocol for Alopecia. Phil hair loss Several clients have inquired as to how effective the QXCI is in addressing hair loss. And I, honestly, don't know. Can anyone help? Clients are post-menopausal; lost hair during menopause and have continued to do so, years later; are in their 60's and in fairly good health. I am aware of a thyroid connection, but they offer no sx's or complaints. Can anyone provide direction, or some insights, on how/where to address this issue. I remain most appreciative your help and your interest. Anne Zipkes Hot Springs, AR ............................................. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 11, 2007 Report Share Posted November 11, 2007 Hair loss can be the following 1. low protein, 2. low oils, 3. low adrenals, 4. low thyroid, 5. during the menopause low progesterone 6. high chemicals and body products. A hormone test is vital address all of these. To check thyroid take pulse and temperature.

Guest guest Posted November 14, 2007 Report Share Posted November 14, 2007 Have to jump in here and say something. I see this on my other lists as well, so it's not just EPFX users that are doing this. BEFORE I take any kind of supplement...I myself would want to know WHAT is the underlying issue causing the problem. Supplements are great and they help...but without knowing what was causing the problem to begin with...how do you know it is really going to help? Will it stop or reduce those issues? How can you know that answer without knowing the originating cause? We have a great device and therapies available at our fingertips. If we are using it like it was supposed to be used...we would know this answer and then know the correct supplement " If Needed " to use as a take home therapy. And there are excellent supplements out there that really do work. But to offer supplements without that information before hand to me is like suggesting an asprin for an enurysm. Neither is going to help the other. Just my 2 cents.

Guest guest Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 I too am losing some hair, just recently. I started drinking Mona Vie because my neighbor sells it and it seems to be helping so far. I am also planning to get a slight unfill which should allow me to eat more salads and protein etc. Then, I am hoping that will help. I will be anxious to see what people post about this.

Guest guest Posted November 19, 2007 Report Share Posted November 19, 2007 , if you are loosing hair, get more protien! Maybe even do a few shakes a day. And the shampoo that I have found (I am a hairdresser) is Nioxin. they have a good formula for stopping the loss and getting it going again. But internal is most important. get boitin and lots of protien and make sure you are getting enough vitamins too! :-) take care, hope that helps, > > Hello all, been a lil while since Ive posted.

Guest guest Posted November 20, 2007 Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 Good point . As a reminder: in many states, including Florida, it is illegal to recommend or prescribe a dietary supplement unless you are a LICENSED nutritionist or dietician. Un- licensed practitioners using the SCIO to analyze and recommend supplements is illegal in many states. See my web site www.epfx-scio-info.com for some cautionary advice on this subject.
