What supplements can help with hair loss on GLP-1 medications?

Supplements like vitamin D, B12, folate, iron, zinc, and biotin can help address nutrient deficiencies linked to hair loss during rapid weight loss from GLP-1 medications. Specialised hair formulas such as Nutrafol, Viviscal, and Wellbel may support hair regrowth by targeting these deficiencies and other factors like stress or inflammation. Always check with a healthcare provider before starting supplements, as they are not regulated like medicines and individual needs vary.

Key points:

• Vitamin D, iron, and zinc address common deficiencies from reduced food intake on GLP-1s.
• B12 and folate support hair health when calorie restriction limits nutrient absorption.
• Hair growth supplements like Nutrafol and Viviscal target multiple triggers including inflammation.
• Protein supplements help counter hair loss tied to rapid weight loss.
