Hair loss is a common side-effect of low-carb diets.
A study funded by Dr. Atkins himself found that about 10% suffered from hair loss.
The precise cause is unknown at the time of writing: it may be due to basic malnutrition, or, as one of our doctors notes, "I've seen this over and over again in my practice.
Basically, this diet can cause your cortisol levels to go sky high, which will lead to hair loss. Ideally, you should change your diet to help solve this problem."
