I have listed 9 basic foods that will help deliver the natural vitamins and minerals needed to increase blood flow to the scalp and give the hair follicle everything it needs to start growing healthier hair. Of course everybody is different because we have different genetics and not every hair loss product can work for everyone but most of the hair loss products (mainly vitamins) out there are comprised of the ingrediance found in these natural food sources.
1. Fish
Fish is a good source of Vitamin A, Vitamin B-6, Protein and essential fatty acids. Fatty acids play a major role in maintaining healthy nails, hair and skin.
2. Roast beef
Roast beef is a good source of Vitamin B-6 and Zinc. It's also a good source of protein of course. Vegans might consider taking Soy beans instead for protein and chickpeas for vitamin B6 and Zinc.
3. Oranges or Citrus fruits
Oranges (or orange juice) are a good source of Vitamin C. Vitamin C helps make meat and soy sources of Iron more absorbable. Vitamin C is a big part of the development of collagen, which is necessary for hair growth.
4. Almonds
Almonds are good sources of protein; Iron and Vitamin E. Almonds help lower cholesterol. Note: Some cholesterol lowering drugs actually cause hair loss.
5. Whole wheat
Whole wheat is a good source of Silica and Iron. Silica is very important because it helps with the absorption of many other vitamins and minerals. Lack of Silica could be one of the main causes of hair loss.
6. Cow's milk
Cow's milk has absorbable Iodine. It's impossible to overdose on Iodine from food sources unlike Iodized salt.
7. Oats
Oats are a good source of easily absorbable Iron as well. It's also a good source of Potassium, phosphorus and magnesium.
8. Soy beans
Soy is another great source of protein. It also contains a substantial amount of Iron and Vitamin E. Iron is an important part of hemoglobin production. Hemoglobin is responsible for getting oxygen to the tissues of the body. Without it your hair won't grow.
Vitamin E also helps with the absorption of oxygen and increasing blood circulation to the scalp.
9. Chickpeas
Eating chickpeas basically kills two birds with one stone. You can get both zinc and the vitamin B-6 you need for healthy hair. Zinc has an important part in building hair protein.
Zinc also works together with Vitamin A. Missing one of those two causes you to have dandruff that could contribute to hair loss. If you eat roast beef instead you get all of the same benefits and protein as well.
