โจWorried about hair changes while on Semaglutide or Tirzepatide?
Itโs common to notice some hair shedding with these medications โ but often, itโs not the medicine itself. Instead, itโs related to rapid weight loss and lower intake of key nutrients.
๐ก Hereโs what to focus on for healthy hair:
๐ฅฉ Protein โ Hair is made of protein (keratin). Not eating enough can make hair brittle and thin. Aim for a protein source at every meal.
๐ณ Good options: lean meats, fish, eggs, Greek yogurt, beans, tofu, or even protein shakes.
๐ Supplementing with collagen or amino acids (building blocks to proteins).
๐ฟ Vitamins & Minerals โ Your hair follicles need certain nutrients to stay strong:
Biotin & B vitamins
Vitamin D
Vitamin C (helps absorb iron)
Iron & Zinc
