beta carotin cause of hairloss?

[Deleted member 1140]

i was taking 100k of beta carotene daily to get my storage filled up and realized im shedding a lot more hair than usual

i read on the internet that vitamin a can cause hair loss if taken too much, since beta carotene is linked to vitamin a, could that be the cause?

Overdosing on a single vitamin is never a good idea because it distorts balance in your body

I had same problem as you, I was overdsoing vitamin A ( same guide probaly lol ) and I started losing hair slowly. I stopped dosing it and my hair stopped falling, but my left side of hair didnt regrow

was it also beta carotene?

Yes multiple studies show that excess intake of beta carotene and vitamin A from animal foods or supplements will cause hair shedding.

Same thing happened to me, now on a very low vitamin A diet - following Garrett Smith's principles to remove as much of vitamin A that is stored in the liver.

Hard to get hypervitaminosis A from beta carotene alone though, it has very poor absorption rate. Too much liver intake would be a legit concern though

I’m just fine on 15-30mg daily beta carotene, I only took in 100 000 IUs for a short amount of time

was it also beta carotene?

Yes I was taking like 2-3 months everyday and I got very orange skin

You're overloading on vitamin A destroying your skin. Excess ViT A can cause hairloss.

What about just taking carrots? Aren't carrots supposed to be good for your skin? Will you go bald from eating carrots?

Carrots are overloaded with so much Vitamin A it's unreal. Even one big carrot is way too much technically speaking.

Yes technically carrots are good for skin but excess vitamin A dries your skin up and increases the production of pores.


And going bald for carrots? Unlikely but again too much Vitamin A leads to hairloss. That's why you have people who eat raw liver too much notice they're shedding hair.

Fuck, then it's either golden skin or keeping your hair right? Is there something that can be done? I won't be sunbathing fuck that shit

If you want golden skin just focus on eating an all round healthy fatty diet. good amount of natural carbs and fatty animal products

Veggies too but also be mindful of vitamin A overload.


And then you introduce foods like chia seeds, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, hemp seeds, etc


And then use some kind of skin care routine


Your skin will naturally start glowing if u follow the routine after 2 weeks.

Why those seeds? Are humans supposed to eat bird food?

They have fat and will cause your skin to glow.
