HAIR IS SHEDDING, need protein suggestions ASAP

My hair is starting to shed on the right side and I know it's all because I abandoned drinking Protein. I am currently drinking Premier Nutrition and I HATE IT...Since I don't want my hair to continue to fall out and I know I need to drink this stuff Does anybody have any alternatives that they happen to stomach each and every day. THANKS. DESPERATE AND GOING BALD!!

I had it happen briefly and it came out for all the above reasons. I will add that Iron deficiency/vitamin deficiency contributes to hair loss.

And Protein DOES play a part in hair loss. If you notice people that are protein deificient from eating disorders etc do have porblems with shedding hair.

Anyway I made sure I got in at least 60grams of protein per day and NOT at one time. I drink Body Fortress whey protein. I buy from walmart. I love it. I use strawberry. It blends easily and has smooth taste versus gritty like some. I also take Biotin daily when I take my multivitamin and iron tab. Hair loss subsided after about 2 months. I also went proactive and cut my hair short as you can see from my pic so I wouldnt have a melt down

That happened to me also. They had me start taking a Vitamin called Biotin. You can get it in any store or drugstore in the vitamin section. They also suggested Magnesium along with it if I didn't see any improvement. I have seen the difference and continue to take the Vitamins. Hope this helps.

I use the Premium chocolate protein drinks from Costco and add frozen strawberries and vanilla. Greatly improves the taste.
