There's many signs of aging that we might start to notice as we get older. One of those might be if you start to develop a receding hairline or a bald patch.
Experts say this is likely a combination of genetics and the effects of dihydrotestosterone (DHT). Currently, the most effective way to prevent hair loss is by blocking DHT using finasteride — a prescription hair loss medication - claim medics.
Some research also suggests that certain foods and supplements may be able to reduce your DHT levels. While adding certain foods to your diet isn’t likely to be as effective as treating hair loss using medication, prioritising DHT-blocking foods may enhance your efforts to reduce DHT and help you to keep as much of your hair as possible.
