Foods that Promote Hair Growth
Posted by: admin : Category: Health, Healthy Foods
Coming from a family where baldness is a dominant trait, I am making sure I read up on this!
- Heredity
- Stress
- Inadequate nutrition. This factor can be eliminated by incorporating plenty of foods that promote hair growth into your daily diet.
- High levels of DHT, a hair-loss contributing hormone. Green tea may help correct these problematic hormone imbalances; a low-fat diet may also be beneficial.
What are the top foods that promote hair growth?
- Protein: liver, brewer’s yeast, fish, eggs, beans, cottage cheese, yogurt, tofu.
- Iron: liver, whole grain cereals, dark green leafy vegetables, eggs, dates, raisins.
- B Vitamins: eggs, meat, poultry.
- Essential Fatty Acids: walnuts, canola oil, fish, soy.
- Vitamin E: avocados, nuts, seeds, olive oil.
- Sulfur: meats, fish, nuts, legumes, vegetables (especially onions).
Of course there is an available hair loss treatment for men but what you can prevent is better than treating them!
