Using Fish Oil for Hair Loss

Can you use fish oil for hair loss?

If you're looking for a natural way to reduce hair loss and improve hair growth, you may be surprised by what other people have found about using fish oils to improve hair growth. You'll also read about an interesting hair care product I discovered that actually reduced my hair loss and improved my scalp health.

First, let's take a step back and take a look at some causes of hair loss.

Doctors specializing in hair loss believe it's caused by:

• hormones
• medicines
• infections
• disease
• diet

One of the most common conditions is called androgenic alopecia.

In men, this condition is typically called male pattern baldness. It begins with hair loss above the temples and may slowly lead to partial or complete baldness.

In women, there's a more generalized thinning of the hair all over the scalp with minimal change in the hairline.

Researchers believe androgenic alopecia is caused by hormones, particularly an androgen called dihydrotestosterone. It's also believed there may be a genetic component to androgenic alopecia, however it's unclear exactly how this mechanism occurs.

One of the factors involved in androgenic alopecia is inflammation of the hair follicle.

Research shows that the fatty acids in fish oils can offer an anti-inflammatory effect in the body. If this is the case, can you cure hair loss or baldness with fish oils if the cause is due to an inflammation of the hair shaft or scalp?

Unfortunately, there are no published studies on the use of fish oils for hair loss.

Searches on "fish oils" at hair loss forums such as Hair Loss Help Forum and Hair-Loss-Talk.com fail to show any connection between hair loss, baldness and fish oils. I was unable to find any testimonials from people that have successfully used fish oil to treat hair loss.

While it's proven you can improve your skin's health with fish oils, its use in treating male pattern baldness or hair loss is not proven.

It's also confirmed there are no studies showing fish oils promote hair loss. In fact, fish oil's anti-inflammatory omega 3 fatty acids can only benefit your existing hair and scalp health.

You can use products that may help delay hair loss and some are advertised to help regrow thinning hair.

For example, Nisim International is a Canadian company that has developed a natural, herbal-based product that guarantees to control excessive hair loss.

A clinical study published in The Medical Post (Vol. 29, Page 61 - August 24, 1993) showed 85.7% of men using Nisim BioFactor Shampoo for 5 months experienced a 30% increase in hair growth.

I recently noticed that I'm starting to lose hair. When I wake up in the morning I'd find about a dozen hairs lying on my pillow - and whenever I wash my hair I see more loose hairs falling down the sink.

So I bought a liter bottle of Nisim Shampoo and Conditioner for Dry Hair to try it out. Nisim offers a 100% money-back guarantee so I figured I had nothing to lose by trying it.

The Dry Hair Formula comes in dark navy bottles as you can see on the left. You can also get a formula for Normal to Oily hair.

Nisim International claims their specially-formulated shampoo reduces a hormone found in your scalp that increases your risk for hair loss.

I was skeptical at first, but must admit I was pleasantly surprised at the positive results I achieved using Nisim shampoos.

After just 1 week of regular use, I'm no longer finding loose hairs on my pillow and I don't lose hair when I shampoo.

The shampoo has a really nice scent to it and I found it really cleans my hair and scalp without drying it out. I also used to suffer from a dry itchy scalp and found this also lessened significantly after using the Nisim products. My hair also feels thicker and healthier.

If you want to control excessive hair loss, you should give Nisim Hair Products a try. I can't guarantee you'll get the same results as I, but you do get a money-back guarantee. I found the ordering process to be trouble-free and I received my products in a timely manner. You can get more information at the Nisim International website. I hope this product will work for you as well as it did for me.

Optimizing your diet and living a healthy lifestyle may help delay (and even reverse) hair loss in some individuals. But as noted above, there can be a number of factors responsible. Addressing all possible causes may help you achieve a healthier scalp and reduce hair loss. Looking at the large number of health benefits from fish oils, you can't lose when you use these healthy oils.
