Anaemia and Hair Loss: Women

15 Jul 2008, by haircentre in FEMALE HAIR LOSS

Anaemia is a condition characterised by a reduction in the number of red blood cells or haemoglobin (iron rich element of red blood cells) in the blood. Symptoms of anaemia include general weakness, fatigue, brittle nails, paleness, loss of appetite and long term diffuse hair loss. Iron deficiency is the most common cause of anaemia and it is often linked to blood loss e.g. excessive menstrual bleeding, peptic ulcers, haemorrhoids etc.

DIET AND LIFESTYLE
Include plenty of green leafy vegetables, blackstrap molasses, lean meats, dried fruits. Avoid foods which inhibit iron absorption including, coffee, tea, wheat bran and egg yoke.

USEFUL SUPPLEMENTS
Iron – 24mg daily- with L-Lysine and vitamin C  for maximum absorption.
