Who doesn’t want beautiful, healthy hair? Of course we all do!

I personally believe, and of course it’s true, that the secret to beautiful hair is not expensive hair product or regular visits to the salon. Still, we try different hair care products to achieve those shiny hair goals, we spend a lot of money (which costs a lot to earn!) to get the healthy mane you’ve always dreamed of. But, have you ever thought that expensive hair care products alone cannot help you live your dream.

Yes, let’s do an analysis right now. Your hair needs nourishment from the roots. Your hair also needs nourishment. If the basic, but mandatory nutrients are missing from your diet, no matter how hard you try and visit salons, nothing can help you achieve those beautiful hair goals.

Let’s go to the Biology of your hair to understand what they really need.

The building block of each of those strands of hair is PROTEIN. To put it in simple words, I will say that your hair is made up of protein. Protein-rich foods will definitely help your hair stay healthy. But, in addition to protein, hair also needs other very important nutrients. For example, iron zinc, omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin B, vitamin C and biotin are necessary for the healthy growth of your hair.

I have mentioned some foods below that are necessary to be present in your diet; otherwise get ready to face all those hair related problems and no expensive brand will be able to help you.

PROTEIN-RICH FOODS: Eggs are one of the best natural sources of protein. Hair is made up of proteins. So include them in your daily diet to achieve those healthy hair goals. Ladies, add at least 23 grams of protein to your daily diet.

Other high-protein foods include nuts, soybeans, dairy products such as milk, curds, cheese, oilseeds, tofu, beans, and legumes.

Vitamin C:

Well yes, a dose of vitamin C definitely helps with lustrous hair. Vitamin C not only helps absorb iron, but also helps in hair growth, hair pigmentation, and promotes hair tissue growth. Ultimately resulting in shiny hair.

Sources of vitamin C include oranges, Brussels sprouts, kale, red bell peppers, strawberries, lemon, guava, broccoli, grapefruit, and many more.

OMEGA-3 FATTY ACIDS:

If you need thick, nourished hair, include foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids in your diet. Nuts and seeds are generally a great source of omega-3 fatty acids.

You can also include walnuts, flaxseeds, walnuts, spinach, kale, almonds.
