Guest guest Posted October 30, 2003 Report Share Posted October 30, 2003 This is a paragraph from an article by Dr. Vaughn in Florida, from his website www.surgicalweightcontrol.com. I don't agree with everything in the article, but this is the first I have heard about a cause of hair loss. " Fats Obviously, we expect your body to use your stored fat as energy. However, there are some " essential " fats that cannot be synthesized and may need to be supplemented. These are linoleic acid and linolenic acid, necessary for inflammatory and immune responses. A deficiency is often seen as inflamed itchy skin and hair loss. " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
