EAT CLEAN!

As with any ailment, a balanced diet ensures your health and provides your body with the proper nutrients. 

Here are some science-backed facts explaining how a nutritious diet can contribute to healthy hair:

• Adequate Nutrient Supply: Hair follicles require a range of essential nutrients to support their growth and maintenance. Consuming a balanced diet ensures a good supply of these nutrients. For example:
• Protein: Hair is primarily made of a protein called Keratin. Consuming sufficient protein from lean meats, poultry, fish, eggs, legumes, and nuts provides the building blocks for hair growth.
• Vitamins and Minerals: Various vitamins and minerals, such as vitamins A, E, biotin, zinc, and iron, are essential for healthy hair growth. These nutrients can be found in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, nuts, and seeds.
• Antioxidant Protection: Antioxidants in many fruits and vegetables help protect hair follicles from damage caused by harmful molecules called free radicals. Free radicals can contribute to hair loss and premature greying. Consuming antioxidant-rich foods like berries, spinach, kale, and broccoli can provide this protection.
• Omega-3 Fatty Acids: Omega-3 fatty acids, found in fatty fish like salmon, sardines, and mackerel, as well as walnuts and flaxseeds, have anti-inflammatory properties. Inflammation can disrupt hair growth cycles and contribute to hair loss. Including these foods in your diet can help reduce inflammation and promote healthy hair.
• Improved Blood Circulation: A healthy diet can improve overall blood circulation, including blood flow to the scalp. Good blood circulation ensures hair follicles receive adequate oxygen and nutrients for optimal growth. Regularly consuming foods that support cardiovascular health, such as fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins, can improve blood circulation.
• Hydration: Proper hydration is essential for maintaining healthy hair. Water makes up a significant portion of the hair strand, and dehydration can lead to dry and brittle hair. Drinking adequate water throughout the day helps keep your hair hydrated and prevents it from becoming dry and prone to breakage.

It's important to note that a healthy diet alone may not completely prevent, or reverse hair loss caused by certain medical conditions or genetic factors. However, it can contribute to overall hair health and minimize the risk of hair damage and breakage. If you're experiencing significant hair loss or have concerns about your hair, it's recommended to consult with a healthcare professional or dermatologist for a proper evaluation and guidance.
