In grocery stores and hair solutions centers, I often see those shampoo, conditioner and hair treatment to help solve thinning of hair. Question, are they really effective? Main causes of hair loss are genetics, extreme illness (e.g. thyroid glands not working properly or effect of chemotherapy), stress, starvation, fungal infection and scalp damages (e.g. caused by bleaching, perming, etc.) which have not been taken care of for long.
These lead to excessive hair fall, reclining of the hair line, thinning of hair and ultimately bald spots and full baldness. In this article, you will learn how ashitaba leaves or “tomorrow leaves” help to prevent hair problems.
What accounts for hair loss and hair growth?
Itโs perfectly normal if you are losing like 50 to 100 hair strands a day. My mom always scolds me whenever she sees hair on the floor. I even have blogged about it and you may read the post here. Point is that you will inevitably see your hair around youโin your brush or comb, in the shower or bathroom floor, and on your clothes. This is because our cells die and grow every day. So to provide new room for the new hair strands to grow, the older hair strands fall out.
However, for some people, only a few strands of hair replace the old one. Hair for them does not start growing as fast, and this accounts to the thinning of hair. Worse is when fewer hairs grow all over the scalp and they lose hair in spots that will be called and seen as โbald spots.โ
If you already have bald spots (either at the top of your head or below near the back of the neck), then it may not be easy to treat and grow your hair on that spot all over again. But if you see that youโre just starting to have bald spots (hair gets thinner at certain areas), you still stand a chance!
What Ashitaba Can Do For Your Hair
Ashitaba or tomorrows leaf somehow is magical because the plant produces at least a leaf every day. When you take one out today, you will see another one blossomed and ready for harvest the next day. Can you relate the same pattern to your scalp?
Sure, you can!
Ashitaba has fast regeneration properties and its sap can be used as a tonic for thinning hair.
Ashitaba moisturizes and lubricates your scalp, promoting natural hair growth that result to shiny, fuller and stronger hair. You can try it as a green drink for it has no caffeine and low amount of calories. When you drink one cup of ashitaba per day which is about 1.5 grams, your scalp will be healthier thereby enhancing hair reborn. When you already are seeing symptoms of thinning hair and other hair problems, you should take about two to three cups daily to help remedy your problem at once.
There can be so many products in the market advocating for the same thing. But with ashitaba, we have already seen the effects in our old (elderly) friends who have tried taking this healthy drink. And the effects are simply amazing!
This gives hope to those who are losing hair…
They should try this product out… ๐
As we all age, 'the reappearance of new hair' event gradually slows down. This observable fact is more evident in men than women, whose 'male-pattern baldness is genetically determined and can begin as early as age 20. So I can also advise my boyfriend to try this pala hehe.
Wonderful product. This will help those people who's suffering fro hairfall. This is actually my first time to hear about it.
The regenerative properties is impressive. This can really help those who have hair-loss problems or those wanting thicker hair.
Yes. If your hair loss is caused by a deficiency, changing your diet or taking a multivitamin and herbal supplement like ashitaba might be a helpful hair loss treatment option. Vitamin B6 is also counted as important if you are a hair loss sufferer, as are iron and zinc. Eat protein-rich foods and amino acids to fight hair loss.
This is my grandpa's problem. His hair is half gone na but he doesn't care about it anymore. Sabi nya kasi, he's too old na to worry about hair loss! Hehe!!
Ohh haha anyway it's good for him to know that ashitaba contains minerals and other nutrients that promote hair recovery and rehabilitation. (Never too old to learn new info)
Aside from the hair growth, it is also good to have a sturdier and firmer hair.
There are a number of benefits of ashitaba. The benefits are not just limited to health but also extend up to beauty treatments. This herb is an effective beauty treatment for skin as well as hair.
hair loss was japanesse men anxiety! some of my friends always struggle this problem of getting bald even if still young to be with! i will try to recommend your blog to them! thanks!
Hair loss is a great problem and it's very common. There are many causes behind it. Some are physical or emotional stress, surgery, chemical treatments, etc.
Ashitaba like aloe vera can help your friends.
I'm suffering from severe hair fall. I'm thinking if this can be of help for me. Will research more about this. Thanks for sharing!
Maybe your shampoo contains super strong ingredients that do not match the pH balance or level of your scalp? Hmmm yeah, you're welcome to take a good read in this blog! ๐
I don't know what Ashitaba is. Do we have the same plans here in the Philippines?
Plans? I don't think ashitaba has established popularity yet in our country although this plant has once been featured on a TV program and some articles in major newspapers.
What a wonder med plant! I am already experiencing some falling hair. I should have used this to avoid further falling of my hair.
Aside from taking ashitaba, you can also carefully watch your diet. Keep it balanced – eat protein and calcium-rich foods. Food and supplements to nourish your hair are: beans, yogurt, almonds, vitamin B and fish. It's also important to stay hydrated with water.
Do you think Ashitaba will work for 50+ men like me.
Yes, it can work its wonders regardless of age but of course the effect might differ.
one of my many fears when I reach the age of 40 and above is the fact that I will lose my hair.
Yeah me, too. I guess if one goes completely bald because of old age and genetics, no matter how hard he/she tries, there will be no cure. The most you can do to still look "normal" is to wear a wig or hat to cover your mane.
I really think the ashitaba plant can help those who are experiencing hair loss! How long will it take for ashitaba plant to take effect in an elderly man- say 69 with almost no hair? For lolo daw kasi ๐
Hehe I am not sure, to be honest. The effect differs on a case per case basis of course.
perfect for those who are experiencing hair loss.. but are afraid to try unorganic products..!
This is really interesting! I wonder if this is available and FDA Approved here in the US. The idea is very mind blowing but I hope hair is the only thing it regrows ๐
Like many other herbal medicine, this one is not yet FDA approved though there are lots of testimonies you can find online re: its health benefits.
I need this since I gave birth almost 4 years ago, my hair fall is unstoppable. I tried different shampoos already but there's no effect.
You can have ashitaba in any form: tea, capsules or leaves (raw).
This is super helpful. I've been suffering from severe hair fall as well and I've tried a lot of hair products already I'm about to loose hope. ๐
There are many organic products out there that you can substitute to the regular shampoos being sold in the market. Don't lose hope.
I really glad to read this incredible blog post regarding the hair transplant surgery.This products are really so beneficial for the hair growth.
