Side effects of low carb diet?!
Question: I am on a low carb diet and I have noticed that my hair is suddenly growing very very fast. Not that I'm complaining because it normally grows very slow. I'm just curious if anyone else has ever had this happen when on a low carb diet?

Your hair is made almost entirely of protein, so an increase in your protein intake is probably causing this. In fact, your nails are probably growing faster and stronger too.
Just make sure to get enough carbs--an all-protein diet is hard on your body.
i've done the low carb diet at two different times and didn't notice that side effect...
Never heard of that before...the major effect I've notices is loss of energy and major crankyness--totally craving a cracker or a piece of buttered bread...a hot dinner roll....OMG!
i wish, i'm bald. i feel better in general eating low carb
