Alcohol and Hair Loss

Kenny English25 Oct, 2023Other

Any type of body irritant (excessive sunshine, chemicals, radiation, etc.) can adversely impact all parts of the body, including your unnecessary hair follicles. The hormones ? changing levels of DHT (derived from testosterone) in particular ? can cause miniaturization of hair follicles, shortened hair growth cycles, and inflammation. None of this promotes thick, healthy hair. It?s important to realize this is not what happens from that glass of wine with dinner, the single artisanal bourbon, or one (perhaps two) mugs of a finely-crafted IPA. These effects are from excessive drinking, and the longer one does it the greater (worse) the effects.
