My favourite product 5 - Hair Thinning Issue

Hi friends,

One of my colleagues in her 40s asked me if there are any anti-aging tips for thinning hair. She said, her hair is getting thinner and thinner, after having her daughter.  She now thinks she is getting bold.

She often pulls my hair when we encounter in a corridor at work. If you promise me not to do that again, I shall share my tip with you…

Here’s my favourite product. Organic whole bean soya milk.

Why on earth are you talking about the milk when we need a tip for hair thinning? Now now, friends, please refer to my old post about soya products.

Unlike body hair, hair on your head is pretty much affected by female hormone. When we become 40 and plus, we tend to suffer hormone imbalance. It starts early if you are having stressful life.

That is the big cause of menopause. I wouldn’t say that you are suffering from menopause, but majority of us experience some changes in our body, metabolism and energy level etc since we hit 40.

Hormone imbalance is caused by old age but also stress and health conditions. Age – this is inevitable but we can delay the process by adopting isoflavone rich foods in our daily diet.

I know majority of you cannot stand the texture of tofu. If that is the case, why not try this one then?
I must admit I wasn’t keen on soya milk before. Even though I bought non-sweetened one, I thought it was sickeningly sweet, I could feel something unnatural about the taste. This one is quite bearable. I cannot drink soya milk as it is, but when it is added in coffee or tea, it is OK.  If you are not sure, try English tea with soya milk and one spoon of organic honey.

This can be used as substitute of milk for cooking. I make white sauce with this soya milk. One pack is more or less like my 1 week consumption.  
  
Also, keep changing parting. It doesn’t cost you a penny.

If your problem is serious and you are willing to spend more than £1.39 (that is the price of soya milk), I highly recommend scalp massage using good quality hair tonic. My favourite is Weleda’s product as it is natural and organic. See this link for reference.   

Lastly, stay in love. That is the greatest stimuli to promote the production of female hormone. If you feel difficult to be in love with your partner, fall in love with yourself.

That is too sad, you might say.

Unless otherwise you publically admit that, you are not. One colleague said that to me over Christmas lunch few years ago. It was kind of scary but I was more impressed with her transformation. That is for another post, maybe…
