Every now and again Ukmedix News feels we have to remind our readers that male pattern baldness is a genetic condition and is not something which will go away by changing your diet. There are hundreds of web sites which put out the misinformation that by eating certain types of protein such as eggs, fish and chicken you will be able to somehow reverse your male pattern hair loss.

We are by no means telling you not consume a healthy balanced diet but you should be aware that it is not going to have any effect or even slow down slightly male pattern baldness. For your diet to have an effect on your hair loss you would need to be chronically unhealthy to the point where you would be unable to function normally.
What it is important to know is that male pattern baldness is in fact perfectly healthy and is a sign of healthy testosterone production, which is converted to dihydrotestosterone in the scalp and which ultimately causes the hair follicles to die. In fact to go one step further male pattern baldness is not even a sign of ageing because it can occur in men as young as twenty who just have a genetic disposition towards it.
The most effective treatment on the market today for male pattern baldness is the hair loss drug Propecia made by the pharmaceutical company Merck. This revolutionary medicine actually deals with the genetically produced dihydrotestosterone and prevents it from forming in the scalp. If you’re serious about getting professional help for your male pattern baldness your first stop should be speaking to a doctor and getting a prescription for Propecia.
The facts are out there and you don’t just need to rely on information given to you by Ukmedix News because your doctor will tell you the same thing. Male pattern baldness can be extremely distressing and cause depression in some men which is why this natural genetic process can be classified as an illness.

Your diet affects all other aspects of your health, why would it not affect hair growth or loss?

Because your diet has little effect on heredity?
