Marcelo Angulo, writer and facilitator, based in Sydney
He commenced his long journey of discovery through exercise and wellbeing at the tender age of 17. The catalyst event which placed him on this path was a closed head injury sustained in a car accident as a teenager.
Emerging from hospital a frail young man, he signed up for a gym membership to gain some weight and physical strength. This was the commencement of his learning and true understanding of the human body.
In his late twenty's, like many other men, he began losing hair. By early thirties he became increasingly concerned with hair-loss and took on a personal quest to overcome a personal challenge.
From the onset, Marcelo refused the thought of expensive promises or invasive treatments. His focus was on researching the cause and discovering a remedy, if any, instead of merely dealing with what he envisaged as merely a symptom.
With his existing knowledge on exercise and wellbeing, he embarked on further research and tests on the various foods and toxins found in society.
Through certain life changes and the enormous fountain of information provided by health professionals, his chiropractor, acupuncturist, and massage therapist, Angulo not only managed to stop the elusive hair from falling, he actually regrew missing hair.
"I paid attention to the signs provided by the body – after all, it is the only form of primary information available to each and every one of us. I changed my diet, I changed my habits, it changed my life".
