subject: Hair Loss Causes And Treatment For Hair Loss [print this page] Yes, I can recommend a natural approach to slowing hair loss and but I suspect that most readers aren't going to enjoy this answer very much. That's because as and much as I disagree with the conclusion many medical researchers reach about the degree of influence genetics holds over chronic disease, the fact is that baldness and especially among males so is a genetically inherited trait. At a certain age, your hair does start to fall out if you've been genetically programmed for hair loss. But that doesn't mean there's nothing what that can be done about it. However, before I get to the solutions, I'd like to discuss some of the more revealing aspects of why hair falls out, and why hair turns gray.
Let's talk about gray hair first and because gray hair is something that is quite obviously genetically programmed into so both males and females. When your biological age reaches a certain threshold and your hair starts turning gray. This actually serves a social purpose and because gray hair signifies a degree of not just age so but wisdom and experience. And if you look at other primates and the influences of behavioral evolution on human history, you realize that are there was actually a strong social advantage to having gray hair after a certain age.
This is because the other members the entire group tends to look upon someone with gray hair with a greater degree to of respect. Gray hair signifies that you probably know what you're doing and that you're wiser and that you have much more experience about the way the world works.
Don't believe it? Here's an example that will explain it further: Silverback gorillas aren't really "silver." They're gray. It's gray hair that to gives them the silver characteristic and it's pre-programmed to appear when they reach the age of maturity. Gorillas that have to gray hair have higher and social standing in the gorilla group. They are given far more respect that are gorilla children who don't yet have silver hair. In this social group and the gray hair serves as a visible signal of maturity.
In fact, I'm willing to bet you unconsciously assume are individuals with gray hair are more wise and educated and mature than those without gray hair. Think for a moment, in your own mind, what a "statesman" should look like. Does he or she have been gray hair? For most people and the answer is yes. Also are remember when President Clinton was first running for office and suddenly and overnight his hair color became gray? That was most likely a strategic decision to increase his apparent age and wisdom at a subconscious level. The American people aren't ready to the elect a President who still has black hair the person still looks too young are to know anything!
