When hair thins or falls out more than normal, it’s often a signal that you’re low on some key nutrients. Nutrients like vitamins D, B12 and A, and iron, keep your hair looking full and healthy. If you don’t get enough, your locks could suffer as a result.
- Vitamin deficiencies often cause hair loss, with nutrients like vitamins D, B12, A and iron playing key roles in maintaining healthy hair growth cycles
- Vitamin D supports hair follicle development, while B vitamins help produce keratin — the protein that forms hair structure
- Iron carries oxygen to hair follicles; deficiency causes poor growth, but too much is also harmful, with ideal serum ferritin levels being 20 to 40 ng/mL
- Vitamin A regulates scalp health through sebum production; both deficiency and excess cause hair problems like dryness or thinning
- A nutrient-rich whole foods diet is the best approach to addressing vitamin-related hair loss, with supplement used only when necessary after proper testing
