is it obvious to have hair loss while on a diet?


diet supplement
tinklingbangle asked:


If it is, what can I do to avoid it? I’ve been on a diet (self made, but I do eat loads of veggies and fruits to get all vitamins) for the past 4 months or so.

recently (since a month may be) I’ve been having a severe hair loss. I don’t have a doctor to consult here, what should I do?

Do you think having a multivitamin and biotin supplement help me?

also, when I’ll start eating more, will my hair grow back?

please please give all your suggestions, advice.

    you need some protein big time….TAKE the vitamins for goodness sake but get some protein in you!!! it doesnt need to be animal. Jill S

    The multivitamin may help. It sounds like you’re not getting all the nutrients you need and your malnutrition is causing you to lose hair. I think it’s a good idea to consult a nutritionist to make sure you have all the essential foods in your diet, especially protein. Also, there are some vitamins that are very difficult to get just from vegetables. drshorty

    Hair needs iron, calcium and vitamins. Eat a balanced diet and all will be well Ya-sai

    You are not getting the right proteins in your body. Are you eating a balanced diet? Try drinking and eating soy products, it gives good quality protein. Personally I would recommend you see a dietitian. They can help you create a more balanced diet to prevent hair loss. foxygoldcleo

    yes, i have a friend who went on a diet and before the diet she didn’t have much hair to start off with and after and during the diet, she lost so much hair she had like… none. and to top that off, she bleached her hair to blonde which causes a lot of hair loss. then she died it back to her natural color which was like a brown and then bleached it a second time like a week later then like a few weeks later she dies back again. NOT SMART!! she is nearly bald. .i.love.you.

    Depends on how old u r, also ur genetic makeup. I presume u r male @ therefore prone 2 hair loss, @ I dont know ur age.I suggest u eat more as multivitamins are only a panacea, also try rubbing parrafin or lavender oil into your scalp daily, it does work! sinbaad
