[QUOTE="geefull, post: 1894766, member: 305199"] Hi [USER=461597]@PenguinMum[/USER] I have hair loss too, I do LCHF rather than keto and mine seems to be better since I upped the protein I'm eating a bit. I think it was triggered by a combination of (some) calorie restriction which lowered protein and stomach medication (omeprazole) which I had to take for three months (this can affect how some nutrients are absorbed). Plus my metabolism is already damaged from years of yoyo dieting which means my BMR is quite low. As we get older we don't metabolise protein as well and the combination of that and the medication had my already fine hair falling out quickly :( apparently biological shocks can short circuit the normal lifespan of hair. Good news is that it seems to be recovering slowly :) [/QUOTE]
