Excessive daily hair shedding can sometimes point to low iron, vitamin D, or protein levels. Several studies link iron deficiency with diffuse hair loss, particularly in menstruating women. Low vitamin D levels have also been associated with alopecia and poor hair regrowth in both men and women.
While hair loss is multifactorial, involving stress, hormones, and illness, addressing nutrient gaps can improve hair density and regrowth.

What can help:
Boost iron with red meat, spinach, lentils, and beetroot.
Increase vitamin D intake via sunlight, fortified milk, or supplements if deficient.
Eat high-quality protein: eggs, fish, legumes, and bone broth for amino acids.
Manage stress with regular sleep, yoga, or meditation to balance hair growth hormones.
