Hair Loss among signs of a weak immune system

immune-systemSome people seem to escape the cold and flu season with barely a sniffle.  And yet plenty of others seem to catch cold after cold; sidelined with a consistent cough or running nose all winter long.  So why the difference and what separates these two groups?  Research shows that it may come down to a few unexpected important reasons.

1. Sugar – Eating 100g of sugar (3 soda cans) can significantly hamper the ability of white blood cells to kill off bacteria for up to 5 hours afterward.

2. Dehydration – You may not realize it but you may not be drinking enough fluids.  There’s a reason they always say drink plenty of fluids when you’re sick.  Your body needs plenty of water to flush out toxins. How much you need on a daily basis varies from person to person.  You’re drinking the right amount if you’re urine is pale yellow.

3. Overweight – As you know excess weight is unhealthy for your heart, brain and organs.  But it’s also bad for your immune system.  A body mass index over 40, meaning morbidly obese can cause hormonal imbalance and inflammation that impairs the immune system’s ability to fight infection.

4. Dry Nose – Having a runny nose is actually a good defense against colds the flu. Mucus traps viruses and clears them from the body.  If you’re nasal passages are too dry, germ invaders have an easier time.

5. Stress – Long term stress weakens the response of your immune system.  If you’re stressed while you have the flu, your symptoms can get worse.

As a result, eating too much sugar, not drinking enough fluids, not supplying your body with the right foods and stress can all lead to excessive hair loss as well.  These along with a genetic condition can lead to rapid loss.  If you’re concerned about your hair loss and need some answers book a consultation at the Robert James Clinic in Beverly Hills.
