let’s talk about the real cause and cure

for your dandruff I’m going to talk

about what it is the current treatment

for it

and what’s really behind dandruff as

well as a really good solution how about

that what is dandruff very simply it’s

scaly flaky scalp okay you have the

layers of skin

in the scalp that are flaking off

prematurely normally there’s about a

month cycle where the skin cells in your

scalp develop and then Slough off with

dandruff they’re sloughing off

every week okay it’s seven days instead

of a whole month okay so we’ll talk

about why that is but very simply if you

ask anyone what dandruff is

um they’ll probably show you these

little flaking skin cells on their

shoulders and this is why the number one

treatment for it is Head and Shoulders

which they’re using a certain chemical

zinc peridathione

zpt

which is an anti-fungal okay and it’s

also antibacterial so it’ll kill

microbes in your scalp and it does get

rid of dandruff at least temporarily now

the problem with this treatment is that

it’s banned in Europe because apparently

it does cause some toxicity to be

reproductive organs okay like all

chemicals and medications there’s always

different side effects there is a

certain fungus that the isolated being

behind this whole problem and that

microbe is called malassezia it is a

fungus that has gone Rogue all right

it’s part of our normal flora that we

have on our skin and it’s really the

overgrowth and how this fungus morphs

into a kind of a pathogenic microbe when

the condition or environment changes

okay like all microbes they live in

communities and there’s a lot of

different diversification of microbes

that are inside our body and on our skin

and when we have this imbalance we get

um certain microbes that change their

form and they do weird things and they

also cause our own immune system to

react with certain defenses and there’s

inflammation that occurs and collateral

damage so at the very root of dandruff

there’s really an imbalance in the

microflora on your scalp where we have a

kind of a morphed fungus that is no

longer friendly so it’s creating an

immune reaction and what people don’t

realize is that you have not just

friendly bacteria you have friendly

yeast you have friendly fungus on your

body and inside that is helping you okay

just like the soil you don’t just have

friendly bacteria you also have friendly

yeast and fungus that without that yeast

or fungus the plants can’t dig their

roots and absorb the nutrients as well

so the fungus is just as important as

the bacteria in doing its job without

the fungus in the soil they can’t uh

dissolve the minerals to really pull it

in and allow the roots to absorb it into

the plant and apparently this fungus

that grows on your scalp

eats lipids okay it eats fats it eats

the sebum which is the oil that comes

from the oil glands around the follicles

around your hair follicles but what’s

interesting about this fungus is

it doesn’t like all the fats okay it

only likes the saturated fats it likes

to eat triglycerides it doesn’t like to

eat the omega-6 fatty acids and that’s

very interesting because the omega-6

fatty acids are the inflammatory acids

so personally

I would need the omega-6 I would

definitely at the saturated fats but not

the omega-6 because these are the

inflammatory type fats which has been

linked to inflammation which is exactly

what’s happening on your scalp is just

the tip of the iceberg and what’s really

going on it’s happening in your gut

Flora now obviously if you affect the

gut you affect the skin you affect a lot

of other things but an isolated symptom

of dandruff on your scalp there’s

probably a lot of other things going on

for example there’s a huge correlation

between people developing dandruff and

just after they had some type of

antibiotic right so you’re taking this

antibiotic internally it’s killing off

your microflora and your gut and then

you’re ending up with a systemic problem

on your skin the same thing happens when

you take an antibiotic right you kill

off the bacteria and you end up with a

yeast infection which can happen in your

mouth I mean just because you affect one

part of the body doesn’t mean that it

can’t be systemic and start invading

other parts of your body

we do know this antibiotic kills only

bacteria it doesn’t kill viruses it

doesn’t kill fungus or yeast and this is

why it’s very important to understand

the microbiome you have a lot of

different types of microbes growing in

your gut and on your skin and you have

to understand that

certain microbes like bacteria keep the

fungus in check keep the yeast in check

and if you wipe out the bacteria then

the yeast and fungus can grow at a very

very high rate what do you think would

be a good solution to dandruff well why

don’t we just add the bacteria back in

to the skin okay that sounds pretty good

right and just so you know

um the solutions that I’m coming up with

I found while searching patents for

natural remedies to dandruff which is

actually quite fascinating and I’ll put

those links down below I get so much

great data from patents because when

someone puts a patent out they give you

all this amazing research first so it

helps to consolidate a lot of data that

I probably wouldn’t find if I’m just

doing searches on Google so the first

remedy that I’m going to recommend and

there’s quite a few different things you

can do for dandruff but it is to put

back in the microflora to keep this

fungus in check and I’m going to

recommend you get that micro from kimchi

okay now you’re going to be using just

the juice of it the fluid not the actual

you know the Cabbage or anything like

that you get one teaspoon and you mix it

in some water okay and

when you take your shower okay you use

your shampoo whatever

right when you get done you can

topically put this diluted solution into

your scalp you rub it in your scalp and

you wait for 15 minutes you go back into

the shower or the sink and rinse it out

what you’re doing is just putting a

probiotic back into your scalp there’s a

lot of other things you can do there’s

other options okay I’ll just tell you a

few two teaspoons of olive oil with a

half a teaspoon of coconut oil which has

lauric acid which is really good as an

anti-fungal you can rub that into your

scalp before you go to bed then you wake

up take a shower and then you can just

clean your hair

but the point is there are other things

other than just putting this probiotic

back into your scalp you can use a

diluted tea tree oil diluted garlic oil

you can use diluted oregano oil there’s

so many different things you can use as

a natural

antibiotic without the side effects now

the next thing I’m going to recommend is

to really fix your diet because I really

believe that if you don’t fix your diet

the standard probably just going to keep

coming back because it’s coming from an

imbalance in your gut and one thing

about yeast or fungus okay or Candida

those microorganisms love sugar they are

carboholics I mean think about

fermentation okay making alcohol vinegar

um yogurt all these fermentation type

processes what are they fermenting

they’re fermenting carbohydrates sugar

guess what type of diet you should be on

low carb no sugar diet okay and then of

course

do the healthy version of the ketogenic

diet which is low omega-6 fatty acids so

I would avoid the soy oil the canola the

corn oils which are very inflammatory

there are a lot of people who get on the

ketogenic diet and their dandruff goes

away without even doing anything else so

you should know that I would also start

eating foods that have probiotics

sauerkraut

kimchi

Kiefer

are just a few number three change your

shampoo if you’re using your typical

shampoo and a conditioner if you read

the back of the label there’s a lot of

different chemicals and a lot of these

chemicals are anti-microbial so it’s

very similar into putting insecticides

pesticides herbicides into the soil it’s

going to disrupt the microbiome well the

same thing that’s going to happen when

you start putting these chemicals on

your hair not to mention some people use

a lot of hairspray they use chemicals

with dyes they use their hair dryer with

high Heats all these things affect the

microbiome of your scalp so if you find

a shampoo and conditioner that’s clean

that doesn’t have chemicals and if you

wanna a good one I will put a link down

below

but this is just something that people

uh need to be aware of and number four

get a shower filter that filters out at

least chlorine and maybe even fluoride

chlorine in tap water City water and

fluoride are very very irritating to

your microbes on your surface of your

skin and when you get a good shower

filter you may find that your skin not

just on your scalp improves but the rest

of your skin and your face you might

find an improvement in your acne you

might find that just the overall tone of

your skin is much much better now the

next most important video for you to

watch would be the one that I did on

acne okay relating to this topic check

this out I put it up right here
