let's talk about the real cause and cure for your dandruff I'm going to talk about what it is the current treatment for it and what's really behind dandruff as well as a really good solution how about that what is dandruff very simply it's scaly flaky scalp okay you have the layers of skin in the scalp that are flaking off prematurely normally there's a about a month cycle where the skin cells in your scalp develop and then Slough off with dandruff they're sluffing off every week okay seven days instead of a whole month okay so we'll talk about why that is but very simply if you ask anyone what dandruff is um they'll probably show you these little flaking skin cells on their shoulders and this is why the number one treatment for it is Head and Shoulders which they're using a certain chemical zinc perome zpt which is an antifungal okay and it's also antibacterial so it will kill microbes in your scalp and it does get rid of dandruff at least temporarily now the problem with this treatment is that it's banned in Europe because apparently it does cause some toxicity to the reproductive organs okay like all chemicals and medications there's always different side effects there is a a certain fungus that they isolated being behind this whole problem and that microbe is called malesia it is a fungus that has gone Rogue all right it's part of our normal flora that we have on our skin and it's really the overgrowth and how this fungus morphs into a kind of a pathogenic microb when the condition or environment changes okay like all microbes um they live in communities and there's a lot of different diversification of microbes that are inside our body and on our skin and when we have this imbalance we get um certain microbes that change their form and they do weird things and they also cause our own immune system to react with certain defenses and there's inflammation that occurs and collateral damage so at the very root of dandruff there's really an imbalance in the microflora on your scalp where we have a kind of a morphed fungus that is no longer friendly so it's creating an immune reaction and what people don't realize is that you have not just friendly bacteria you have friendly yeast you have friendly fungus on your body and inside that is helping you okay just like the soil you don't just have friendly bacteria you also have friendly yeast and fungus that without that yeast or fungus the plants can't dig their roots and absorb the nutrients as well so the fungus is just as important as the bacteria in doing its job without the fungus in the soil they can't uh dissolve the minerals to really pull it in and allow the roots to absorb it into the plant and apparently this fungus that grows on your scalp um eats lipids okay it eats fats it eats the sebum which is the oil that comes from the oil gland around the fules around your hair fules but what's interesting about this fungus is it doesn't like all the fats okay it only likes the saturated fats it likes to eat triglycerides it doesn't like to eat the omega-6 fatty acids and that's very interesting because the omega-6 fatty acids are the inflammatory acids so personally I wouldn't eat the omega-6 I would definitely eat the saturated fats but not the Omega 6 because these are the inflammatory uh typee fats which has been linked to inflammation which is exactly what's happening on your scalp is just the tip of the iceberg and what's really going on it's happening in your gut Flora now obviously if you affect the gut you affect the skin you affect a lot of other things but an isolated symptom of dandruff uh on your scalp there's probably a lot of other things going on for example um there's a huge correlation between people developing dandruff and just after they had some type of antibiotic right so you're taking this antibiotic internally it's killing off your microf in your gut and then you're ending up with a systemic problem on your skin the same thing happens when you take an antibiotic right you kill off the bacteria and you end up with a yeast infection which can happen in your mouth I mean just because you affect one part of the body doesn't mean that it can't uh be systemic and start invading other parts of your body we do know this antibiotic kills only bacteria it doesn't kill viruses it doesn't kill fungus or yeast and this is why it's very important to understand the microbiome you have a lot of different types of microbes growing in your gut and on your skin and you have to understand that certain microbes like bacteria keep the fungus in check keep the yeast in check and if you wipe out the bacteria then the yeast and fungus can grow at a very very high rate what do you think would be a good solution to dandruff well why don't we just add the bacteria back in to the skin okay that sounds pretty good right and just so you know um the solutions that I'm coming up with I found while searching patents for natural remedies to dandruff which is actually quite fascinating and I'll put those links down below I get get so much great data uh from patents because when someone puts a patent out they give you all this amazing research first so it helps to consolidate a lot of data that I probably wouldn't find if I'm just doing searches on Google so the first remedy that I'm going to recommend and there's quite a few different things you can do for dandruff but it is to put back in the microflora to keep this fungus in check and I'm going to recommend you get that micro from kimchi okay now you're going to be using just the juice of it the fluid not the actual you know the Cabbage or anything like that you get one teaspoon and you mix it in some water okay and when you take your shower okay you use your shampoo whatever right when you get done you can topically put this diluted solution into your scalp you rub it into your scalp and you wait for 15 minutes you go back into the shower or the sink and rinse it out what you're doing is just putting a probiotic back into your scalp there's a lot of other things you can do there's other options okay I'll just tell you a few um two teaspoons of olive oil with a half a teaspoon of coconut oil which has lauric acid which is really good as an antifungal you can rub that into your scalp before you go to bed then you wake up take a shower and then you can just clean your hair but the point is there are other things other than just putting this probiotic back into your your scalp you can use a diluted tea tree oil diluted garlic oil you can use diluted oregano oil there's so many different things you can use as a natural antibiotic without the side effects now the next thing I'm going to recommend is to really fix your diet because I really believe that if you don't fix your diet this dander probably just going to keep coming back because it's coming from an imbalance in your gut and one thing about yeast or fungus okay or candida those microorganisms love sugar they are carboholics I mean think about fermentation okay making alcohol vinegar um yogurt all these fermentation type processes what are they fermenting they're fermenting carbohydrates sugar guess what type of diet you should be on low carb no sugar diet okay and then of course do the healthy version of the ketogenic diet which is uh low omega-6 fatty acids so I would avoid the soy oil the canola the corn oils which are very inflammatory there are a lot of people who get on the ketogenic diet and their dandruff goes away without even doing anything else so you should know that I would also start eating foods that have probiotics sauerkraut kimchi kefir are just a few number three change your shampoo if you're using a typical shampoo and a conditioner if you read the back of the label there's a lot of different chemicals and a lot of these chemicals are antimicrobial so it's very similar into putting insecticides pesticides herbicides into the soil it's going to disrupt the microbiome well the same thing that's going to happen when you start putting these chemicals on your hair not to mention some people use a lot of hairspray they use chemicals with dyes they use uh their hair dryer with high Heats all these things affect the microbiome of your scalp so if you find a shampoo and conditioner that's clean that doesn't have chemicals and if you want a a good one I will put a link down below but this is just something that people uh need to be aware of and number four get a shower filter that filters out at least chlorine and maybe even fluoride chlorine and tap water City water and fluoride are very very irritating to your microbes on your surface of your skin and when you get a good shower filter you may find that your skin not just on your scalp improves but the rest of your skin and your face it might find an improv in your acne you might find that just the overall tone of your skin is much much better now the next most important video for you to watch would be the one that I did on acne okay relating to this topic check this out I put it up right here
