MyBody-X angle on Haarausfall Ernährung

MyBody-X can offer clues about hair loss and nutrition, but not definitive diagnosis or treatment. Genetic tests (e.g., MTHFR, FTO) may indicate tendencies affecting nutrient needs like folate, vitamin D, or iron. However, effect sizes are small and evidence is mostly observational. Biomarker tests (blood, microbiome) can detect deficiencies, but hair loss has many causes (hormones, stress, autoimmune conditions). MyBody-X tests should complement, not replace, medical evaluation. Marketing often overstates predictive power. Evidence: mixed – mechanistic and observational studies, but no clinical guidelines for direct dietary recommendations from genetic tests for hair loss.
