Skin and Hair Growth Diet

Duration: Initial consult 45-60 min; ongoing reviews · Sports and Performance Nutrition, Ayurvedic Aesthetics

Overview

The Skin and Hair Growth Diet is a targeted nutrition plan for the health of your skin, hair and nails. Hair fall and dull skin are often driven, or worsened, by nutritional gaps – low iron and ferritin, vitamin D, zinc, protein, B-vitamins or essential fats – and by crash dieting. This programme identifies and corrects those gaps and builds an eating pattern that genuinely supports growth and repair.

We are honest about what food can and cannot do: correcting a real deficiency can markedly improve hair shedding and skin quality, but diet alone does not reverse genetic pattern baldness. Where a medical cause is likely, we screen for it and treat accordingly.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the programme work?

It begins with an assessment and, where needed, screening for common culprits such as ferritin, vitamin D, thyroid and protein status. A personalised plan then targets the gaps and supports skin and hair with the right nutrients and food choices.

Who is it for?

People with diffuse hair thinning or increased shedding, dull or problem skin, brittle nails, post-partum hair loss, and those recovering from restrictive dieting.

Can diet regrow my hair?

It can significantly reduce shedding and improve quality where a deficiency or dietary problem exists. It does not reverse genetic pattern hair loss, which needs specific treatment – we will tell you honestly which applies to you.

Do I need supplements?

Only where indicated – the priority is food first, with targeted supplements added when a genuine deficiency is found rather than routinely.

How soon are results seen?

Hair grows slowly, so improvements in shedding and quality typically take a few months of consistent nutrition to show.
