Switching to a purely vegan diet is nothing short of an achievement. It takes hard work, a lot of willpower and extensive knowledge and research. A vegan diet eliminates all animal products, including dairy and eggs, and relies on plant foods for nutrition. While it is possible to get all your needed nutrients by following a plant-based diet, it requires a lot of careful planning and management. Sometimes a lack of proper nutrition and nutrition knowledge can lead to excessive vegan hair loss. On average, a person loses 100 to 200 hairs per day. If you notice more strands falling out and brittle ends developing, see a doctor to check for underlying health conditions. If your doctor gives you a clean bill of health, it's time to take a close look at your diet to make sure you're getting enough calories, minerals, vitamins and protein to keep your hair as healthy as possible.

Am I losing hair because of my vegan diet? My hair loss solutions #aesthetician #hairloss #vegan
Hair loss in women is not uncommon. In one study, 34% of women from Japan, the US and Britain reported increased hair loss compared to five years earlier. The reasons for hair loss vary from person to person. So it is important to see a doctor who can diagnose the specific problem.
In some cases, hair loss may be diet-related. Hair loss can sometimes occur with rapid weight loss due to switching to a vegan diet. One study found that hair grew back within months of weight loss. In other cases, there are less obvious nutritional reasons for hair loss.
A vegan diet should include a wide variety of protein-rich foods to get enough for hair cell renewal and nourishment. Protein provides the energy needed for healthy tissue growth, not only for your hair, but also for vital tissues such as your heart, lungs and liver. Your body will always prioritize your vital organs over others, which means that if your diet is deficient in protein, your hair will suffer first.
