5 unhealthy eating practices causing your hair loss

Excessive sugar intake can disrupt hormone balance, leading to hair thinning and loss due to insulin resistance and inflammation.

Low protein intake deprives hair follicles of essential building blocks, causing weak, brittle hair prone to breakage and shedding.

Inadequate iron intake impairs oxygen transport to hair follicles, contributing to hair loss and stunted growth, known as telogen effluvium.

High sodium consumption may elevate blood pressure, potentially reducing blood flow to the scalp and hindering hair growth.

Insufficient water intake can dehydrate hair strands, making them more prone to breakage and contributing to dry, brittle hair and eventual loss.
