Samantha Busch breaks her old habit

Kyle Busch’s better half has been battling alopecia, an auto-immune disorder, for years. The symptoms first appeared in 2022, when large chunks of hair came off and Samantha Busch went to see an expert. What followed became an arduous journey of looking for possible solutions, including red-light therapy and various treatments. While Samantha suffered hair loss, she did not shy away from showcasing her battle to the world. Currently, both Samantha and her fans can rejoice in a significant milestone. But for that, she had to let go of a crucial dietary habit she undertook as a teenager.

Samantha Busch used to avoid having heavy red meat for 25 long years. But she reversed that trend in December. And guess what, it worked wonders for her hair in mere months! Busch comprehensively explained her dietary changes in a recent string of Instagram stories.

“What I do on the holistic side from a diet standpoint is I’ve added in so much good fats, I eat more fats than I ever have in my entire life… I always eat red meat again, I aim for about 150 grams of protein a day. I’m eating things with good nutritional fat like olive oil, salmon, avocados, nuts, and things like that,” said Samantha Busch.

This marks her fearless drive to overcome any obstacle, even if it means, sacrificing a lifestyle habit. Samantha Busch gave further information about her medicinal supplements. “On the medical side, I take oral spare lactose and then I take a compounded minoxidil finasteride…and when my scalp feels irritated, I take tacrolimus. I’m doing the minoxidil three times a week and the tacrolimus once a week.”

However, she admitted that the medical supplements are not enough. “I fully believe that it is a mix of medicine and holistic. I have tried to go off both and both don’t mark… People are like, oh it’s just the medicine. It’s not… because I tried to get off of it and I made it ten days before my hair started falling out again.”

Clearly, Samantha Busch is onto a fresh new chapter in her journey. Plus, she is showcasing her glittering new form in a recent event.
