IRON DEFICIENCY AND HAIR LOSS:
Healthy hair growth depends on an adequate diet.
Iron deficiency is a common cause that leads to loss of hair in women. A three-year study of women suffering from loss of hair in the late 1990’s had identified iron deficiency as the cause of hair loss in 72% of pre-menopausal women.
This loss of iron could lead to anemia. But don’t wait for your doctor to diagnose you with having anemia (defined as too little iron in the blood). Try to get your recommended daily iron intake. Some women with iron deficiency have experienced many strands and sometimes handfuls of hair going down the drain when washing their hair and they were not pregnant (note: pregnancy can sometimes cause premature loss of hair).
So, your best bet is to avoid these nightmarish experiences and increase your iron intake on a daily basis. Make sure your diet contains enough meat, fish, eggs, cereals, peas and beans. Try eating more dried fruits, legumes and dark leafy greens, which are very high in iron content. You may also consider a vitamin supplement, but before you do, you should consult with your physician. If you are taking any medications you should also consult with your doctor first on the best vitamin supplement for you. Fruits and vegetables are also needed to provide vitamin C, which enables the body to absorb iron.
However, if you have experienced hair loss and are currently taking medications you should consult with your doctor to see if the hair loss may be caused by your current medication.
Finally, it is known that those with the most healthy hair and skin get enough omega-3 fatty acids in their diet daily. Omega-3 fatty acids include salmon, herring, sardines, or mackerel three times per week.
Take care of your skin, hair and health from the inside out. You’ll be happy with the results.
