Fresh veggies might put off hair loss

Mediterranean diet: fresh herbs and fresh vegetables decrease the risk of Androgenetic Alopecia in males - Archives of Dermatological Research

It is well established that Androgenetic Alopecia (Androgenetic Alopecia) occurs in genetically predisposed individuals but little is known of its non-genetic risk factors. The aim of the study was to investigate the role of the Mediterranean diet in determining the risk of Androgenetic Alopecia. A hospital-based case-control...

Someone buy this study and tell us what it says. @Caillou it was posted on the other forum by your favorite nazi

>italian researchers. f*** ok that makes me think it could be biased lol

 

[Caillou]

He's coping. Diet has no effect on hair loss, or else the Greeks with their "Mediterranean diet" wouldn't have the highest rate of hair loss in the world. Only extreme things like smoking or alcohol which mess up your hormones might have any effect. But at the end it's 90% genetics. My uncle is 56, smokes a pack of cigarettes a day and eats like sh*t and has an ultra thick NW1.5

Skimmed it.

It's a case control study which intends to provide evidence that Mediterranean diets reduce hair loss.

They seem to be ambiguous about the mechanism, what they mention is:
- phytochemicals present in fresh herbs and raw vegetables have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. (They mention that this has health benefits, not sure if they argue this is good for hair.)
- said phytochemicals contribute to estrogenic activity
- said phytochemicals reduce 5ar activity.

Overall, I think this study is weak evidence that the Mediterranean diet does something against hair loss, but I doubt that it's very important, because a single observational study like this provides weak evidence at best, the effects of diet probably are mild at best, pharmaceuticals are far more effective, and also because I think there are other reasons to eat a Mediterranean diet anyway. I think there is much stronger evidence out there that the Mediterranean diet is the healthiest diet around anyway, so any hair benefits, especially based on a single case control study, seem much less significant by comparison.

You bought it?

I got access because of my job.

You're an academic?

Looked up one of the researchers and heres another study by her:

Edit:wtf on the similar part theres tons of studies on lifestyle factors with baldness, never knew they actually looked into this stuff, I'm glad.

Clarification: I'm doing odd jobs for the (((Elders of Zion))), they give me access to lots of things. Paywalled scientific journals, Eyes Wide Shut-esque sex parties, etc etc.

I think you're just jealous because of the sex parties.

'To be pulled by the strings of desire (...)'
And all that.

Yeah I dunno bro, I think Marcus Aurelius was also jealous because of the sex parties.

With all due respect to the great philosopher king, of course.

He was the f*****g emperor of Rome. He could have had the mother of all sex parties, if he had wanted to. But he chose not to. Because he was a virtuous man and redpilled.

Beautiful anglo speciman...Jesus Christ what happened on that trash island genetically...

Well, being an emperor can get busy and stressful, though. If you spend decades fighting wars against the Marcomans or whoever, that leaves limited time for debauchery.

There's no greater opportunity for debauchery, than during a successful campaign.

 

[disfiguredyoungman]

But then you would have to lower yourself to the savagery of the Germans.

Nothing unusual for a Roman, in fact they went far below that on many occasions. Suitable for many other emperors, but not for him.

 

[disfiguredyoungman]

Unsurprising that the descendants of the savages/Germans are trying to relativize the barbarism of their ancestors in their history classes. Too convenient.

Well, what barbarism are we talking of? The Germans coquered Rome after centuries of imperialist agression against them and integrated into that polity. The Romans genocided Celts, Etruscans and Carthago and had virgins raped in the colosseum by baboons for entertainment, or even their own citizens fed to lions when Calligula felt bored.
Barbar is a meaningless term, it's a phonetic stultification of a language Greeks did not understand and never bothered to learn and that's really all there is to that word.

 

[disfiguredyoungman]

Spoken like a true Germanic shill.

I'm gonna blow your Romaboo mind: The average lifespawn in the middle ages was significantly higher than during the time of Roman supremacy.
So, cope on.

 

[disfiguredyoungman]

Exactly what I would expect to be taught by the authorities in a world that has, after many embarrassing centuries, emerged from the ruins of the noble Imperium. After all, this is the same world in which one of the most popular cinematic myths depicts an interstellar version of the beautiful Empire as the ultimate evil.

I live on stolen land. I glance upon the ruins of the world that once was, with its gleaming spires and mighty citadels. I remember that such glory will never shine upon this world again, and shed a tear in silence.

Enough with the larp. It's a Romaboo world, since 2000 years. The Germanics larped as Romans, the Renaissance is a Romaboo larp, the Enlightenment is a Romaboo way of explaining the world. All despite the hard quantitative data I hinted at. It eats you up, but you hold feuilleton mainstream opinions. Live with it.

The impact of my fist up your arsehole

 

[disfiguredyoungman]

Easy pal, where's the Stoic philosophy suddenly gone?

I'm just saying you should contemplate it

 

[disfiguredyoungman]

Stoic philosophy, or your fist up my arsehole? I do not consent to the latter, and quite like the former, especially Seneca's writings.

Consent is not of importance. Anything that happens according to nature, can't worsen your character and everything that doesn't worsen your character should not preoccupy you negatively. You will have to accept that a fist will end up your rear end at some point in time and that it doesn't matter when. For time is just a fleeting illusion and all we have is the present moment.
