The nutritionist explained what causes hair problems and what they indicate.

Our body allocates resources to support hair and nails in a healthy, good condition according to the residual principle. When all needs are covered, what's left goes to hair and nails. That is, if there are problems with them (they fall out, grow poorly, break off, split), this indicates that the body does not have enough resources.

The condition of the hair is directly affected by pathologies of the thyroid gland, deficiency of iron and protein in the body , problems with the liver and gall bladder, as well as stress.

“When we talk about hair health, it is important to understand that care is 20% of success, and 80% is the state of the whole body, which our hair shines,” says the expert.

The condition of the hair is greatly influenced by the condition of the scalp and the muscles of the hair follicles. If the muscles are constantly tense (for example, a person feels fear or a desire to control everyone), due to this overtension, the blood supply deteriorates, so the hair receives less nutrients. In particular, because of this, they can grow more slowly.

Due to a violation of carbohydrate metabolism in the body, the sebaceous glands malfunction, if they start to work more actively (this happens with an excess of insulin), the hair quickly becomes greasy, has a stale appearance, no shine.

As you can see, the condition of the hair is an indicator of the health of the whole body. And if you have problems with your hair, this is a signal that you need to look at the problem more deeply and solve it comprehensively.
