Hair loss and diet
Hair loss is connected to many different factors. Ranges from stress to a general nutrient deficiency. Nutrients linked to falling hair are iron, vitamin B1, vitamin C, and the amino acid lysine.To optimise hair growth, make sure you are getting adequate protein from fish, lean chicken and some soya products like tofu. Zinc, is an essential mineral for hair growth.
Meat, shellfish, eggs, wholegrains such as oats, nuts and seeds such as pumpkin and sunflower are all rich in zinc. Vitamin B5, also known as pantothenic acid) has also been shown to help stimulate hair growth. Massaging your scalp for 20 minutes everyday lying on a slantboard with the head on the lower end also boosts circulation to the scalp.
