In this podcast, I want to talk about why your ears and nose continue growing as you get older. Unfortunately, it’s inevitable—your ears and nose will grow and grow.

While your bones stop growing in your early 20s, your cartilage doesn’t. Your nose and ears are made up of cartilage, which is why they don’t stop growing. At the same time, the connective tissue that holds the cartilage together decreases. This can lead to drooping and sagging. 

Men also have a problem with something called DHT. DHT is a powerful type of testosterone that is created from testosterone and a certain enzyme. This leads to hair loss. Interestingly, though it stops the growth of hair on your head, it also increases the growth of nose, ear, and eyebrow hair. 

There are certain natural enzyme inhibitors that help prevent DHT called 5 alpha-reductase inhibitors. This happens to be found in pumpkin seeds.
