Seventh Day Adventists are a large population studied many times for their health because of strict plant based diet. The men are not immune to male pattern baldness.
depending on the source, country, and how long the cows are kept pregnant, it could affect hormonesI don't know if dairy does anything to hair, Mr, but I know most people think it's some kind of protein, but no. It's supposedly as bad as carbs.
Since 10 years. And my hair loss is more agressive since 2 years.
You don't meet the criteria then, because you were already an adult (around 22 years) by the time you turned vegan. Same as Moby
It's actually quite an interesting topic raised by the OP. I haven't seen any hard scientific data for hair loss in people raised as vegans or vegan since childhood
So what is the point of this thread. Most people reading it are adults.
I know a guy, he's vegan (his parents too) and he's losing his hair.
Don't worry guys, once someone finds a vegan from birth who has hair loss, he'll continue to increase the criteria till the odds of finding such a person are one in a trillion. This is the epitome of pseudo science.
When I visited a village in Vietnam last December, I noticed that the males had very good hairline for their age. From what I remember when I attended an event where the family invited the whole village to celebrate adulthood of the child, I saw none bald men. Those who looked age 40 and above basically had a head full of hair at probably NW2. I concluded that it got to do with their diet of drinking tea as we all know that green tea has some chemicals that help in anti hair loss. But in general, Vietnamese has a culture of drinking tea, similar to the chinese. Just to note that theirs are not the green tea drank by the Japanese but those brown colored leaves similar to Chinese tea. So probably diet does play a part. More recently I was wondering if the trend of more younger people starting balding early got to do with our diet such as chicken where we know that they are injected with growth hormones to help them grow. I may be wrong though.
