Common Questions and Answers about Omega 3 benefits hair loss

omega-3

Avatar m tn Some experts have said that the balance between Omega 6 fatty acids and Omega 3 is key, but just as many say this is nonsense. Omega 3 do have benefits, mainly reducing inflammation in the body, such as in the arteries or joints. It can also reduce your clotting factor if taken in too high doses, causing excessive bleeding. Experts do agree on one thing, take omega 3 acids from foods rather than supplements. Without a doubt, having enough Omega 3 acids in your diet does improve health.
Avatar m tn , a large producer of nuts and nut products, had put some information on its website about the health benefits of walnuts (which are rich in omega-3 fatty acids).
Avatar m tn Recently I heard that taking omega 3 capsules( the transparent one) will increase the risk of prostate cancer. Is there any scientific studies conducted on the subject?
Avatar f tn No, cod liver oil should be avoided. You can get fish oil (that's not from liver) which is great for you and baby.
Avatar f tn humans can make all necessary fatty acids but omega-3 and omega-6. Usual contemporary diets are low in these nutrients and have been proposed as a cause of many conditions.
Avatar n tn Hello~Your diet sounds good, all those things should help and also keep the diabetes in the "normal" range. I would also like to add a list of some things that might help: Vitamin E "Vitamin E can be used as both a supplement and as a topical remedy for dry skin. When taken orally, vitamin E's powerful antioxidant properties can help to protect the skin from further damage.
Avatar m tn Most everyone knows or has heard about omega-3. The omega that many haven't heard about but that is very important to your health is omega-6. While omega-6 isn't bad in and of itself, what's bad about omega-6 is that Americans get too much of it. Having too much omega-6 and not enough omega-3 in your diet leads to many diseases. To avoid these diseases, you must keep these two very important essential fatty acids in balance or the right ratio.
Avatar f tn If no fleas, why the Advantage and why weekly? He is using it topically between the shoulder blades? I think I would stop the Advntage. Did you ever have flea collars on them? Do you have collars on them? Odd it is all 3 and only the neck area.
Avatar f tn On a 12 week treatment with peg , ribavirin and sovaldi should I experience hair loss ? I am a hairstylist with very long thick hair ,still planning on working . Not planning to tell clients about treatment ,mostly due to fear they will not understand . How much hair loss should I expect?
Avatar m tn But, as Ed has mentioned, a simple blood test to make sure all the other levels are in check will help stop the continued hair loss. I have always had thin hair and now that I am taking the drugs I do, I have had to deal with the side effects. The benefits far out weigh the hair loss. There are wigs or, in my case, I have grown my hair out and wear a ponytail alot.
122065 tn?1241385329 Yes, I do take ******* Omega Guard which is a full spectrum of seven Omega-3's including DHA and EPA. I understand that there have been many studies on the benefits of Omega Fish oil on the eyes and body as a whole, so I started using it sometime ago. I'll continue with that and give the Restasis a good try. I have no risk factors such as high cholesterol, high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes or obesity, so I think your suggestion of 2 a day is fine.
Avatar n tn Hi, I am a 26 year-old female and have been experiencing hair loss at the frontal area over the last few months. I have had quite a lot of stress recently since the grad school started but I am not sure if that is the reason. I was told about Rogaine. I was wondering if you think it would help? If yes, how long do you think i should use it? Does it have any side effects that you have heard of? Is there anything else that you suggest I could do?
Avatar m tn I called the vet and he is out until monday but his veterinary assistance talked to me for about 30 mins and i described in detail the hair loss spots. and I found an other spot as we was talking, She said in the many years she has worked there they havent seen a ring worm case in dogs. Then she asked about allergies which I had forgotten all about.
314276 tn?1235081223 I got an ayurvedic product online that is an Indian hair loss treatment, it was an oil and a shampoo - it really made my hair nicely conditioned - but the mayo will probably work as well, olive oil is good too - add a few drops of rosemary and cedarwood essential oils, leave on as long as possible before washing out, maybe overnight.
Avatar f tn Gabriel encourages intake of flaxseeds, salmon, organic grass, dairy products; omega 3 enriched eggs etc.It encourages exercise and provides long term benefits though the results may take time to show up. It also effectively addresses psychological issues which may affect weight loss. It is best to consult a doctor before taking up any dietary plan. Do keep me posted. Best luck and regards!
Avatar f tn Usually when protein intake is very low or eating incomplete proteins (plant sources and not combining them together), one of the side effects is hair loss. Hair loss can also be after having a baby with the hormone changes or certain illnesses. I do not recommend diatomaceous earth, however, if you do use it be careful you do not inhale it which can damage your lungs. Suggest increasing your protein intake and see what happens. Thank you for your question.
5045042 tn?1365890100 I always had the strightest hair before,and my new curly hair is fun. Most of us on here did suffer some hair loss, unfortunately.
Avatar m tn Oh! I forgot, you would not burp the fish oil if you take the pill each time you eat something or after every meal, I have never had a problem with it.

Avatar f tn What brand of Omega 3's are you using? I have been taking just the Kroger brand Omega 3's with fish oil concentrate. Should I maybe look at the health food store for some that are especially for pregnancy? Thanks!
Avatar m tn Heart Healthy diet which is a moderate fat diet and a moderate fat diet means = use polyunsaturated (omega 3, corn oil, nuts, etc) fats and monounsaturated (olive oil, canola oil, peanut oil, etc) fats, no saturated fats (high fat snack foods, butter, fat spreads) and no trans fats.
Avatar f tn I would recommend taking either the omega 3 and resveratrol together or omega 3 and baby aspirin, but not all three together.
Avatar m tn She told me that the Armour would help with this but when I researched on line, I discovered that one of the foremost side affects of this Rx is hair loss! I cannot afford to lose any more hair. I read about iodine being a cause of hair loss but that, if I understand, if I have Hashi's then I should not take iodine. For reference, my TSH is 6.595, TT4 is 9.70, FT4 is 1.21, TT3 is .91 and FT3 is 2.8. Any info on my Anti-TPO and other would be so greatly appreciated.
Avatar m tn Well, it's been about two months since this treatment started. I went through an entire bottle of otc nizoral. I've stopped using it for now, I started freaking out over the the hair while washing my hair with it. Which was about 14-20 every time i used it. I tried the clinical strength H&S, but it dried out my hair and didn't have much of an effect. I've recently started using Aveeno Anti-dandruff/seb. derm. shampoo.
