so I want to talk about one of the major hidden reasons for hair loss okay check

this out this is very interesting I don’t know if you’ve ever heard of item

an H but another name for vitamin H is biotin okay

now when you’re deficient in biotin you’re gonna develop hair loss

especially alopecia okay number two you may get thinning of the hair there were

three brittle nails or a skin rash could be flaking scaly skin you could have a

loss of hair color mild depression muscle pain or extreme tiredness but

other than that you’re gonna be doing great I’m being sarcastic

biotin acts as a cofactor a helper B vitamin it’s a type of B vitamin for

certain enzymes especially for the hair and the skin and also to make certain

essential fats within body tissue and that’s all really interesting but what’s

really important is to know why you might be deficient and biotin so the

question is maybe you’re not consuming enough biotin from the diet right well

chances are that’s not the reason because it’s in a lot of different foods

it’s in almonds eggs onions tomatoes peanuts salmon romaine lettuce

cauliflower and it’s in a lot of other foods as well or it may be you’re

consuming too many raw eggs when you consume raw eggs I’m talking about the

white part okay it has a certain chemical that blocks your absorption of

biotin but you would have to consume at least six to eight raw eggs every single

day for several months to have that happen but the major reason why most

people are deficient in biotin are either they don’t have enough intestinal

good bacteria because we depend on our good bacteria to make certain nutrients

especially biotin so if you took antibiotics for some reason and is

destroyed your friendly bacteria and you did

replace it that could be one reason why you’re not making biotin okay and when

you don’t have the friendly bacteria you get an overgrowth of an unfriendly

bacteria and that could lead to alopecia right there so that’s one cause the

other cause is malabsorption you don’t have the ability to absorb biotin in

your small intestine and that could be coming from irritable bowel syndrome

celiac crohn’s disease some type of ongoing inflammatory condition that gave

you scar tissue and now you can’t absorb it and that would also explain why

someone would start taking a biotin supplement and all of a sudden their

hair comes back their skin looks great they start developing thicker hair and

their diets pretty good the problem is they can’t absorb 100% of it because

they have damage in their GI tract so they have to take more to create the

effect or it could be that they have an imbalance of microflora that they’re not

able to make enough of it so they just need a lot more so if you’re having hair

loss and you’ve tried a lot of different things you tried trace minerals you’re

eating higher-quality protein you’re taking the B vitamins well guess what it

could be this right here so you may need to take a supplement or you may need to

support your your friendly bacteria and start taking more probiotics and if you

have not seen my other videos on hair loss I put them up right here check them
