White Sugar Has Cured My Dandruff

[Lucenzo01]

Just sharing with you guys my good news. I have been suffering with dandruff my entire life. One week of white sugar in big amounts my head is clean. Fruit failed miserably when I tried it.

Good luck to everyone.

8 oz/day.

Lucenzo01, is that your only source of carb all day or do you eat anything else on top of the 8 oz?

Amazing what happens when you give the body some energy

Yes, curious about this as well. Is it still working for you?
And did you just add the sugar to your diet or substitute it for your carbs?

someone else said white sugar causes dandruff. i dont know what to believe!

Obviously, the anti sugar poster is a troll.

no they arent anti sugar, they just repeated what ray said which is that sugar will sap you off minerals and vitamins needed for processing it, like anything that increases metabolism, so for someone with dandruff issues too much sugar could cause more dandruff. that was their logic anyway, seemed to make sense

Doesn't really make sense because the sugar had nothing directly to do with the dandruff. It was a supposed lack of "minerals and vitamins" causing the dandruff and that could be caused by a million things, including maybe even too much or too little sugar.

heres the exact comment made, feel free to go and argue with the person who wrote it

"Dandruff is usually due to a poorly-functioning immune system. A common cause of that is a lack of zinc relative to copper. That's why Head and Shoulders shampoo works in many instances (it is rich in zinc).

Too much sugar can cause dandruff. Sugar does raise the metabolic rate, but at the same time, you are draining vitamins and minerals at a faster rate, so consuming a lot of sugar as Peat says will lead to vitamin and mineral deficiencies unless you're eating a good amount of liver. But liver has more copper than liver, so it's not good for the zinc/copper situation."

Dandruff Overload

The same happens with me. When i eat to much sugar (+100g) dandruff simple dissapear.

Sorry for resurrecting this old stuff, but seems rather interesting. I have lots of dandruff...
How could I know, if I start eating more white sugar, if I'm overdosing on it?

Was that on top of your regular carb intake, or did you substitute that as your carb source?

Zinc. Retinol. B Vitamins And Vitamin E are at the center of this issue in all aspects.


For the past year ive reported resolution of my dandruff sometimes 3 days. Sometimes a week a month. But it always came back. But either a combination and experimentation of the above would help and rotating supplementation would help.

Sometimes retinol would do the opposite. I started thinking how is it these things sometimes help and sometimes dont. Perhaps another factor is at play. Perhaps sugar. My understanding is sugar is necessary for good thyroid. I noticed after taking a high dose amount of retinol. I got cold real cold. I also noticed people with sebboreic dermatitis always complain about sugar.

I also noticed when my extremities are warm after drinking. My digestion is better much much better. I noticed this on many many occasions. Looking at my stools they were always well formed and solid. Happened all the time after a night of 5-6 shots of alcohol.

Alcohol increases metabolism.

People reported that their dandruff improved with thyroid. It seems to me this is entirely a metabolic problem and perhaps if none of the cofactors help then add sugar. I will be trialing this starting today increasing carb consumption tremendously. So far i have consumed today about 1oz of sugar

Fascinating, what is the condition of your scalp besides the dandruff? Do you have any hair loss issues?

You said you tried retinol and it not always working.
