<p>I was vegan for many years and during that time, I developed AU. I experimented a few years ago with a raw vegan diet but experienced no regrowth. Then, most recently, my son developed several medical conditions including wheat allergy and I am now non celiac gluten intolerant. We are glutenfree and I am still bald!</p>

<p>Kteacher, I am new to this with AA, I am going to a natural dr. who has me on a cleanse, its been three months, a long time, but my immune system is so whacky that I have had reactions to the natural supplements they use to go with the cleanse. (so I take one a day instead of three) I feel personally that it has had something to do with my AA. It all started in Jan. 2014, by March 2014 I had lost almost all my hair, just few straggly pieces. Shaved/cut it down to crew cut so it would grow…</p>
<p>Kteacher, I am new to this with AA, I am going to a natural dr. who has me on a cleanse, its been three months, a long time, but my immune system is so whacky that I have had reactions to the natural supplements they use to go with the cleanse. (so I take one a day instead of three) I feel personally that it has had something to do with my AA. It all started in Jan. 2014, by March 2014 I had lost almost all my hair, just few straggly pieces. Shaved/cut it down to crew cut so it would grow evenly, its slowly coming back, not all though. Lost hair on legs (not a bad thing!), arms. Still have facial hair. Anyway I have bought the book: THE PALEO APPROACH, REVERSE AUTOIMMUNE DISEASE AND HEAL YOUR BODY by Sarah Ballantyne, PHD. Its a great book, read it, it explains alot. She was a vegan before, she is not a total vegan now, she is also a scientist. Great book. Answers alot of questions. She has a cookbook coming out in a month to go with this book. </p>
<p>I had a salvia test, came back overwhelmingly that I had a reaction to most of the 96 foods on the list, some more than others, but I am now gluten free, dairy free. I am off some other foods while on this cleanse. They will slowly re-introduce them back into diet when I am cleansed. I do not know if it will help with my hair loss or help it grow back, make me go into remission, but a part of me, believes that something made my immune system react( i had a lot of inflammation in my system). I do already feel better mentally and physically from this change in my diet. </p>
