60% of women and 80% of men experience some form of hair loss in their lives. Women often feel alone and unsure of where to turn for help, as female hair loss and hair thinning has remained a greatly stigmatised ‘taboo’ subject.

Major causes

There are a significant amount of internal and external factors that can affect the health of your hair, ultimately leading to hair loss via a direct influence on the overall hair growth cycle.

Five of the major causes of hair loss include stress, hormones, diet, personal health and genetics.

What can you do about it?

Diet is hugely important as your hair requires a regular supply of protein, glucose, vitamins and minerals for optimal health and growth. In relation to vitamins and minerals specifically, it is important to maintain a balanced intake of iron, zinc, silica, magnesium, omega fatty acids and B-complex vitamins, preferably through the normal diet.

Maintaining proper nutrition through a balanced diet is the preferred way to help maintain a healthy body and healthy hair. Three key foods to achieve this are salmon, eggs and lentils because they naturally provide a combination of nutrients essential for normal, healthy hair growth.
