Vitamins to stop hairloss

Morning everyone

I’ve just read this suggested article...

healdove.com/disease-illnes...

If I’ve understood it correctly, I should be taking a good multivitamin to ensure my vitamin levels are “up”

Can anyone suggest a good multi vitamin please ?

There are so many out there to choose from !

There really are no good multivitamins. They tend to contain not enough of anything to help, and usually the cheapest and least absorbable forms of ingredients.

They often contain Iodine and/or calcium both of which should be tested before supplementing.

They often contain iron which affects absorption of everything else.

You should test and supplement where levels are low.

Like seaside Susie said, test to see what the situation is.

For me the two main points when hair is concerned, is proper thyroid hormone replacement therapy, and enough iron (check your ferritin level).

I am not a big believer in special hair vitamins. Great if they work for someone.

110.00. 13.00. - 150.00
