Today, we have another episode in the YouTube series where I answer listeners’ questions from the Everyday Wellness Podcast and my private free Facebook group, The Midlife Pause/Cynthia Thurlow.

We’re continuing the conversation around hair loss today. In the last episode, we covered some common causes of hair loss. In this episode, we discuss how nutrition can either positively or negatively affect it. Some familiar themes come up again, but they’re hard to avoid because in midlife, nutrition is not optional. It’s essential!

IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN:

Why a protein-centric diet is vital in middle age
How over-fasting can exacerbate hair loss
Why iron is essential for hair growth
Foods that are beneficial for their polyphenols and antioxidants
Why metabolic health is critical for hair follicle protection
How stress and disrupted sleep affect hair loss
The value of weight training and maintaining muscle mass
The role of iodine, selenium, and red blood cell magnesium in hair growth and the benefits of an anti-inflammatory diet
