Hair
Growth and Nutrition. 8 Healthy Tips to Get Your Hair Growing!
HEALTH
& NUTRITION
Healthy hair starts from within. To ensure
that your hair grows healthy and strong, you definitely need to feed your body
healthy vitamins and nutrients. Here are
some nutritional tips that will encourage healthy hair growth.
1.
Hair
Vitamin Supplementation. It is always better to receive your vitamins
and nutrients from healthy food sources. With the typical diet, many desirable
nutrients may still be missing. If you feel as though your diet may be lacking
in some nutrients, I suggest that you supplement your diet with a high quality
hair vitamin that supports healthy hair growth. By doing this, you will be able
to provide your body with all of the nutrients that it needs for healthy hair
and general health.
Product recommendation- Hydratherma Naturals
Hair Growth Plus Vitamin with Biotin, MSM, Silica, Keratin, Hyalauronic acid,
collagen and many other herbs extracts and vitamins to support healthy hair,
skin and nails.
2.
Give MSM a
try. While taking supplements, be sure that your hair growth
supplement contains MSM. MSM is an organosulfur compound that occurs naturally
in plants. MSM is believed to extend the
growth phase of the hair growth cycle. This can possibly speed up your hair
growth process. If you are allergic to sulfur be sure to consult your health
care professional before taking MSM or any supplement containing it.
3.
Water
Water Water! As I mentioned in a previous tip, water is the ultimate form of
moisture in our bodies so it is extremely important that we drink plenty of it.
At least 8 glasses a day will properly keep you hydrated. Fruit juices and
sodas are not the best options to hydrate the body because they are loaded with
sugar which can cause inflammation. Inflammation can actually impede healthy
hair growth. If you are not a water drinker,
try infusing it with fruit. Adding lemons, strawberries and even cucumbers to
your water will add vitamins and enhance the flavor as well.
4.
Eat a
protein rich diet. Hair consists of keratin which is a protein
made of amino acids. Your body must produce or ingest these amino acids in order
to grow healthy hair. Diets that are extremely low in amino acid proteins will
result in hair that is weak and fragile. High protein sources include eggs,
dairy and meat. You can also get your protein from non-animal sources. See next
tip.
5.
Vegetarianism
and protein intake. If you love eating plant based, you can still
ingest healthy levels of protein. You can incorporate protein shakes or protein
bars into your diet to boost your protein levels. Healthy proteins are also available in many
veggies including broccoli as well as legumes and brown rice. With a little research
and meal planning, ingesting adequate amounts of plant based protein is not
necessarily a difficult job.
6.
A lack of
protein can be problematic when it comes to healthy hair growth. If you
are not getting enough protein in your diet, hair growth will be stunted
because your body will naturally ration the protein and use it for other (more
important) life sustaining metabolic activities. Your body will try to hold on
to the protein and the hair will be the last recipient of the distributed
protein. Hair loss may begin to occur
within two to three months after your protein intake has dropped
significantly.
7.
Vitamins
B7, C and E Rock! Eat a diet high in vitamin B7 (encourages
growth and helps to reduce hair loss), Vitamin C (helps to grow and strengthen
hair) & Vitamin E (encourages sebum production for a healthy scalp). Stock
up on your fruits, veggies, nuts and healthy meats (or other high protein
sources) to get these vitamins naturally.
If you decide to use supplements, just be sure that you are not taking
more than the recommended daily allowance.
8.
Vitamin A
is great for your hair but too much vitamin A may be problematic. When
taking supplements, remember that more doesn’t always mean better. This is
especially true for the fat soluble vitamins A,D,E and K. Fat soluble vitamins
are stored in the body for longer periods of time and can pose a greater risk
for toxicity when consumed in excess. Taking too much Vitamin A may contribute
to hair loss according to the American Academy of Dermatology. Vitamin A is fat
soluble and your body will store any excess that you take in. This can result
in toxicity resulting in hair loss. Make sure that you are not taking more than
the recommended daily allowance. The
Daily Value for vitamin A is 5,000 International Units (IU) per day for adults.
