Hair Loss and Herbs

There are many causes of hair loss. It might be inherited from generation to generation, in result of an unhealthy diet causing oxygen not being delivered to cells in our body, and aging. Prescription and over-the-counter medication have offered some success, but today many people turn to seek help from herbalists for cost effectiveness and side effects.
Traditionally, herbs have been around for over thousands of years and offer much success to prevent or cure diseases well before the discovery of western medicine. Here are some herbs thathave been proven in treating hair loss and promoting hair growth
