Avatar n tn About 2 years ago (when I was 23) I went to a hair salon, had my hair colored incorrectly, to fix this the colorist applied 2 different coloring treatments which were excruciating and made my scalp burn.

417564 tn?1287982827 It seems very common to get a cold/flu while detoxing/withdrawing - could this be because of the vitamin deficiency our bodies suffer from?

It is in anyones best interest to research the Thomas recipe, and I believe it is Avisg journal that gives great info on proper dosage. (I need to check & make sure I am giving credit when it is due!
Avatar f tn Vitamin D deficiency is commonly due to not enough sunlight. However, the causes of vitamin D deficiency are numerous and you may have more than one condition contributing to this deficiency. Vitamin D deficiency is estimated to affect at least a billion people worldwide. When vitamin D levels are not rising well or at all (vitamin D resistance) low magnesium levels are the first suspect. High doses of vitamin D can worsen an existing magnesium deficiency.
Avatar n tn It must be continually replenished or symptoms of deficiency can manifest. It is estimated that vitamin B12 deficiency affects 10 percent to 15 percent of individuals over the age of 60. Remember, if you take an acid-blocking medication, you are guaranteed to have low vitamin B12. In fact, it's rare that someone on an antacid medication does not have a severe vitamin B12 deficiency. There are many reasons why you can be low in vitamin B12 and feeling the many effects of the lack of it.
Avatar n tn I have been suffering from dandruff for more than 10 years. I have tried Nizoral, coal tar, head and shoulder, selsum blue etc but nothing seems to help. Especially in 3 area in my head near the centre, I big circle of dandruff forming. They can be almost the size of dime. Its thicken , raised flaky transparent skin layer with dots. I have been noticing this for atleast 4 years now. I scratch and take it out but it rebuilds in just couple of day in the excact location.
Avatar n tn Follicular issues are often due to Vitamin A deficiency. Low immunity and loss of taste and smell can be from Zinc deficiency. You may also want to have your Vitamin D and C levels checked. I would see a good internist (preferably one specializing in integrative medicine) first!
Avatar n tn I am a pharmacist, and feel that I am somewhat educated on most skin problems, but I cannot figure this one out. Could it be internal? Some sort of vitamin deficiency? The rest of my skin (other than face and scalp) is pretty dry, too. I have had my thyroid checked, but never had vitamin levels checked. Any advice? I am so tired of being embarassed.
Avatar f tn You can tell its dandruff or dry scalp by the colour and if there is a smell present or not. Dandruff is yellowish and gives off an odour.
Avatar f tn I'm 22 years old, sexually active and have always used a condom during intercourse but not during any oral activity. I recently started working at a new restaurant where in in the hot kitchen in front of heat lamps in tight clothing(jeans, black tee shirt, gray button up shirt tucked in, and an apron that starts at the waist and goes down to my ankles). I surf all year around even in the winter here in New Hampshire(thick wetsuit, good, gloves, boots).
Avatar m tn Many factors, including how well you chew your food, what time of day you take your vitamin supplements and what kind of prescription medications you're taking, can contribute to vitamin malabsorption. There are some ways for you to get clues about vitamin and mineral absorption in your body. Examine your fingernails. There are many signs in the fingernails that can show internal deficiencies. If the tip of the nail is spooned, it may indicate low iron or B-12.
506570 tn?1215836300 I have a 4 year old Alaskan Malamute, Loki, who has dandruff like flakes on some areas of his skin. His hair is also a bit thinner along his spine on his lower back. I have tried researching skin conditions in Malamutes and found a lot of information on zinc-responsive dermatosis in Alaskan Malamutes. I would love to know if anyone else is giving their dog zinc supplements and how you went about finding out that your dog has zinc-responsive dermatosis.

Avatar f tn A common symptom of vitamin A deficiency is rough, dry skin which often first appears as rough, raised bumps called keratosis pilaris (also called chicken skin). Keratosis most often appears on the back of the upper arms although it can appear on any body part except for hairless areas of skin. The conversion of beta carotene into vitamin A is dependent on several factors: protein status, thyroid hormone, zinc and vitamin C. Omega 3 deficiency is also a listed cause of keratosis pilaris.
Avatar n tn Hello, Causes of hair fall could be like nutrients and proteins deficiency in the hair cells, emotional or physical stress, hormonal imbalances, dandruff, and serious illness like a tumors, infectious disease and Alopecia areata.. If there is underlying disease or nutritional deficiency .Give your diet an overhaul if you're lacking vital nutrients for growth and switch to foods for healthy hair.
