Can a zinc deficiency directly cause hair thinning or increased shedding? Studies link low serum zinc to diffuse shedding and alopecia areata, and severe deficiency states cause hair loss that reverses when zinc is replaced. The evidence is mostly observational, the one supplementation study was small and uncontrolled, and zinc is not a treatment for pattern hair loss.
Is it possible to take too much zinc when using hair supplements, and what are the risks? Excessive zinc intake can lead to health issues like nausea, headaches, and immune dysfunction.
