Hair Growth

There are 2 generally accepted theories concerning hair growth. The first is heredity determines the degree of hairloss experienced in a lifetime. The second is there's a biological clock ticking away in the hair follicles on the top of the head that at some point in time goes off and sets in motion the beginning of the hairloss process.

I will address the Biological Clock Theory first. The biological clock theory just doesn't make sense. I have seen various stages of hairloss on men since the early 1950s. This includes receding hairlines on teenagers and young men in their 20s and completely full heads of hair on men over 50; One of them in his 70s. If the biological clock theory were to hold water, then the start of the hairloss process would be more consistent in all men. End of story.

There is no question that heredity plays a small role in the hairloss process. Just as with other aging indicators, such as: Heart disease, high blood pressure, and arthritis, heredity determines how easy or not it is for you to succumb to these age related afflictions. However, whether or not you do succumb to these afflictions is determined by your lifestyle choices. The same holds true for hair growth. It is your lifestyle choices that will determine whether you continue to grow a full head of hair, or lose some or all of it in your lifetime.

The Hairgrowth Cycle begins with the hair follicles dropping their hair at the end of the growth cycle which occurs at random. Each hair grows for 3-5 years. It then withers and falls out over a period of 1 month. The hair follicle then goes dormant for a period of 3 months. A new hair then begins to grow and the cycle repeats itself over and over again. When the hair follicle does not receive adequate nutrients, the hairgrowth cycle is shortened and the hair shaft gets thinner with every full cycle. The variables that determine how successfully one grows hair are the nutrients available at the time the hair is about to begin its growth cycle and the circulation and metabolism needed to effectively deliver the nutrients to the hair follicles.

The HGS eManual provides the information you need to compensate for the less than best choices you make. In so doing, your diet, level of activity, and supplementation can be brought into balance so you can begin to grow and maintain the hairline of your youth.
