Combined Diet and Supplementation Therapy Resolves Alopecia Areata in a Pediatric Patient: A Case Study

In a case study from November 2020, an eight-year-old male diagnosed with alopecia areata (AA), an autoimmune condition causing hair loss, was treated with a combined dietary and supplementation approach. The regimen focused on unrefined foods high in vitamins A and D, zinc, and included additional supplements such as a multi-nutrient, zinc sulfate, and fish oil with vitamin D. The treatment led to complete remission of AA within five months, suggesting a potential link between diet, specific micronutrients, and the management of AA.
