How important is nutrition when it comes to hair health?

Charlotte Lucas was a Pharmacist with the NHS for 25 years, and she became a little disillusioned with the general lack of preventative action in medicine. She has now completed a master's in nutrition.

She believes that many chronic health conditions could be managed and treated in a better way, and our body is an ecosystem.

Charlotte shares that nutrition plays a huge part in relation to health, and having experienced hair loss twice herself, once as a teenager during her GCSE's, and then later during menopause too.

She uses a combination of functional medicine, nutritional medicine and pharmaceutical medicine.

We look at how inflammation can affect hair loss and autoimmune conditions, as she states that 75-80% of the immune system is located in the gut, and our microbiome impacts so many aspects of our health.
