How to treat hair loss? What are the causes it? Here's what you need to consider about the right hair loss treatment.
Natural Ways to Strengthen Hair
Though few natural treatments have been well-studied for hair loss, there are a handful that may help you hold onto your mane longer if it's starting to disappear.
Depends on the Cause
You may be seeing more hair in your brush than normal for several reasons. Vitamin deficiencies, thyroid problems, and menopause are all culprits of hair loss.
If a medical condition is causing your hair loss, it may need to be treated. Sometimes medication is needed, but general methods first - such as the following:
Nutrition
Nutrients and minerals from the food to get the best diets.
Protein is important to strengthen hair and promote growth. The recommended daily amount is about two to three 3-ounce servings of meat or a combination of four to five servings of dairy and beans.
Kravich tells patients dealing with hair loss to include nuts and seeds, eggs, and fish in their diets. All are important sources of omega-3 fatty acids, which help lower inflammation and create a healthier scalp.
It's best to avoid a rut; eat a variety of foods every day. Kravich recommends eating six to 10 servings of various vegetables daily, two to four fruits, and an assortment of grains and legumes and lean meat products.
Roberts says there are some nutrients that may be helpful for hair:
Iron
Anemia can cause hair loss. But iron supplements are only recommended if you've tested positive for iron-deficiency anemia, according to the Cleveland Clinic.
Zinc and biotin
These supplements are assumed to help with hair growth because people with metabolic disorders lacking them can have thin or brittle hair and nails, Mirmirani says. She doesn't recommend supplements, but she also doesn't discourage their use.
Saw palmetto is sometimes touted for hair growth, but there isn't enough evidence to back that up, according to the National Institutes of Health.
