The lemon in the kitchen

Natural antiseptic, lemon is known for its high content of vitamin C. It is a very natural way to enhance the flavor of food and also flavor soups, sauces, vegetables, desserts and sorbets. It replaces the vinegar in many salad dressings. Finally, we use it to marinate and tenderize white meat, poultry and fish.


Buying and storing

  • Always buy well round lemons, they are juicier than the oval-shaped ones. Choose the brightest yellow lemons, they contain more vitamins. Whole lemons can be stored in your refrigerator tray for about two weeks.
  • Wrap the lemons you opened in plastic and eat them as soon as possible. The lemon should be at room temperature for it to give its maximum juice. Roll it on a board or in your hands for a few minutes before squeezing it. Also, it will give more juice if you first heat it in the microwave for 30 seconds.

Use the zest

Roughly grated, the zests are used in some soups and exotic dishes, desserts and delicate perfumes. It is also used in curries and in some classic stews. To grate the zest, use a fine grater, rub gently to avoid scratching the white skin that give a bitter taste.

A good tip

If you only need a few drops, drill a small hole in the fruit. Then, you can reseal it with a toothpick or wrap the lemon in plastic.

lemon benefits

A lemon tree in the house

If you want to grow a lemon tree at home, here’s how to do it from lemons you bought: keep the seeds moist for 24 h. Fill a pot of 10-15 cm and plant the seeds 2 cm deep. Keep the seeds moist during their germination. They will take about a month to germinate. They will grow well under fluorescent light or on the edge of a sunny window. Unfortunately, it won’t produce anything other than leaves. If you want to see a lemon tree blossom, you’ll have to buy it.

Plant care

Prepare a drained, rich, neutral, without excess water mixture. During growth, use a special citrus fertilizer, watering one time out of two; trim slightly in March and watch out for spiders, mealybugs and aphids.

BED BUGS- HEALTH PROBLEMS due to Bed Bugs?! How to KILL BED BUGS get rid of bed bugs

BED BUGS- Health problems due to bed bugs?! How to KILL BED BUGS get rid of bed bugs?

Bed Bugs

How to kill bed bugs

Preparation for the treatment of bed bugs

Bed bugs have oval flattened bodies, wingless and measure 4-7 mm long. They are a shiny brown colored insect. They swell after a blood meal and then take a dark brown color. There are three stages in the development cycle of a flea: egg, nymph and adult. The eggs are white and about 1 mm long. The nymphs look the same as adults, but are smaller. The last stage takes six weeks to several months to happen. The bug is usually found in the bedroom where it feeds on the sleepers’ blood at night.

Bed bugs
 

Biology Bed bugs feed on human blood: The most common species is the common bed bug (Cimex Mlectularius). They are a serious nuisance and abundantly present.

Bed bugs
Bed bugs

A blood meal takes 10 to 15 minutes for the adult bedbug, but less time for the nymph. During the day, the bug lies mainly on the periphery of the mattress. Depending on the degree of the infestation, it is also found hidden in cracks on the walls, floors and furnitures, in bed frames, behind pictures and under the wallpaper, hiding places also serve as breeding sites.

A temperature of 44oC to 45oC (111oF – 113oF) is lethal to these bugs. Their survival time is assessed to about 20 minutes when the temperature is 65oC.

Adults can survive more than a year without getting any blood.

Dispersion

Bed bugs
Bed bugs

The bug does not get far from its host if it can eat from them regularly. If the infestation is heavy, they can migrate to other rooms. The absence of prey leads to a dispersion of the bug. Thus, when the bugs are present in a room where the people sleep regularly, they tend to stay put. Be careful because if you remove them from the room, the bugs will be dispersed throughout the house or even elsewhere in the building. If this is not the case, they move from one room to another while walking on the ground. Removal or displacement of articles already infested (furniture, bedding, clothing, suitcases, etc..) From an inhabited place to another is the main mode of spread of bedbugs.

Importance for your health

Table 1 summarizes the main effects on the skin (and other more rare cases) associated with bedbug bites. The lesions are similar to those occasioned by a mosquito bite. Typically, bedbug bites appear as three to four bites in a straight line or grouped in one place on the skin, but if the house is seriously infested, several lesions may appear in multiple places on exposed skin when sleeping.

For most people, the bites will result in the formation of small reddish lesions that develop into elevated and hardened lesions. There is frequently a central puncture site of inoculation. These lesions cause severe itching, therefore, they are very troublesome. These lesions are more symptomatic in the morning and the intensity of redness and pruritus (itching) decreases during the day. The lesions occur mainly on exposed arms, legs and back. If the person is not stung again, the lesions disappear after two weeks.

Effects much less frequent but more serious may occur such as nettlerash and giant bulbous eruption that may be hemorrhagic. Children with atopy (allergies) are more likely to develop papular urticaria. Finally, anaphylactic reactions have rarely been documented (see Table 1 for a brief description of these effects on health).

In another words, secondary bacterial infections can occur from recurrent scratching from itching. However, this case is rare.

Table 1. Summary of skin problems associated with bedbugs

Type of problem Brief Description Frequency
Wheal A smooth, slightly elevated, more reddish or pale skin surrounding the associated itching and usually transient. Following each bite
Nettlerash Rapid swelling of the skin with severe itching. Rare
Bulbous eruptions sometimes bleeding Similar to the bells on the skin, sometimes filled with blood. Rare
Papular urticaria Presence of papules 3 to 10 mm, sometimes surmounted by a vesicle that is more persistent than the wheals or typical nettlerash. These lesions can last from several weeks to several months. They are generally clustered and occur more often in young children. We can find these lesions on exposed parts. Rare

No research has focused on the impact of an infestation by bugs on mental health and sleep. However, some references indicate that repeated bug bites could cause insomnia and anxiety.

Although at one time bug bites were suspected of transmitting viral hepatitis, or to develop anemia caused by multiple stings, so far, no proof of disease transmission by bugs or development of anemia has been documented.

Improper application of insecticides on mattresses to eliminate bugs can have important effects on health, particularly towards children. This practice is therefore to be avoided (see next section).

Control Measures

When the presence of bedbugs is suspected, it is strongly advised to call a professional to ensure that they are located correctly and that the various control methods (including the use of insecticides in some areas) are adequately made according to the standards. exterminators must first ensure that the right product is used and that insecticides are not spread over the beds of people. The exterminator is coming every month out of two in order to kill the bugs that will hatch despite the first use of insecticide. Several steps must be taken by the occupant during the process of extermination. These measures are explained to tenants by the firm responsible of the extermination.

Locating the insects

The infestation can be confirmed by the discovery (in the potential hiding places of bedbugs) of live insects, exuviae, eggs or faeces. These can be visible as small dark brown or black spots on the sheets, walls and wallpaper, and sometimes even in electrical appliances.

Control Methods

1. Physical Barriers

Simple barriers may be used. A barrier can be made by coating the legs of the bed with a few inches of petroleum jelly (Vaseline).

However, it should ensure that no part of the bed touches a wall that would provide an alternative access to the bed.

2. Cleaning by vacuum

Vacuuming is a very effective way to remove bugs already present. It is recommended to vacuum the mattress and box springs particularly where the seams, folds and structures are in the infested beds. If the outer envelope of the mattress is torn, bed bugs may have seeped inside it. If so, you may be obliged to dispose of the mattress, in this case, it is very important to clearly indicate that the mattress is infested so as not to shift the problem elsewhere. You should also vacuum the floor and where it is suspected that the bugs are hiding. Be sure to get rid of the vacuum bag immediately, without opening it, in a place where bugs can’t disperse again.

Used furniture should always be carefully inspected and cleaned before being used. Bedbugs are easily dispersed through the exchange of furniture or clothes.

3. Cleaning the bedding

Bedding (pillowcases, sheets, mattress covers, etc.) and linen should be washed with hot water and soap. The bedding should be placed directly into the washer from a plastic bag to prevent the spread of bedbugs in the laundry room and around the building.

4. Use of insecticides

We recall that it is always advisable to hire a professional exterminator to treat your home with insecticides. It will use a registered insecticide while respecting the recommendations designed to minimize the risks associated with the use of these products. Among the effective insecticides, it is preferable to use pyrethrins, pyrethroids and boric acid, as these products have a lower toxicity to humans than many other types of insecticides. People should avoid to do the extermination themselves, since the bugs are often resistant to the product used. If the product is misused, it will aggravate the problem rather than decrease it. Moreover, it is strongly recommended to use hot steam for the treatment of the mattress which are favorite places for bugs. This technique is effective and can significantly reduce children’s exposure to insecticides.

Pyrethrins and pyrethroids are sprayed everywhere we can find bedbugs, or along cracks in the walls, floor and furniture, bed frames, behind pictures and under the wallpaper. You must ventilate the area after the application of insecticides. Neither people nor animals should enter the rooms during the application of treatment or re-enter treated areas within two hours after treatment, and preferably six hours after treatment. It is also important to not walk barefoot on treated areas until 24-48 hours.

Boric acid is applied along the cracks in walls, floors, behind furniture and under the wallpaper that generally have bedbugs.

The insecticides do not work on the eggs. We must therefore repeat the treatment a month after applying the first treatment to ensure that the problem is eliminated.

Identification

Bed bugs
Bed bugs

Adults: 5-8 mm
Nymphs: 1-5 mm
Eggs: 1 mm
Antennas: 4 segments

The color varies from a pale yellow to a brownish red depending on the stage of development and blood ingested.

/ Signs of infestation

  • Bites
  • Bloodstains on the sheets or pillows
  • Faeces (black spots)
  • Exuviae (empty skin left behind after moulting)
  • Adults and nymphs
  • eggs (white)
  • A peculiar smell musty or moldy (infestations)

Biology

Bed bugs
Eggs Bed bugs

Egg production:

  • 1 to 5 eggs per day per adult female
  • Up to 500 eggs per female in his life
  • The eggs are attached by a sticky secretion
  • 6 to 10 days to hatch

Life cycle

  • from egg to adult: 21 days at 30 ° C and 120 days at 16 ° C (relative humidity 75-80%)
  • 5 nymphal stages requiring a blood meal and a moulting to the next stage
  • Life expectancy under normal conditions: 316 days
  • 3 to 4 generations per year

Development Factors

  • Minimum temperature for development: 13 ° C
  • Lethal temperatures: Low: -16 ° C constant for 4 days. High: 50 ° C for 3 hours.
  • Much prefer human blood but merely a warm-blooded animal.
  • Their meals take 3 to 12 minutes.
  • Under certain conditions, adult bed bugs can survive a year without feeding.

Habits

  • Bedbugs move into the bags, luggage, furniture and other objects and are carried by people.
  • Once introduced, they are often spread throughout the building.
  • They tend to move as close as possible to their food source.
  • They can move anywhere when the population increases.
  • When disturbed or hunted, they hide anywhere.
  • They gather in groups in their hiding places where they lay eggs, defecate and moult.
  • The bugs come out at night but could be active by day if the food is not available at night or during a severe infestation.
  • Bedbugs are attracted by carbon dioxide, heat and body odor.
  • We generally observed that when given a choice, prefer to bite children first, then women and men as a last choice.
  • Bedbugs prefer a dry, semi obscure, tissues or uneven surfaces.
  • Its preference is for wood surfaces, paper and tissues.
  • Bedbugs disdain drafts, polished surfaces and metal objects, but they can still navigate.
  • They do not like the movement.
  • After treatment, if no bite or no evidence of the presence of bugs is found in a period of 45 days, the problem is almost certainly set. If there is occurrence of bugs or bites after a period of 45 days without activity, bedbugs have very likely been reintroduced.

Factors of the bedbugs’ resurgence in the world

  • Although nearly exterminated in North America after World War II, bedbugs have remained widespread in Asia, Africa, Central and South America and Europe.
  • Bugs naturally settle in the bags, luggage, furniture and other objects and are carried by the millions of visitors and tourists.
  • The more targeted use of insecticides and bait traps for several years has given free rein to bugs.
  • The recall of several insecticides that were effective against bedbugs and other restrictions on the use of insecticides.
  • Lack of knowledge of our own health and of the population in general helped to disperse the bugs before making a diagnosis and appropriate treatment.

Health risk

  • Although bugs can sometimes carry human pathogens, no study could prove they also transmit it. For this reason, Health Canada does not consider it a public health problem. We believe that this could change.
  • Lack of sleep
  • Infections of the wounds if you scratch
  • Isolation or psychological problems
  • Repeated exposure to insecticides if multiple treatments are inconclusive
  • Respiratory problems due to exuviae’s particles of bugs that are found in the air.

Bite Reaction

Bed bugs
Bite of Bed bugs
  • Reactions can vary greatly from one person to another depending on his degree of sensitivity
  • Normally, small red swelling appears because of an allergy some people have. It is a reaction to the saliva injected by the bug
  • 30% of the population have no reaction after being stung
  • The reaction can occur up to 2 weeks after the bite

Working with your landlord and / or manager of property is desirable and even crucial to overcome the infestation. It will be important to contact him to get a date for the treatment.

Talk with him to know how all the stages of the preparation are going before the treatment. Listed below are the recommendations that will help you prepare the affected areas of your home for the treatment.

Kill Bed bugs
  • Empty the closets, drawers, desks. Place bedding and clothing in plastic bags, close them and take them out of the room. Make sure all bags are securely closed before moving from one room to another.
  • Wash bedding and clothing in the hottest water possible, then dry them at the highest temperature. Replace all bedding and clothing in new plastic bags and close them again.
  • All carpets, handmade carpets, upholstery and imported fabrics require steam cleaning and / or professional dry cleaning.
  • Throw away unnecessary clutter and remove any objects lying on the floor. Wash all floors, desks, drawers, closets housing before treatment.
  • Use a vacuum cleaner with a crevice tool to capture bed bugs and eggs. Vacuum crevices of the mattress on the bed frame, box spring, headboard, bed legs, baseboards, quarter round, trim and all the objects that are near the bed. Repeat the same process in all parts of the house. Make sure the vacuum has a bag that can be removed after each use. Avoid using bag-less vacuums. Vacuum every day after the application of insecticide and remove the bag after each use.
  • 24 hours after treatment, you can put the lingerie and clothing in the desks, dressers, drawers, closets and night stands. Do not wash the insecticide for at least 30 days or 90 days, for best results.

No animals, fish, reptile or bird should be in contact with the workpiece infected for at least 30 days after application of the insecticide.

When the treatment is done, particularly when the mattress and pillows have been treated, we recommend closing the door of the room in question and preferably wait at least 24 hours before returning to sleep, especially if it’s a child’s room. Although low toxicity pesticides are recommended, you should still respect the delay to reduce the risk of exposure and particularly for those who are more sensitive. Once the delay is over, it is necessary to ensure proper ventilation of the room, ideally, by opening the window for some time. After making sure the mattress is dry, you will then have to put a mattress cover in plastic with a zipper, clean sheets and pillowcases before going to bed again.

If the mattress, box springs, futons, sofa beds and chairs have cracks and / or holes, they must be put in the trash. You will have to make sure it is respecting the environment and public health.

SOLUTION PROPECIA HAIR LOSS

Why Hair Loss Sudden or Slow?
How about it?
Is there a SOLUTION a natural or an anti Hair loss?

That many questions that arise every person who is found in this state with premature hair loss.What is normality?

L'image “http://img.bleskovky.sk/20532.jpg/bruce-willis.jpg” ne peut être affichée car elle contient des erreurs.

We lose our hair every day,and it’s normal.Lose fifty hairs a day is quite normal.But then,if the fall is more important, it is important to respond, because there is a beginning to a specific cause.

Why we are born with this or that capital hair?

The hair seems little influenced by the external environment and the transmission of their main characteristics is largely genetic.

However, as the nails, they consist mainly of protein (keratin) and their health isinfluenced by food hygiene of the person.

Drug for baldness

Propecia

Propecia contains the active ingredient, finasteride, known as Alpha reduct ase inhibitor type II 5.

How does Propecia?

Propecia blocks the action of a compound in the body called type II 5 alphareductase. This enzyme is responsible for the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT is a hormone that can damage the hair follicles, causing hair loss in men who are sensitive to this hormone.

Propecia blocks the action of alpha reductase type II 5 and thus the formation of DHT. The decrease in the amount of DHT in the blood and the scalp can lead to stopping the process of hair loss.

Propecia increases hair growth and prevents hair loss due to male pattern baldness. Once started treatment with Propecia, it may take 3 to 6 monthsbefore you notice a real decrease in the loss of hair or increased density.Continued use of this drug is recommended for maximum results.

Most of our hair is in a growth phase (that is, they are between 2 and 5 years).This is the longest phase of the life of the hair, in which each hair can grow from 0.75 to 1.5 cm per month.

At this growth phase followed by a preparation phase of three weeks: the hair is getting ready for the resting phase

A resting phase of 3 months which leads to hair loss.

Then the cycle begins again: a new hair regrowth and replaces one that fell.

ALL the RISKS

MEN:

About 65% of men experiencing hair loss problem

  • 38% victims of baldness or alopecia localized become partially bald.
    These hair loss can start as young as 18 years, they reach one in three men at thirty, and nearly one in two men around fifty.


Women:

About 70% of women are faced with a problem of hair loss in a period of their lives, but they are generally favored a view to hormonal menopause or pre-menopause.
Some women more sensitive on a genetic point of view, can suffer from diffuse alopecia: hair, in this case, become very fine.


Androgenetic Alopecia

What is it?

Hair loss due to two factors: a hormonal factor, and a hereditary factor.

Genetic susceptibility of the scalp androgen (male hormone whose main subject is, in this case, testosterone). So this is a predisposition in the field.

It may be more commonly known as seborrheic alopecia or baldness « classic »because it affects 90% of men with alopecia

She moved slowly and diffusely.

It is directly related to male hormones in the blood, but mainly affects the scalp.These are the hair follicles of the frontal areas, parietal (temples) and the top of the skull that are most sensitive to these hormonal disturbances.

Androgenetic alopecia in women appeared there twenty years. Since it affects a growing number

In women androgenetic alopecia is a refinement of the hair. It is less spectacular than in men, focusing on the top of the skull or on the line.

The human body produces androgens as well as that of women (20 times lessthan in men). All of the androgen is secreted by the gonads (testes and ovaries, 40%) and adrenal glands (60%). These hormones have many functions but for both sexes and there is a genetic susceptibility, they accelerate and shorten the life cycle of hair follicles.

In the case of a genetic hypersensitivity, the hair becomes finer and shorter.Then, exhausted bulbs shrink, producing more than a fine down, that’s whatleads to baldness

Family history is a critical factor in determining androgenetic alopecia.

Explanations of a physiological point of view

 

On the scalp, testosterone is converted into dihydrotestosterone (DHT) under the influence of the enzyme 5α-reductase. DHT stimulates the sebaceous glands which increase sebum production. This effect is particularly apparent in adolescence. Stagnant sebum in the hair follicle will gradually clog. Therefore,the scalp thicken, preventing blood vessels to feed the bulb.

Another negative effect of DHT is known to shorten the growth phase of hairand its life cycle, which makes the hair thinner and more fragile.

Is the transmission of genes from the mother alopecia or father, or both, both in boys than in girls, that causes this genetic predisposition.

These genes stimulate the activity of 5 alpha-reductase, which in turn leads to amuch greater secretion of DHT.
We must therefore understand that in this case, it is not the amount of testosterone secreted is in question, but how « abnormal » it is used and converted by the genetically programmed hair follicles. In other words, it is not a hormonal disorder, but an abnormal receptor bulbs.

If there is no genetic predisposition, the two substances combine harmless anddo not interfere in any way the normal physiological development of the hair.

Androgenetic Alopecia in Women

 

Family history is a key factor in the diagnosis of androgenetic alopecia.

But more than 20% of women with no history in their family and yet have clinical signs of this alopécie.Arround 30% of women suffer from androgenetic alopecia.

This predisposition is associated with hypersensitivity to androgens and hyperactivity of the enzyme 5α-reductase. As humans in this case, it will be imperative to act locally (at the scalp) on androgen production and 5α-reductase.

It is very important to act at the first sign of abnormal fall, because once used up any capital hair back will never be possible. Care for external application can improve the appearance of hair, however it is not enough to guarantee the integrity of hair follicles. An internal processing-time, which if necessary could be renewed at certain times of life, is absolutely essential. However, it is very important to know the type of fall which the person is facing in order to choose the treatment best suited fall.

Androgenetic alopecia is very easy to diagnose in women: the hair is thinning only on the top of the head and sometimes on the temples, while the hair of the neck and temples is dense and well stocked. This alopecia begins with a widening of the median line. The hair becomes thinner and sometimes it goes hand in hand with seborrhoea. It is irreversible if we do not address the problem.

Androgenetic alopecia in men

 

This is the most common hair loss in men.

It affects both young men from the age of 20-22 years (20%) than men in their forties 50% of men from the age of 50 suffer from androgenetic alopecia. This alopecia is a hereditary predisposition that is to say, it is usually transmitted from father to son. This does not mean that all men suffering from androgenetic alopecia have a child predisposed to this type of alopecia. This is related to hyperactivity of the enzyme 5α-reductase, it is essential to regulate, but it is impossible to completely inhibit because it is inevitably linked to the production of testosterone.

It recognizes the hair loss androgenetic its location. Bare areas are the upper front (gulfs bilateral) or the top of the skull, the fall in the area usually starts with a tonsure, while the neck and temples remain dense and well furnished. This decline stems from the overactive alphareductase 5.

This enzyme will convert locally and excessive testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT). Rate too high will cause DHT shortens the growth phase of the hair.

The length of each hair cycle will significantly decrease from a few years to months. The hair cycles, normally scheduled to last a lifetime, will therefore run out much faster. Excess DHT usually causes increased activity of the sebaceous glands surrounding the hair bulbs. This excess seborrhea will gradually clog the pores of the bulb that slowly suffocate. Meanwhile, the scalp is not well vascularized, or fed. All these phenomena will lead to atrophy of the bulb, resulting in a first thinning hair, and then a gradual and total loss of hair on areas of more extensive scalp.

Other types of Alopecia

Alopecia Areata

In this case, hair loss occurs on one or more well-defined areas of the scalp (usually round plates). Its evolution is unpredictable. Sometimes the hair growsspontaneously in a few months, and in other cases, alopecia areata can progress to total baldness or persist for many years.

Whatever the origin, recurrences are common.

Stress is a factor in the development of alopecia areata, but yet its origin is not always psychosomatic (emotional shock, heavy stress). The causes are not always well defined.

Often there is a microscopically visible inflammation around the hair follicle.Then there is a slowdown in growth of the hair of up to stop the shoot.Inflammation is probably due to a reaction-type autoimmune disease. In this case, the antibodies attack the hair follicle which slows or suspends its function,so far without permanently or completely destroyed.

Alopecia areata may also be caused by out breaks neighbors (dental, eye or sinus).

Seborrheic Alopecia

 

It’s not alopecia as such, but rather an aggravating factor or progressive. Indeed,excess sebum is secreted in excess by the glands surrounding the hair bulb. sebum (grease) blocks the pore of the bulb by which the hair grows. The bulband choke tends to atrophy. If this phenomenon is associated with hormonal imbalance local, one enters the pattern of androgenetic alopecia.

All bald people have not developed an office seborrhea, and oily hair do not fallinexorably.

In women, as men prone, stress promotes excessive seborrhea, dandruff anditchy scalp.

The Telogen effluvium

It is a form of baldness in men or women, which manifests itself in excessive hair loss and sudden on the entire scalp.

The extent of hair loss in telogen effluvium is distinguished from androgenetic alopecia which covers only specific areas of the scalp it concerns a minority of men.

This type of alopecia is caused by deficiencies, external factors or disorders of the body and appears for example in severe systemic diseases, severe stress resulting from surgery or injury, fever, diet too severe, carencesen iron, etc..

These abundant hair loss (sometimes with handles) are usually reversible once you detect and remove the trigger for the fall.

The causes of telogen effluvium passing are very diverse: pregnancy, childbirth,seasonal changes, major surgery, prolonged illnesses, emotional shock intensity, the decree making birth control, etc..

In some cases, hair loss in telogen effluvium may be or become sustainable if they are not treated well. Be especially vigilant during prolonged depression or during chronic stress, when medication long term. Should be monitored metabolic disorders due to a drastic diet or anorexia. And when hair lossabundant and wide spread across the scalp, it is necessary to rule out certain possible causes and sneaky as deficiencies in zinc, magnesium, calcium oriron, and possible thyroid problems or hormonal .

When should we worry?

Male or female, it is normal to lose hair every day. It is like any other fabric, are generation or renewal of our cells and elimination of dead cells or too old. However, if this process accelerates or worsens in any way whatsoever, it is necessary to act quickly to avoid depletion of your capital « hair bulb » which, remember it, is limited.

Losing every day fifty hair is perfectly normal. But if you feel that your hair is thinwith no body or dull, nothing prevents you from performing a course of about 3months of specific nutrients and vitamins.

This definitely will restore vitality, shine and health to your hair.

If you lose between 50 to 80 hairs a day, there is nothing alarming, but it is necessary, even in prevention, take the necessary action depending on the typeof hair loss that you have (stress, deficiency, predisposition androgenetic ,pathologies)

The loss of hair over 80 is considered alarming. It should not be allowed to occur or continue the problem. A real attack treatment with natural products and specific should therefore be undertaken as soon as possible.


Act quickly!

Hair care efficient and adapted, there are for men and women of all ages.

Treatments against hair loss are effective if they act on different aspects of the problem. On the one hand, it is essential to stimulate the vital functions of the hair to compensate for various causes of falls (negative effects of androgens, stress, external aggression, etc.).. On the other hand, for out patient care(shampoo, lotion, massage, etc.). Must detoxify and cleanse the scalp to eliminate toxins and dead cells. In addition, it is essential to enable the vasodilation of the scalp to promote blood circulation to hair roots.

Improved local circulation of the scalp facilitates the provision of vitamins, minerals

and amino acids provided by adequate and nutritional supplements. Theremineralization of the hair by stimulating domestic growth.

Ideally, of course, in parallel, closely monitor your lifestyle. When the body is neglected, the first cells to suffer the consequences is the rapid turn over in cells, such as hair or skin. Watch your diet daily, this does shoed that potentiate the effects of anti-fall.

In all cases of hair loss, light massage of the scalp, even a few minutes a daystimulate regrowth the better they are associated with successful treatment.

Women’s Specifics

The woman is more subject to various hormonal changes during certain slices of life (stress, childbirth, menopause, premenopause …). During these moments, hair poorer, the bulbs become brittle and duration of hair cycles is sometimes reduced if the scalp is too responsive to male hormones, androgens.

These phenomena begin to significantly valuable « capital bulbs » and that, sometimes in just a few years.


Specifics Men’S

The majority of men believe that alopecia is hereditary and incurable, yet it is entirely false!

A simple lotion, if it is quality, can help improve the appearance of your hair and even stop the fall, but not enough to re-nourish the hair and scalp thoroughly, or stop imbalances hormonal or seborrheic with a deeper origin.

It is essential to act effectively and at the first sign of abnormal falls, for that itwill opt for an internal processing long-term or ad hoc to be renewed at certain times of life.

Whatever the origin of the fall, if you want to get rejected, it is essential tostimulate the activity of hair follicles by an oral treatment containing nutrients and vitamins.

Natural and appropriate care can reverse this sensitivity and hormonal excess sebum.

With effective treatment and quality, it is more difficult to treat a man a woman and the results are equally compelling regardless of gender.

 

Local Action

Androgenetic alopecia is an imbalance of androgens in different places well localized in the skin.

Taking into account this parameter local imbalance, recent medical research has created a new approach and innovative aesthetic technology.

New generations of natural cosmetic products have appeared on the market to counter local hormonal imbalances. Their effects are much less aggressive than those of chemical molecules such as Minoxidil and Finasteride. In addition, they do not affect the overall hormone levels and therefore no side effects and no cons-indication.
