*simple tips for growing long, healthy hair*

Hair follicles need adequate cellular energy to function properly.  In times of stress, the body prioritizes vital organs like the brain, heart, and lungs.  Energy is used up supporting vital functions, leaving vanity aspects of the body like skin, hair, and nails suffering.  This is why hair loss is a common symptom of stress.

Reducing stress and inflammation while nourishing the body to produce an adequate amount of cellular energy is the best strategy for overall health, including hair health and growth.

Avoiding chemical products, coloring, and habitual use of heat on hair helps it to stay healthy and grow as well.

There are many plant and animal sources for nourishing the body and reducing stress.  This isn't an in-depth post on hair health - just a note, so I won't cover these sources exhaustively.  But I will mention two food supplements I consume daily for overall health:

DESICCATED BEEF LIVER - https://www.perfectsupplements.com/Perfect-Desiccated-Liver-p/desiccatedliver120.htm?Click=622cf3e361f39&a_bid=1eef7184

5 MUSHROOM BLEND WITH REISHI - https://www.earthley.com/product/5-mushroom-super-blend-capsules/ref/hopewellheights/

Use discount code HOPEWELLHEIGHTS10 for 10% off both of these supplements.

Reishi mushrooms, which are included in the blend I take, protect against and reverse female pattern hair loss by inhibiting DHT (dihydrotestosterone) - a testosterone byproduct that binds to receptors in hair follicles, causing the follicles to shrink.  Reishi is also very calming and effective for reducing stress so it's great for the entire childbearing season.  When taken during pregnancy and breastfeeding, reishi has a calming effect on baby too.

I'm Steph, wife of John & mom of 4 living on a 5th generation homestead. My husband's great-grandparents bought this farm in rural Missouri in 1942. My husband was supposed to take the farm over after high school - but he decided to go a different direction and moved out on his own. At that time he said he'd never get married or have kids. But here we are - 4 kids later and back on the farm. I grew up in town - so farm life has been a new adventure for me and I absolutely love it. I'm learning as I go and opting out of as many broken systems as I can along the way. We've lived here almost five years now, we homeschool our kids here, raise and grow more of our own food all the time, and our last baby was even born here on the farm - my first home birth. Learn with me as I share glimpses into our life on the farm.
