Re: Itchy scalp and losing hair! Sharing observations and looking for tips.

Thank you very much for the message, username10. I just placed the order for the book on Amazon. I'm prepared to modify my diet--and have even begun doing so over the last few months. I'm glad I can start getting more specific instead of conducting my own experiments about what I should or shouldn't eat.

A general question: How do I know if I have Psoriasis or Seborrheic Dermatitis ? Is there a way to definitively diagnose this? The symptoms are so similar. Or is treatment for both so similar anyway that it's just worth going down the road of this regiment to get either of these conditions under control?

Have you tried coconut oil on the scalp? This thread piqued my interest with that treatment which I'm experimenting with at the moment:
