Shedding - a radical idea

Eating every day, well that's a different ball game. But on a density basis, spinach and kale have a lot of protein in them. I've never gone the spirulina route, but I've also heard this is rich in protein and is an algae.

But, I think if your diet is balanced with plenty of good vegetables and fruits, one doesn't need to worry about eating good QUALITY, grass-fed meats. I've actually heard back from CS on this subject before and he says there isn't much point to looking at the body as totally acidic or totally aklkaline, because the body hasn't a different pH in different compartments. The stomach, skin, and colon are acidic for example. The mouth, upper intestinal tract are alkaline. The blood has miraculous buffers for maintaining a strict pH. I think the body knows what to do with what you give it. Consider that uric acid and lipoic acid are both important antioxidant systems for the body.

I do NOT agree. Even when using LLLT my best results ALWAYS accompany zero shed.

So my apologies for going against a supposed foundational principle, but in my view shedding is a reaction from the body akin to "holy shit" / inflammation / detox / etc.

Sure you lose a few, but in my experience when my diet is perfect I pretty much lose none to one or two or three max. - pillow, shower, combing.

But, if my diet contains any sugar, wheat or dairy - FUCK! Or should I say "Shed!"

I am honestly beginning to think it is pretty simple and half of the problems are self inflicted by us:-

KISS:-

# 1 - STRESS, beat that or shave your head.

# 2 - SYSTEMIC INFLAMMATION - beat that, or.... you get the drift etc.

# 3 - EAT GREAT DIET -

# 4 - Make sure you are alkaline (edit - sufficiently alkaline not to need your buffers - minerals etc. to compensate for what you eat)
# 5 - Take appropriate supps and especially, chelations supps - Algin, Charcoal, Pectin, Humic Fulvic, Chlorella, NAC etc.; add in organic natural, super foods whenever possible.

# 6 - Tai Chi or Exercise like your life (or at least re-growth) depends on releasing growth hormone, "Oh - it does...!"

# 7 - Live as close to nature as you can.

LLLT is probably the only man made invention that I have come across that works, and RIFE of course.

The rest is quieten your mind and listen, really LISTEN.

Shedding in my opinion means you are not quiet and you are certainly not listening. And I'm not judging anyone here, for I am as guilty as anyone. Hence my name, Mastery - as that is the outcome, the objective, the summit to be reached.

If you want an alkaline water machine let me know.

It is a machine that not only filters your tap water but turns it into high alkaline water and infuses it with very good anti oxidant properties as well. I am going to start selling them at some point this year.

Secondly, you mention that after you ate wheat or something your hair was affected days after that, suggesting that your hair reacts to dietary changes in a couple of days.
I believe this is not possible: the life cycle of hairs is several months long, any effects therefore should only show after a couple of months, that's why any hairgrowth method, be it finasteride, minoxidil, brushing, whatever, only has visible effect after some months. Even people who get chemotherapy or have massive radiation for cancer treatment don't lose their hair all at once after a day or two.
