Increasing fluids, HEALTHY HAIR SKIN AN NAILS plus ESSENTIAL 1(both sold by ProLabs online) Really worked, after trying 8 others that did nothing i noticed a Big stop in the amount of hair in my brush! THEN Also, keep track if exact amouts of protein! PROTEIN shots are Super easy to have in a pinch! EVEN LESS HAIR LOSS Your dr. Should check your B levels, and thyroid (or) hormones (if this stuff isnt helping), unfortunately the added stress of surgery+ the type of any WLS, and weight loss (combined with EVEN PERIMENOPAUSE) can Greatly increase hair thining or loss that otherwise (or minus) one or more if these (stressors) on the body one may not have noticed! PPHYTO B (is a super healthy sublingual suppliment)that helps with mild hormone peri menopause, and/or full blown changes you may need to ask your doctir about bio identical hormone replacement risks vs benefits, or add progesterone 21 days a month/ and or DHEA. FINALLY NO MORE HAIRLOSS AT ALL Add now it has begun TO TOTALLY SHINE AGAIN AND GROWING BACK!!!!! Of course These areas may not apply to the majority with hair loss, but anyone with a family history of early menopause, or long ten year peri menopause, SHOULD check on ALL areas! BEST TO KNOW! I found out rather late after almost 6 months of false assumptions hair loss was normal and all but requiring a wig, when then the same doctors FINALLY took me serious. Good luck!

Andrew lessman healthy hair,skin and hails 2 per day, Essential 1 (by the same person) HSN or his web ProCaps (i have contacted them about opening these capsules and they assured me it was safe and would not effect the affectiveness) i use Organic Flaxseed (walmart by vitamin section) for one type of omega 3s i also use a chewable fish oil omega 3s come from both nuts and fish each having their own benefits, i gradually increased the flaxserd started at a teaspoon am pm, and increased over a week til i was at 1 tablespoon am and 1 tbsp. Pm, dont cook with it, just plain is fine or in a shake oatmeal or whatever (tad bit buttery abit nutty) i honestly did all of these after spending big bucks on a naturpathy md visit. Hope it helps! Regrowth was slow, but i was glad the loss slowed first, then stopped.

I have lost almost half of my hair thickness/pony tail bands tell all..since, May banding. All labs were fine. The end of July started Andrew Lessmans healthy hair,skin and nails. I slowed up on the amount of loss within a week, and now i can feel teeny regrowth. I was super shocked by the amount. I wish someone had told me about this prior. I had been taking a very expensive biotin vit d3 and get B 12 shots monthly (have my whole life) but Not until i added this suppliment has my hair Ever been so healthy. I also take the essential 1, flaxseed oil 2Tbsp. Daily..but the last suppliment i added WORKed! At last. I open (all) capsules into cinn. Applesauce No problems if taken with a meal. Good luck! The sooner you address it the better it will go!

1st Fill today! Doing fine! Interested in sharing food-ideas for gluten intolerant and those with Celiacs! Started 247 down 226. Was BMI 35 at the get go..barely. Surgery Dothan, Alabama. Post surgery learned I was diabetic; had high liver enzymes; kidneys were bleeding some. Wow; that was even more of a confirmation that I did the right thing. But shocking. I never realized how blood pressure problems seemed to significantly effect those areas! Now; I am learning to eat slowly-be aware of what i am doing and how; I love feeling full sooner and being in 'control' of the desire to eat healthy and know its going to help. I do still; Hate the gas and gurgles-my GI system doesn't seem to sleep. Never did that before! Anyone in Alabama? Love to hear your story! Or advice!!!? Its all still brand new!

A bit confusing! I have Medicare & Tricare; went to Support group November! Loved the Center!!! Went to Seminar!!!! Made Appointment with Metabolic & Weight Loss Center; went today! Submitted general paper work (Insurance) & (Apnea-HTN-Severe Asthma)..had more -they stopped there! BMI 37 As i understood it-MEDICARE does NOT pre authorize ; and though it is my Primary (they may not pay); however they "expect" Tri-care to Pre authorize (? even aware of the fact that Medicare is Primary)-is that to be expected? How Many KNOW prior to surgery-that their Insurance will pay (and) What amount it will pay? Kinda nervous about getting hit with a big bill after! Thanks! I have had already: sleep apnea (repeated study) since I have a 5 yr history of-Recent EKG-In PT currently with Degenerative Disc disease/Osteoarthritis-(what will I need to get from PT -since I am already a patient thought-i-would ask??????) and have Internist and General Doctor; both whom will write letters/request approval for me. HELP! Full of MANY QUESTIONS!!!! Its a Maze and any direction sense appreciated -as I want to be INVOLVED and DO whatever I can to HELP press in the first time! (I lost 80 + lbs twice since 1999-and regained plus 130 each time)pretty well documented with Phentermine and Atkins (but not sure how to prove the last one))))

Hello! I have been thinking and researching Lap Band for a year now. I went to (a second seminar) recently near my home. The hospital is a "excellence" one my insurance(s) require. However, I have medicare -as primary and secondary Tricare. I was told Tricare would accept me sooner/faster. But at the seminar they are requiring a higher BMI 40 and 3 months of diet-exercise-nutritional behavior modification. I am 39.9 BMI with 4 severe problems-Asthma/Apnea/Osteoarthritis/High Blood pressure. (all over 5 years); lost weight twice with Atkins (regained 80+back within a year of each)effort. Can I make a appointment and (discuss this privately) with the hospital; or should i go with the flow? My main support person is out of state-a adult daughter/we are each others-support person(s) and really had hope to do this privately-with-one-another. Any ideas appreciated!
