September 2026 in “Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research)” In this paper, the authors propose that a historical decline in dietary tin intake may contribute to cardiovascular issues and accelerate pattern hair loss by causing copper and zinc depletion, which impairs heart function and scalp circulation.
September 2026 in “Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research)” In this paper, the authors propose that a major reduction in dietary tin over the past century could be linked to increased cardiovascular issues and androgenetic alopecia, hypothesizing that tin deficiency disrupts heart function and scalp circulation by depleting copper and zinc.
