I had big bald spots after losing 70% of my hair, I regrew it without medication, I know the best supplement to take
AN alopecia sufferer has revealed how she was able to regrow her hair without any medical treatments.
She lost 70 percent of her hair over five months due to alopecia areata but managed to grow it all back after researching natural remedies.
Deepa Berar (@deepa.berar) has garnered over 14,000 followers on TikTok, where she shares hair and beauty advice.
She took to the social media platform to reveal how she transformed her shedding locks and regrew her bald patches.
She shared photos of her visibly thin hair back in 2016 as she explained that she didn’t use steroid creams, injections, or minoxidil to restore its health.
“And if you’re wondering if I just used rosemary oil, no,” Deepa said.
“Hair growth has so much more to do with what’s going on inside of your body than just hair loss.”
She said her hair was “non-stop shedding” and “super thin” when her hair loss was at its worst.
She realized that she could transform her tresses by changing what she eats after researching alternatives to doctor-prescribed treatments.
“I was pretty much eating the standard American diet,” she explained.
“I was going out on the weekend and having drinks with my friends.
“Just doing the typical stuff that we all do but I had chronic stomach issues, eczema, brain fog, and random headaches all the time.
“I did a ton of research on autoimmune diseases and hair loss and what I came to realize was that a lot of our health issues stem from our gut health.
“I started to eat in a way that supported my gut health.
“A lot of organic foods, a lot of grass-fed non-GMO proteins, and a lot of green vegetables.
“And for supplements what I did was focus on Vitamin D3 with K2. That is one of the best vitamins for hair growth.
“As well as getting out and making sure that I got a lot of walks and a lot of destressing.”
The video racked up thousands of likes after going viral as many people were able to relate to her battle with hair loss.
Viewers took to the comment section revealing their hair began to fall out due to health problems such as covid.
