A member asked:
I started noticing hair thinning, and the only new things that i was taking in my life were colostrum and zinc gluconate 50mg, what should i do ?

HAIR THINNING: Heredity contributes to it. Some sickness like sle , skin disorders, stress, etc should be ruled out. The best thing to do is consult a dermatologist. Could be side effects of what you are taking now ?
