Hair loss treatment: Two foods that could prevent hair loss and even boost hair growth

Hair loss, known medically as alopecia, is fairly common.

It’s estimated, for instance, that around 40 percent of women aged 70 years or over experience female-pattern baldness.

The NHS website advises: “Do not be taken in by claims for wonder products.”

Hair loss is not usually anything to be worried about, but occasionally it can be a sign of a medical condition.
