Hair loss - Zinc & Selenium advice (please!)

[I will get there one day!]

Hi - I suffered with hairloss when I did lighterlife and was recommended Biotin tablets which you can get from H&B - they were not expensive at all and seemed to really help.

My hair began to fall out somewhat at about 3.5 - 4 months out. That's a pretty common time.

My surgeon's nutrit. suggested trying Biotin. She felt that sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. The reason being is while your body is losing large amts. of weight it's using all the protein it can to sustain itself for impt. bodily functions. Unfortunately, the body considers hair unimportant & gives the hair the least amt. of protein.

You might consider trying the Biotin. Best of luck.
