If you’re noticing more hair in the shower drain, (after showering)
or if it’s just thinning, you may want to try and fix it with certain
foods.

Foods?
That’s right, due to stress or the Pandemic, (Co-Vid-19),
you may be eating foods that aren’t complementary to
your hair, you know, junk food, fried foods, processed foods
and sweet foods.

So, if you want to reclaim your crowning glory (head of hair
or beautiful tresses,) just look below for the foods that’ll
help you achieve that goal.

The Foods:
a) Legumes-
If your hair is brittle and prone to breaking,
perhaps adding more lentils, chickpeas or other
legumes to your daily menus might help.
Legumes are packed with manganese and molybdenum,
2 nutrients that make hair strands thick and strong.

b) Seeds Please-
If you’re a fan of seeds and are experiencing hair loss,
add some sesame seeds to your daily menus.
Loaded with zinc and copper, two nutrients that
work together to increase hair growth by as much as 20%.
Add sesame seeds to stir-fries, baked goods,
hot cereals (millet) and smoothies.

c) Seafood-
Fatty fish like shrimp, lobster, cod, salmon, sardines
and trout can give new life to limp and dull hair.
Fish is loaded with omega-3 fatty acids, and these
acids increase the flow of nutrient-rich blood to the
scalp tissues and hair follicles.
Try and eat 3 to 4 oz. of fish two to three times a week.
Not a fan of fish? Walnuts also contain omega-3 fatty acids.
Or eat other high protein foods like beef, pork and poultry.

d) Coconut Oil-
If you go to Thailand, the Philippines or Sri Lanka,
you may notice the thick, luxurious locks of both men
and women, and one of their secrets is oil, coconut oil to
be exact. In addition to eating it, they also massage it into
their damp scalps, wait 30 mins. and then wash it out.
This massage secret makes hair strands stronger and
more break-resistant in as little as 4 weeks.

e) Ask Your Doctor-
About any meds he (or she may have prescribed) as these
meds may be causing the hair thinning.
According to researchers, many of today’s medications (like
blood thinners, antidepressants and blood pressure)
can really do some serious damage to your once lovely locks.
Ask your doctor about switching to a different med and see it
that makes a difference.

f) Vitamins-
Look into taking Vitamin B complex and vitamin C.
Both vitamins energize hair follicles, prompting them
to produce stronger, smoother, break-resistant strands.
Important tip: make sure to talk to your healthcare provider
before adding any type of supplement to your daily regimen.

g) A Recipe For Success-
