Pump iron (in your diet) Iron is a mineral that's important for your hair growth game and Engelman says women are more susceptible to a deficiency. "Nutrient deficiencies can have an impact on overall health, but particularly on hair loss. Iron plays a key role in hair growth and we know women, in particular, can have iron deficiency or anemia due to our monthly blood loss. Since we're more at risk, we have to look for dietary sources of iron, which can be either green leafy vegetables or red meat when it comes to food or supplements like ferrous gluconate."
