Understanding Hair Thinning Due to Stress & Nutritional Deficiencies

  • Hair thinning can be caused by stress and nutritional deficiencies, leading to weaker, brittle, and excessive hair shedding.
  • Chronic stress disrupts the hair growth cycle, pushing more follicles into the shedding phase (telogen effluvium).
  • Poor nutrition deprives hair follicles of essential nutrients, affecting growth, strength, and density.
  • The good news? Reversing stress and correcting deficiencies can restore healthy hair growth!
