Low Carb - A Hair Tonic?

(Peter - Don't Fear the Fat ) #1

I’ve had some great results with Keto / Carni but I didn’t expect hair colour to be one.
I’m not actually bothered about my hair, I’ve been going grey (then white) since I was 30 years old, I’ve only every known hair colour go in one direction, lighter.
A few weeks ago I asked Mrs Pjam if my I have some black hairs, ‘You wish’, I think was the reply.
Anyway, about 2 weeks ago she said, ‘your hair really is going darker’! And today there’s no question.
It’s not getting thicker mind you … but then I’m not discounting anything lol

Interesting! You mean your already grey hair has gone darker?
My existing grey hasn’t changed but the rest of it is much darker

Yes, I’d been grey for many years before low carb. Probably took 10 months before a noticeable change

It’s a myth that we can’t reverse that, you know “Big Dye” LOL. But seriously, grays can be reversed. Mine wasn’t from diet, I was all drugged up when mine happened, but it still happened, a handful of different things known for that. Not even what I was going for, it was a side effect, I was going for skin actually and I didn’t notice until I regrew a beard and all my facial hair was the correct color again. My facial hair had a ton of grays and I’d dyed it since me early-mid 20’s. That happened about 5yrs ago, so I was in my late 30’s then.

Fo-Ti was one of them, and it’s has a legend in Chinese medicine for that, but I was also using GHK-Cu (copper skin peptide) and HGH. So no way to know what did it, or if it was the combination, but they went back!
