While I feel it is to late for me, I have read where some people have had good results from going gluten free.  If I was given this information 42 years ago, I would give it a try.  Seriously why not?  Eating a more healthy diet is good no matter if you get your hair back or not and if you get your hair back, bonus!

I feel like it has helped me. I am constantly trying to balance what the medical doctors and research tell me with what the nutritionists and holistic doctors say. First, alopecia is an autoimmune disease and it has to go through the disease process, which means you would not see results for a long time. Keep it up. I have been following a diet that is gluten and dairy free, organic, mostly plant based with some wild caught fish, organic chicken  and grass fed beef and I take supplements such as a multi-vitamin, biotin, B-12, probiotic, etc.. After losing all hair, including eyebrows and eyelashes, I now have everything back. My eyebrows and eyelashes are dark and fine, and the hair on my head came back white but it is now starting to change back to brown. I know I am better because I have less inflammation and I feel great. Only time will tell, and it certainly doesn't work for everyone, but it did seem to help me. I am hoping to be wig free in the next 6 months and that would be a beautiful thing.

Hi, I'm doing a little of the same and trying to đo IV vitamin therapy. It sobs like we have different types of A but no matter what changing your diet will help you feel better and cope better. I'm also seeing an integrative dr at Lifespan which I feel has been a good step to finding and eliminating root causes. It's a slow process. Please feel free to contact me and we can talk if you want.

Hi, I have also chosen a nutritional approach. The Paleo Autoimmune Approach as written about by Sarah Ballantyne is scientifically based and very logical to why the body is inflamed. This is different from the Vegan approach that I believe can still have offending foods and not enough nutrition without meat. I highly recommend you read her book and her web page is Paleo Mom. I feel great, the inflammation at my hair line is lessening and everyone says I look great (I believe I have lost a lot of inflammatory puffiness) . I have been doing this for 2 months and continue with a lot of confidence. (I have frontal fibrosing alopecia). Good luck.......
