Just how important is diet?

Lets get real now,

 

is diet paramount to stop, or at least massively slow hairloss, along with the big 3 that we should all be using?

 

I ask because I see some morbidly obese people with a kids hairline, and yet some of the healthier people i've met in life have had pretty noticeable hairloss.

It's not important in regards to MPB in my opinion. If your hair is 3 feet long and you want it to be silky, maybe. But in terms of patterned loss, I'm not a believer. You'll see alcoholics, crach heads, 600 pound men, coal miners (toxic breathing), smokers, baseball and football players (hats all of the time), Presidents (stress), all with thick heads of hair. IMO, it's only about genetics and dht blockers.

Hmm thats what I also believe. but i just wonder if there is some ground inbetween the two beliefs, and that if you feed your body a lot of certain things, it can drastically help the situation, beyond the DHT blockers.

 

Edit, especially with things like nettle root (supposed DHT blocking supplment) and more recently, reading that seaweed can greatly help with stopping patterned balding, in the same way that lots of protein, eggs etc will.

I agree that it probably wont effect MPB, unless you have a completely TERRIBLE diet of junk food....then maybe it will speed things up....

It's important for several things. Baldness isn't one of them.

Baldness depends on your Genetics, if you have MPB Genes, no matter how healthy you live or how Good food you eat ,you gonna loose hair. One of my close friend who is into his late 30s has NW1 hairline and his diet is mostly Dominoes , Diet coke or KFC, still no sign of hairloss, forget hairloss he doesn't even have a single white hair!!!
