For the B12 and D, I really do not want to take a supplement. I don't have a choice for the iron since I don't eat many foods rich in iron but I do eat foods rich in B12 and D. And I'm pretty sure you can get the levels up easily through food (unlike with iron where it takes forever). I used to drink milk every day twice a day (a couple years ago) and my hair was extremely thick at the time. A few months after stopping that, it started to thin and just got worse as the years went on. So I've had cereal and milk the past few days and I'm trying to figure out another time to add in milk, maybe with my oreos.
But please tell me your experience with these vitamins in relation to hair and other symptoms and what you think is doing what or if you think it's a combination. And if anyone has taken ferrous sulfate 325mg, please let me know how it worked. And any other advice/suggestions is welcome! I really need my hair to get thick ASAP cause I have been wanting to go blonde for 2 years and it's really making me sad that I can't do it and increase my confidence. And even once these levels go up, the hair has to grow out thick starting at the roots so it will take a long time. Plus I'd really like to go out and have fun instead of sleeping all the time. So I really need to fix these deficiencies quickly.
Thanks everyone!
