Maria Rivera explains the link between gut health and hair health

In this episode, at the suggestion of a podcast listener, I discuss a topic that at first seems like it doesn't really have anything to do with gut health - hair loss. But you'll be surprised to hear how many things are connected to gut health!
Hair loss or very thin or even unhealthy hair is something you suffer a lot from. Hair is difficult to hide and in our society it is one of the beauty features that people pay attention to.
And precisely because this is the case, I would like to use this interview to show you what hair loss has to do with gut health and what you can do to improve your hair health.

To do this, I have invited a specialist in the field of hair and holistic health to the podcast, Maria Rivera. Maria is a natural hairdresser, hair growth specialist and also a graduate of our Microbiome and Metabolome Consultant course.
In this interview, she talks about the connection between gut health and hair health. She gives us an assessment of how long it takes for hair togrow back or become stronger. And at the end, she has a practical tip for your scalp and hair that you can implement immediately.

Questions for Maria Rivera

You are a natural hairdresser, what exactly is that?

Do you see a connection between gut health and hair?
What health conclusions can you draw from your clients' scalps and hair?
A podcast listener asked me to discuss the topic of allopecia, or circular hair loss. What can you say about this?
How do your customers react when they come to a hairdresser or hair growth specialist and you talk about nutrition or gut health?
Have you been able to help people with circular hair loss? What would you recommend?

In our conversation, Maria also emphasizes the importance of toxin-free hair care products. This is because all kinds of cosmetics, including shampoos, are often used thoughtlessly.

She also recommends products such as our B active, with activated B vitamins, alkaline powder, alkaline bath, arctiamine amino acids, L-glutamine, probiotic Arktibiotic Compens, vitamin D3 drops, bitter elixir and Basis Care plus.
