Pure Joy Wellness Approved - Nutrafol Hair Supplement

Let’s face it: The symptoms of menopause are not cute. In fact, they can be downright unpleasant, and even unbearable for some women. We’re talking menopausal belly fat, low libido, constantly having to pee, and more. I’ve talked before about hormonal facial hair, a common side effect of menopause, before on the blog, but I haven’t really talked about hair loss… which is what I’m talking about today. (And yes, I found a fix!)

As most of you know, menopause causes a serious hormone shift in women. Our estrogen and progesterone levels fall, which amplifies the effects of androgens in our bodies (male hormones, like testosterone). As a result, our hair can become thinner/finer, fall out more easily, and grow more slowly, because our hair follicles shrink. There are other factors at play that can cause hair loss too, like chronic stress, illness, and nutrient deficiencies, but most often, hair loss is linked to hormones. 

So, what can you do? Thankfully, a few things. You can… 

All of these actions are within your control, and I’ve provided links to my best blog posts for each. But the last point—getting more nutrients—brings me to this month’s Pure Joy Wellness Approved product: The Nutrafol Women’s Balance Hair Growth Supplement!

 
 

Nutrafol Women’s Balance Hair Growth Supplement

The Nutrafol Women’s Balance Hair Growth supplement has become a staple in my daily routine. It’s dermatologist-approved, and formulated for women dealing with hair loss related to perimenopause, menopause, and post-menopause. It’s clinically proven to thicken hair and provide more scalp coverage, and as you’ll see below, it’s jam-packed with nutrients. 

Why I Love Nutrafol

It’s an all-in-one supplement. 

I’m all about a one-stop shop when it comes to supplements—I would prefer to take one super well-formulated supplement than a bunch of individual pills. Nutrafol contains numerous vitamins, including Vitamin A, C, D, biotin, iodine, zinc, and selenium, as well as adaptogens that help with menopausal symptoms, like ashwagandha and maca root powder. It also contains a bunch of amino acids that the body needs to function, like L-lysine, L-methionine, and L-Cysteine, as well as marine collagen, so it’s pescatarian friendly. (Note: Gelatinized maca is on the ingredient list, but that doesn’t mean it contains gelatin!) 

As you can see, Nutrafol is packed with essential vitamins, minerals, amino acids, adaptogens, and other active ingredients. All of these ingredients come together to produce healthier, fuller hair, improve your sleep, reduce stress, and mitigate hot flashes. Yep, it doesn’t just address hair loss! This isn’t just your run-of-the-mill vitamin C pill—in this case, you get what you pay for, and you get A LOT. 

My hair is thicker and stronger, and shedding less.

In my personal experience, Nutrafol has been a game changer for my hair health. I started taking it this year, and I can say without a doubt that it has made my hair fuller, thicker, and stronger than it’s ever been! Not to mention, I’m definitely shedding less. (I still have a normal amount of shedding, but as for excess, hormone-related shedding? Gone!) I went through a period of time when I was losing more hair than usual, experiencing more breakage than usual, and my hair wasn’t growing back as quickly or fully. Thankfully, after just three months of taking Nutrafol daily, I saw a noticeable improvement in my hair, and that improvement has only gotten better with time.

It’s the real deal.  

A lot of hair supplements—and frankly supplements in general—are a lot of bark and no bite. In other words, they don’t work! They’re just a bunch of ingredients thrown together, with a really great marketing team. But I’ve done my research and taken Nutrafol consistently for months and months…and trust me, it’s the real deal. The Women’s Balance supplement is formulated specifically for women before, during, and after menopause, and it utilizes natural ingredients to address the root causes of hair loss and thinning (like hormones, aging, and menopause). I’m a huge proponent of treating the root cause, not just putting a bandaid on the problem, so Nutrafol appeals to me much more than other hair loss products on the market. 

Obviously, every person’s body is different, and we’re all going to respond to different supplements and vitamins differently, but if you feel like you’ve tried everything and haven’t had any luck, I whole-heartedly recommend Nutrafol!

You can find the Nutrafol Women’s Balance supplement on Amazon or on the company’s website. As I mentioned earlier, this supplement does take time to work—any product promising you an overnight miracle is almost certainly B.S.! If you’re struggling with hair loss, give Nutrafol a try; the results have been well worth it for me! 

If you haven’t already, I hope you’ll join the Pure Joy Squad, a private Facebook group where you’ll have access to myself, my #PJWExperts, and a supportive community of women over 50 every single day.
