Hey all,
I was wondering about the atkin's diet and male pattern hair loss? I am a 28 year old man going bald and just recently started on the atkin's diet. I was wondering if eating carbohydrates has anything to do with the speeding up of male pattern hair loss? I know there have been studies done where eating carbohydrates is linked to acne, PCOS in women (which leads to excess hairiness and male pattern hair loss in some), hyperinsulinemia, and know that those with these conditions are more likely to go bald. Does anyone think there may be a correlation between eating excessive carbohydrates and male pattern hair loss? I often see bald men walking around with the big "sugar" bellys and tried to put two and two together. Or does eating the excess meat on this diet (especially red meat) cause a man to go bald faster? Any thoughts out there from the men with receding hair lines? Thank You for your time
