3 Causes of Dandruff

The dreaded “D” word… dandruff! It’s a tricky condition that’s oftentimes difficult to treat.

It can be uncomfortable, frustrating, and even embarrassing! Here are 3 causes:

1

Dry Air Some people only experience a flaky, itchy scalp only during the colder months. This can oftentimes go away on its own during the warmer seasons.

2

Yeast or Fungal Overgrowth Fungal overgrowth, like from Malassezia or Candida, can feed off the oils (or sebum) on your scalp. These are yeast-like fungi that love humid, moist environments.

3

Chronic Illness or Medical Conditions Those with chronic illnesses, gut health imbalances, poor circulation, nervous system conditions, or compromised immune systems are at a higher risk.
