The body makes morphine out of codiene - this is how it works :)

Heroin - the hairloss drug we've all been waiting for :punk:

Yes, if you're a fungus :)

:punk:

It's things like this that these studies miss - any discussion of "better" or "worse" really has to take factors like this into account to mean anything.

Oh, I agree, us westerners eat far too much in the way of refined sugars. Reducing this is a good idea, not only for hair but for general health. But I was answering Amilcar's post: That's not healthy at all. Even medically supervised Ketogenic diets include a small amount of fruit because...

You're going to end up putting more of the carrier on your head with the 2%, to make it up to the 5% strength. And, as we know, the carrier can be quite irritating.

Yes it can - Ketosis. It's no good for you though, unless you have a pressing medical need (i.e., drug resistant epilepsy).

I doubt that Estrogen is bad for hair. After all, women have lots of estrogen and plenty of hair.

Okay, so you won't die because you'll force your body into ketosis. So, strictly speaking, you're correct, glucose is not completely essential. However, without it, your breath will stink of sh1t, you'll get kidney stones, and your bones will demineralise. You'll also take another step away...

Because it's an essential nutrient... as are fat, proteins, etc. etc.

Sugar = inflammation = hairloss, I'll grant you that. But what's good for your hair is often not good for the rest of the body...

If you can tolerate the liquid, use that as it is very cheap and effective. Unfortunately, it gave me what looked like severe dandruff. The foam never gave me any problems whatsoever.

Good luck with that my man :punk:

There's certainly nothing healthy about a free-of-sugar diet.
