today we’re going to talk about

eyelashes and really important

nutritional factors in relationship to

helping you grow your eyelashes or make

them thicker or longer now per eyelid

you have about 1 to 200

hair follicles and the hairs that grow

out of your eyelids go through um two

different phases one is a growth phase

and a rest phase and when people start

either losing their eyelashes or

they become small and very thin there’s

a problem with one of these two phases

and there’s a lot of different technical

names for these conditions that describe

them but that doesn’t really tell you

what’s really behind this problem i mean

if we just take a look at the basics we

have the eyelash what is an eyelash well

it’s protein

what makes up protein amino acids

what makes up amino acids well we have a

combination of this biochemical reaction

occurring with certain raw material

which one really important factor would

be

trace minerals okay so you need trace

minerals to make amino acids which then

help turn into proteins which are

basically just a long chain of different

amino acids and when you’re missing

certain trace minerals

devastating things can happen to your

body much like missing a trace mineral

in the soil will have devastating

effects on the plants as well as

devastating effects on the animals that

eat the plant and on top of that the

devastating effects of humans eating

animals that are deficient in certain

trace minerals now i just want to

mention a book that i’m reading which is

actually relates to this topic it’s a

fascinating book this is it right here i

don’t know if you can see it

soil grass and cancer

okay

now when i first found this book

sounded very very interesting

until i got to the price which was 250

dollars

so immediately i said there’s no way in

hell i’m going to buy a book that’s 250

despite revealing the link between human

and animal health and mineral balance in

the soil which got my attention because

i’m doing all sorts of experiments on my

phone so about an hour later

it’s basically haunting me i’m thinking

why can’t i find any used books that are

a lot less expensive um i mean why

aren’t people getting rid of this book i

mean

maybe it’s extremely valuable and no one

is wanting to resell it and it starts to

evolve to this point of like i have to

get this book i have to see what’s in

this book because

um it must be good if it’s that

expensive or i would i would see some

negative reviews i haven’t seen any

negative reviews only amazing reviews

now of course it’s a bit technical for

the average person but

it’s a fascinating study on the

relationship between

missing trace minerals in the soil

and how that affects the plant and the

animals and humans

because the foundation of our health

actually starts in the soil if there’s

something missing in the soil which

there is

how can you create food and animals that

feed us that

turn into health you can’t and these

little trace minerals are vitally

important because

it’s at the heart of enzymes it’s at the

heart of making vitamins like b12 and

it’s at the heart of making antioxidants

and even phytonutrients

all right so let me get back on topic

here because i’m getting a little

distracted

so if you investigate and look up the

mechanism

of why someone would lose their

eyelashes it comes down to a

deficiency

of a very specific type of

prostaglandin now don’t get too hung up

on this word prostaglandin

prostaglandin is just a signaling

molecule it’s kind of like a hormone

it’s a

a message that travels to the body that

tells the body to do certain things and

if you’re deficient in a certain

prostaglandin you can have all sorts of

uh problems with growing hair

inflammation and yet if there’s other

prostaglandins that you have too much

that can relate to things like headaches

for example when you take an aspirin

what you’re doing is you’re blocking

certain types of prostaglandins and

that’s why aspirin works for headaches

but in summary some of the medications

that they use involved in growing

eyelashes have to do with

enhancing

this deficiency of this specific

prostaglandin called prostaglandin f2

alpha if you really wanted to know we’re

just going to call this pgf2 alpha and

that way we can sound a little bit

smarter so there’s actually just two

things you need to know about

increasing this

deficiency of this prostaglandin one is

an acid

called rescinolic acid that acid can

help correct that deficiency and help

someone regrow their eyelashes not just

help grow it but can it can actually

thicken the eyelashes and then help the

texture to make them

have the right oil

consistency and number two

zinc and that is the trace mineral that

i’m leading up to when you’re a zinc

deficient

you can’t make that

prostaglandin now remember i talked

about trace minerals making all sorts of

things like enzymes and phytonutrients

well they also make this signaling

molecule called prostaglandin and

without zinc you can’t make it so this

is why zinc is really important in

your nails your skin your hair

your immune system uh making

testosterone it’s involved in literally

like a hundred different biochemical

reactions at least and so there’s been

quite a few reports and people taking

zinc and helping

regrow their hair and specifically the

eyelashes now if you’re going to get a

zinc supplement i would highly recommend

you get a quality

zinc supplement in a blend of all the

trace minerals and to be totally

transparent i have a zinc product and a

blend of all the trace minerals that i

sell i’m not even telling you to get

that product it’s actually more

important to find out why you’re

deficient in zinc in the first place

like looking at your diet so zinc is

involved in regrowing the eyelashes and

also this resinoic acid which by the way

is in castor oil now castor oil is a

laxative

it’s a preservative it is something that

helps women induce labor when they’re

about to deliver it’s used as a skin

moisturizer it’s also used as an anti

dandruff

remedy but a lot of women use it to help

regrow their eyelashes and personally if

you’re going to get castor oil

just make sure it’s organic and it’s a

cold processed or unrefined as long as

it’s that you don’t have to get a very

very expensive castor oil because a lot

of the castor oil really comes from the

same place

because some people actually sell in

these very tiny bottles

where it’s

you know you can get the same material

in a much larger bottle at a fraction of

the cost so the two best things for the

eyelashes are number one zinc and castor

oil i would put castor oil topically and

take zinc internally because that way

you’re working on something from the

inside out now there’s a really

interesting study done on mice where

they evaluated

feeding mice aspirin because aspirin

blocks those prostaglandins right and

this is what they found they found that

when they did that they created the

exact same effect as a zinc deficiency

because they looked at the symptoms of a

zinc deficiency and a prostaglandin

deficiency and are both the same and the

lesson or take away from this video

is to

understand

what these

symptoms are what these like little red

light indicators are

and instead of camouflaging a hole in

the bucket find out what the deeper

underlying root cause is

instead of just patching a hole and so

this leads me to the next video that you

really should watch

as in what are some of the causes of a

zinc deficiency and how can you correct

it right here check it out
