    TLDR Young people are losing hair due to stress, poor diet, pollution, and lack of sleep, but it can be treated with supplements and scalp treatments.
    The document discusses the increasing prevalence of hair loss in young individuals, which is now occurring at ages as young as the teenage years, rather than after the age of 45 as seen in previous generations. Dr. Rajesh Rajput attributes this trend to various factors including stress from a competitive lifestyle beginning in school, poor nutrition due to a trend towards eating less and choosing foods based on taste rather than nutritional value, exposure to pollution and toxins, and insufficient sleep leading to inadequate detoxification and repair in the body. The paper emphasizes that this type of hair loss is not hormonal and can be corrected with nutritional supplements and scalp treatments that strengthen hair roots. The treatment, known as Hair Fact therapy, has been shown to not only control hair loss but also stimulate the growth of new hair within 2 months without side effects. The document suggests that a balanced diet, adequate water intake, sufficient sleep, regular exercise, and scalp hygiene are important for preventing hair loss.
