If you’ve been noticing thinning hair, extra shedding in the shower, or even patchy hair loss, your body may be sending you a message about your gut. In this episode of Ask a Nutritionist, dietitian Brandy Buro explores the connection between gut health and hair health, explaining how issues like poor digestion, nutrient malabsorption, leaky gut, and chronic inflammation can all disrupt the hair growth cycle. She shares practical steps to support both your gut and your hair through real food, targeted supplements, and lifestyle strategies, while also discussing when testing or professional support may be needed.
