Why Keto Hair Loss happens and How to Prevent It | ketogenic diet


Hair loss is a normal part of life. According to the American Academy of Dermatology, most of us shed between 50 and 100 hairs daily. If you lose more hair than that, it could be the result of a dramatic change in your diet. Any dramatic change. And this is where anyone following a restrictive diet (including the ketogenic diet) may experience unusual hair loss within three to six months. This can have to do with anything from a deficiency of one or more nutrients to not enough calories to support normal hair growth.
Let’s talk specifically, however, about hair loss in connection with the keto diet. Not everyone experiences hair loss while on the keto diet, but the condition is common enough to warrant a mention.
For some keto eaters, hair loss can be triggered by a lack of protein. If you do not consume enough protein, within three months you will notice (temporary) hair loss.

What is Keto | ketogenic diet | what to have in keto diet

Known more formally as “the ketogenic diet,” keto eating is one of the hottest health trends of the year. According to Google’s 2016 Trend Report, the term “Ketogenic diet” was in the fifth most-searched for diet term searched for last year. Interestingly the keto diet is not a new way of eating. Nor was it originally intended for weight loss. Created in the 1920s as a fringe diet to help epileptics, and has slowly and quietly grown into a diet industry phenomenon. This fat-heavy, carb-shy diet is thought to help heal nervous system disorders (such as epilepsy, seizure disorder and tic disorder), as well as metabolic disorders (including diabetes 1 & 2 and cardiovascular disease). And although it sounds counter-intuitive to expect weight loss while scarfing down large amounts of high-calorie fat, Ketogenic eating is said to help eaters slim down, as well. At the crux of the diet is carbohydrates. Specifically, a lack of them. As the theory goes, when you drastically cut do

Can you eat superfoods and still be keto?

Superfoods foods are celebrated for their ability to strengthen the immune system, fight inflammation, and prevent  green  diseases. Decades of  studies  have found that adding one or two servings of superfoods to your daily diet can help lower your risk of a variety of cancers, reduce blood cholesterol levels, help maintain brain health, and decrease your chances of catching common viruses, such as the cold and flu.

Keto Constipation: What it is, Why it happens and What to do About it

Image
Constipation is a common side effect of the keto diet, especially in the early days as your body adjust to eating low-carb, high-fat foods. One reason is a simple change in eating style: Whenever a body is faced with a sudden change in the food it is given, it can react with constipation. Within two weeks, it typically adjust and starts (literally) moving again. Dehydration, a common early side effect of ketogenic eating, can contribute to constipation by leaving stool dry, hard and difficult to pass. The can the lack of fiber in many low-carb, high-fat foods can also lead to constipation. Fiber bulks up stool, and keeps it moist, so it can easily pass through the large intestine and out from your body. Without fiber, stool becomes hard, dry and stuck. Not only is this uncomfortable—causing bloat and gassiness—but passing this hard stool can cause anal fissures and hemorrhoids. Fortunately, keto eaters don’t need to be constipated—there are many things that can be done to ens
