Vitamin deficiency and hair loss

Consume more proteins, such as eggs, meat, legumes... Include fruits and vegetables in each meal, they are rich in minerals and nutrients and will help you fight against deficiencies food!
Consume more fatty acids (95% of the population is deficient) such as oily fish, avocados, almonds, add vegetable oils to your dishes and supplement with Omega-3 (for example, Absolute Omega-3 from D-LAB NUTRICOSMETICS ).
Vitamin D deficiency
vitamin D plays a determining role in hair loss. A vitamin D deficiency therefore leads to hair loss and dull hair. When vitamin D is lacking, hair follicles weaken and hair no longer grows back.
Furthermore, a study showed that a lack of vitamin D would also lead to an increase in the amount of sebum on the scalp. A real vicious circle, because the oilier our hair is, the more we wash it, which results in drying and straightening afterwards and therefore hair which weakens and ends up falling out.
Iron deficiency
iron deficiency is one of the most common deficiencies! Pregnant women, the elderly, vegans and vegetarians are at increased risk of iron deficiency.
One of the consequences of this deficiency is hair loss. Iron plays an essential role in the formation of blood and hair has a high need for blood, if it does not receive enough it begins to fall out.
Zinc deficiency
Zinc acts on the hair, it strengthens the synthesis of keratin and collagen, making the hair silkier and preventing it from thinning. A zinc deficiency can manifest itself through alopecia and hair aging.
Vitamin B deficiency
B vitamins are essential for strengthening hair and helping to maintain healthy hair. Indeed, they stimulate the production ofkeratin, a protein that forms hair and nails.
Hair loss, superfoods and vitamin for hair
A healthy and varied diet is essential to maintain good hair health. Here are some ingredients considered superfoods to prevent hair loss.

Iron is essential for the production of red blood cells, which carry oxygen to hair follicles. Vitamin C helps stimulate the production of collagen, which is important for hair growth, while beta-carotene is converted to vitamin A in the body, which is crucial for hair growth and health.
