Factors impacting hair health and loss

Overview

Research and expert observations indicate that hair health is heavily influenced by both nutritional intake and external environmental factors.

Dietary elements such as biotin, iron, protein, and various micronutrients like zinc, vitamin D, and vitamin B12 are essential for maintaining hair follicle strength and keratin synthesis. Deficiencies in these areas, or the high consumption of sugar and ultra-processed foods, can lead to hair thinning, loss, and scalp inflammation.

In addition to nutrition, external factors contribute to hair fragility. Dermatologist Donatella Petrocelli notes that changes in texture or color may signal nutrient deficiencies. Furthermore, excessive heat from styling tools, prolonged stress, and weather changes can damage the hair cuticle and weaken the hair fiber.
