Nutrition for healthy hair

[sanan]

Protein is necessary for strong healthy hair as hair is made up of keratin which is a protein. So, for non-vegetarians - lean meat, fish egg and

for vegetarians - paneer, yoghurt, dals, peas, beans and nuts.

Eat whole grain cereals instead of cereals like rava or maida.

The B-Complex vitamins are extremely important for hair. It has been seen that these vitamins not only help to maintain the health and shine of hair but also prevent hair fall.
Therefore, your daily diet must contain adequate quantities of fresh fruits and vegetables eaten raw as this ensures the supply of vitamins, minerals and enzymes.
Minerals that are essential for healthy hair are iron, zinc, magnesium, sulphur, potassium, phosphorous and iodine.
A deficiency of iron is the cause of dull and brittle hair and if not corrected, can lead to hair fall. Sulphur and iodine play an important protective role.
