Title: Unlocking the Secrets to Thicker Locks: Nutrition's Role in Hair and Thyroid Health
Have you ever wondered if there's more to your bad hair days than just unruly strands? Nataliia Sanzo, a distinguished registered dietitian with a personal history of Hashimoto's disease, joins us to unravel how nutrition deeply affects hair health and thyroid conditions. Together, we shed light on Nataliia's own experiences with hair loss, and how tweaking your diet could be the key to unlocking the luscious locks you've longed for.
Amidst our conversation, we uncover the critical role of nutrients like selenium, zinc, and omega-3 fatty acids in maintaining a healthy mane, even when thyroid hormone levels are in check. If you're grappling with hair thinning and can't figure out why, our discussion on the importance of comprehensive testing for a range of factors beyond thyroid hormones might just be the revelation you've been seeking. Nataliia navigates us through the complexities of iron and ferritin levels, illuminating their impact on hair vitality.
As we wrap up the episode, we highlight the importance of structured meal planning and avoiding crash diets to preserve both hair and thyroid health. The perils of rapid weight loss and its potential repercussions on your hair are also showcased through an intriguing case study. If you're on the hunt for bespoke hair care solutions, this podcast episode is an invaluable resource that promises to steer you toward better hair days.
Key Takeaways:
Hashimoto's is not just a thyroid disease, but an immune system disease that can affect many organs and systems in the body, including hair health.

• Comprehensive testing, including assessments of hormones, vitamins, minerals, and gut health, is crucial for identifying the root causes of hair loss in individuals with Hashimoto's.
• Key nutrients for supporting thyroid function and hair growth include selenium, zinc, iron, omega-3 fatty acids, and vitamin D.
• Meal planning and meal delivery services can help busy professionals and mothers ensure they're getting the nutrients they need for optimal thyroid and hair health.
• Crash diets and extreme calorie restriction can shock the body, lead to decreased thyroid hormone production, and contribute to hair loss.
• Supplementing with a B-complex vitamin and probiotics can be beneficial for hair health and growth, in addition to a multivitamin.
• Addressing gut health is essential for optimal nutrient absorption and overall health, including hair health.
