Four reasons for experiencing hair loss: Explained by a Nutritionist

Nutritionist Kinita Kadakia Patel recently shared some of the commons causes of hair loss in an Instagram video.

Common causes for hair loss

*Having low calorie or low protein diet
*Crash dieting
*Lost too much weight too soon
*Deficiency in zinc, vitamin B12 and iron

The nutritionist also suggested some simple ways to prevent hair loss. Take a look:

*Get your protein corrected: Protein is very important for hair. It is made of keratin, which requires biotin, an important amino acid.
*Get tested for zinc, folic, and vitamin deficiency
*If you continue to experience hair loss post a nutrition programme, consult your nutritionist, Kinita advised.
