Protocol to regrow hair naturally
Have you noticed your hair thinning for no good reason? It could be caused by environmental stressors. We are all inundated constantly by environmental toxins and free radicals. And while it’s near impossible to avoid these toxins, there are ways to lessen the effects they have on our bodies. Below is a protocol to not only help you regrow and strengthen your hair, but this protocol also helps improve your skin and detox/balance your gut for overall health as well.

1. Drink filtered/alkaline water only. All day, every day. Did you know that disease (like cancers) and illnesses in general can not grow or survive in an alkaline state? Alkaline water also reduces inflammation and neutralizes acid in your blood stream. |

2. Boil 2 cups of filtered water with a hand full of organic raisins. Drink a cup first thing in the morning before anything else, and then the rest of it throughout the day. This is to flush the liver and blood of toxins. This also helps the skin and brain function. Do this 4 days a week. Why raisins, you may ask? Have you heard of Resveratrol? Resveratrol is a naturally occurring plant polyphenol compound found in grape skins that is a very powerful antioxidant with anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer and blood cholesterol lowering properties. It is highly beneficial in maintaining skin and hair health, as well as improving the body’s ability to produce red blood cells. Resveratrol is especially concentrated in raisins since they are dried grapes. Organic is key so that you’re not ingesting pesticides and other chemicals.

| 3. Add half a lemon and a tiny pinch of salt to at least 3 cups of water intake a day – you don’t have to add this to all the water you drink in a day, but it’s important to incorporate this into some of the water you drink each day. Lemon has beneficial phytonutrients, and works with the natural energetic charge of the body, to cleanse and detox, with anti-aging effects. The salt adds necessary trace minerals. Be sure to use REAL Himalayan salt (not pink colored salt) or Celtic flake salt to get the necessary benefits.

4. Make a tea with 1 sliced clove of garlic, ½” sliced ginger root, 1 clove, 1 anamu root teabag, 1 dandelion teabag, and 1 green teabag – steep all together in hot water for 5 minutes. Strain and drink. This is a great detox, anti-inflammatory, boost immune system and helps heal the gut. Do this at least 3 times a week. It may take some getting used to, as it’s kind of an “acquired taste”. For an added boost, consider taking digestive enzymes or a probiotic to help even more.

5. Incorporate an iron supplement If you’re not taking an iron supplement, you may want to consider incorporating into your supplement program. If you’ve had issues from taking iron supplements (constipation, etc) consider trying a different supplement. This one works well without the side affects: https://bestbeautyhacks.com/iron |

6. Eat 1/2 c beans a day. Plain with salt. Used dried beans, not canned as canned doesn’t have the nutritional value. Beans are considered a superfood because they are one of the most nutritious foods you can eat. Lentils are rich in polyphenols for anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits as well as a good source of Vitamin B, fiber, potassium and iron. Black beans are considered the “beauty bean” in some Asian countries as they are rich in anti-oxidants, brighten the complexion and aid in red blood cell production. Peruvian beans are rich in peptides which helps your skin retain collagen. Pinto beans are packed with protein and fiber, and help balance the digestive system. Try mixing it up for your palette as well as to benefit from all of these power house options!

7. Hair mask. Mash garlic with red onion to make a paste, add 1t. organic rosemary oil, 1t. organic castor oil and 1t. organic olive oil. Massage into scalp and work through to the ends of hair. The garlic and red onion are anti-bacterial and anti-fungal, while the rosemary oil, castor oil and olive oil increase circulation and condition the scalp and hair. Leave on for an hour. Shampoo at least 3 times to get the garlic and onion smell out. Do this twice a week.

Additional benefits of ingredients
Some of the extra benefits of these ingredients include:
Anamu root – increases brain function, decreases anxiety, anti inflammatory, enhance your immune system. Two phytochemicals found in the plant are directly linked to destroying cancer cells.
Dandelion root – rich in Vitamin C and soluble fiber, it helps build good gut bacteria and gently moves toxins and stagnation out of the digestive system to improve health
Green tea – has the most powerful anti-oxidants, which help reduce inflammation
Garlic – is considered medicinal for heart disease, lowering cholesterol and preventing cancer. It also improves brain health, digestion, skin health
While this protocol may seem daunting, consider challenging yourself to follow this for a week and see if it makes a difference in how you feel or if you can see an improvement in your skin. Remember, this not just for your hair health but also your skin and overall health. It will take longer (an average of 3 months) to see new hair growth, and about 4 weeks for your skin to cycle – although you could see improvements much sooner. But you should be able to tell a difference in how you feel within a few days to a week.
