Vitamins To Support Hair Growth

Natural vitamins that support hair growth are vitamin A, B, C, D, E. These can be obtained if you are eating a diet that is nutrient dense with lots of good vegetable and fruits.

Personally I think none of us have that good of a diet so it is usually best to take a quality multiple vitamin to cover what you are not getting in diet. You can usually see a difference when adding supplements to your health plan. Even if we eat really good food there is the issue of how well the digestive system works and how much of each of the nutrients you adsorb.

Vitamin A Foods For Your Diet

Some of the foods that are high in vitamin A are sweet potatoes, pumpkin, spinach, kale and any vegetable or fruit that is high in beta-carotene(converts to vitamin A). Cod liver oil is very high in vitamin A as well. Dairy products also contain good amounts of vitamin A.

Food To Add For More Vitamin B Complex

B Vitamins helps to build red blood cells that carry nutrients to the scalp and hair follicles. They also provide the nutrition to support the nervous system. Stress along can be a cause of hair loss or thinning hair. Hormones also are a contributing factor especially after menopause. Food that provide B vitamins are whole grains, dark green leafy green, sea foods and nuts. Protein is a must for hair, skin and nails and if you are not eating meats you need to work hard to get more foods with B12 in your diet

Biotin is part of the B Complex and is also known as Vitamin H. Hair, skin and nails are very dependent on the nutrients that biotin provides. It is part of the building block of protein that is required for health hair. Some of the foods highest in biotin are egg yolk, organ meats, nuts, beans, grains and mushrooms. Having great hair, nails and skin are a sure sign of fantastic health.

Nutrient Rich Foods With Vitamin C

Fresh fruits are all nutrient rich in vitamin C. Citrus fruits are extremely high and because of their antioxidant properties they provide they are very important. Vitamin C is important to create collagen that is useful in the growth of hair, nails and skin. Other than citrus fruit, cantaloupe, kiwi, mango, pineapple, mango, berries and watermelon also provide vitamin C.

Vitamin D For Healthier Hair

Nutrient rich food that are high in vitamin D are beef liver, cheese, egg yolks, tofu, fatty fish and enriched foods. It is best to ask your Dr. to test you for vitamin D deficiency as it is very common and especially if you live in a northern area. It is a must to obtaining a health immune system and more than ever before this is drastically important.

Minerals That Support Hair Growth

Natural iron, selenium, iodine, and zinc are very important for hair growth. Hair loss can also be a sign that thyroid function is not adequate. You can ask your Dr. to check to see if this is an underlying problem. Stress also is a major cause of hair loss.

Iron helps the blood cells carry oxygen and nutrients to the follicles for new hair growth. Selenium supports thyroid and also has an effect on new hair growth. Do not over take selenium as it can cause hair to be brittle and break off and can cause loss of hair in patches because of thyroid function. Iodine is also a great support for the thyroid.

Zinc Rich Foods

Pumpkin seed are a great source of zinc and they can be easily add into your diet. If you don’t want to eat them by the handful you can always grind them and add them to any dish. They can be put on salads either ground or whole. Add them into granola mix, cookies, pancakes or even meat dishes. Chicken, lamb and beef are also excellent sources of zinc. Zinc helps our immune system also, you can see it is a vital mineral to keep in our diet. Other foods that also contain zinc are spinach, mushroom, yogurt, garbanzo beans and cashews.

Lack of Protein or Adsorption May Caused Hair Problems

Hair cuticles absorb keratin which is a fibrous structural protein that makes your hair glossy and thicker. Foods high in protein will help to insure that they are feeding the scalp and promoting new growth. Eggs are probably the best protein to nourish hair and restore the healthy shine as beside protein they have enzymes and oil.

Nuts and seeds are also good forms of omega 3 fatty acids that supply essential fats for healthy hair. Avocado are also very healthy as it contains vitamin E and also healthy fats. It also helps to alkalize the body and keep proper PH balance. As we age we have less and less enzymes to digest and utilize our foods so it may be that a food digestive aid may help.
