You might notice that you are having a few
random hairs to a handfuls of hair falling out. If you are at
the age that you might naturally be loosing your hair, don't
worry about this too much. On the other hand, if you don't
have a family history of baldness and you are becoming more
bald than a billiard ball, it is probably from your diet.
Anxiety can also cause hair loss. This is
true in both men and women. I would suggest that you go to
your doctor if you are feeling nervous and your hair is
falling out. You might also notice that your sleeping patterns
aren't what they used to be. Having problems falling asleep?
Do you find yourself feeling tired even after eight hours of
sleep? Well, chances are it is your diet.
Are you having a hard
time getting it up? This very well could be due to
diet. I also notice that if I drink too much coffee that I
have trouble getting erections. It does sound weird, but I do
believe there is a link between diet and sexual function.
Do you feel
depressed? Most people feel depressed from time to
time. Simply feeling depressed isn't a reason to be alarmed.
If on the other hand you are feeling depressed for long
amounts of time and you have no reason to be depressed, it
could be your diet. A diet high in fat can lead to depression.
While this should be common sense, it really isn't. I mean, we
tend not to think about diet and mental illness together. If
you are eating a high fat diet, it will make you feel run down
and depressed. Also, it will make you gain weight. This is a
reason in itself to be depressed.
Does your skin look
leathery? This could be due to getting too much sun
or not eating the right things. A diet high in fat can make
your skin look like leather. Are you cranky or very irritable?
That very well could be because of diet. You feel awful
because you aren't getting the right stuff for your body. Also
when our diet goes, we tend to replace it with other things.
Chances are you are loading up on caffeine. That will make you
cranky too.
Do you have the shakes
all the time? Are you nervous and don't have a
reason to be? When our stomachs get empty, we get the shakes.
It is one of the methods that our bodies use to tells us it
needs some fuel. If you feel this way and you aren't eating,
you might think that it is from circumstances that surround
you. If you are being nervous and it is creating problems,
then everything is going to go down hill. What started out as
simply not eating, boiled over onto something totally
different.
Do you constantly feel that you are fat? Have
you looked in the mirror lately. If you are getting fat but
you aren't eating more in volume, it could be a sign. You
might be eating too much junk food. Sometimes when we have
problems eating right, we go to what tastes good. What tastes
good tends to be things that aren't very good for us. This is
true if we just got out of a depressing situation like a death
in the family or a divorce.
I would suggest that if you suffer from any
of the following things, you should talk to your doctor. Tell
him what your diet is and how you feel. There could be an
underlining problem, such as mental illness or a health
condition.
It is important to
understand that there is a difference between bad diet and
health problems. Chances are it is just because you
aren't eating right. On other hand, there might actually be
something wrong. It is always better to be safe than sorry.
