This physical barrier can prevent healthy hair growth.If you’re experiencing hair loss, your hair follicles aren't actually dead; they’re dormant. Even people who are completely bald still have living stem cells within the hair follicles.Scar tissue on the scalp is often caused by inflammation. Inflammation can lead to calcification and reduced blood flow to the scalp, preventing many hair loss remedies from working effectively.You may have heard that DHT, a powerful form of testosterone, causes pattern hair loss. There is usually a deeper root cause behind DHT-related hair loss: insulin resistance.Hair follicles depend on glucose for fuel. If you’re insulin-resistant, hair follicles may not get the energy they need to support healthy hair growth.Simply taking a DHT blocker without addressing insulin resistance may not produce significant results. Improving insulin resistance is a more effective strategy for supporting natural hair regrowth, and a low-carb diet is one of the best ways to combat it.Scalp microneedling has been shown to help break up scar tissue and improve the penetration of topical hair loss remedies. This helps natural remedies, such as topical melatonin, work more effectively.Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio:Dr. Berg, age 61, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.
