10 FOODS FOR LONGER, HEALTHIER HAIR

Bye-Bye chemicals, Hello!! healthy diets. Do you know you could eat your way to a longer, stronger healthier hair?? Luckily for you i have got them figured out.  Enjoy and thank me later.

1. EGGS
Eggs are an extremely good source of omega-3s (essential fatty acids) and they also contain biotin (vitamin of the B complex found in egg yolk, liver and yeast). But the egg white does not make the hair long and beautiful, it's the yolk. Eating too many egg whites can block the absorption of Biotin in the body thereby causing reduction of this micronutrient.




2. SWEET POTATOES
Sweet potatoes contain lots of  beta carotene, the antecedent for vitamin A that promotes a healthy scalp and boost hair growth. It is better to eat foods loaded with beta carotene than supplimenting with high doses of Vitamin A from retinol, since it can be very harmful at high levels.



3. AVOCADOS
Avocados are an age-old beauty secret, due to their high concentration of effective fatty acids. When applied to the hair and scalp, they have the ability to stimulate collagen and elastin production. Apply avocados to your hair and scalp for ten minutes before washing off.



4. SPINACH
Spinach and other dark leafy greens, like kale, broccoli, contain vitamin A and C which help your body produce the oils necessary to keep your hair growing healthy and strong.



5. CINNAMON
Cinnamon is a great anti-inflammatory, it helps to balance your blood flow which will make your hair grow faster plus it tastes really good.



6. GREEK YOGHURT
Greek yoghurt is rich in probiotics and has a lot more protein than regular yoghurt. Its good for your gut and your hair. Try substituting Greek yoghurt for regular yoghurt.



7. COCONUTS
Coconuts and coconuts oil are exceedingly nourishing for the inside of your body, skin and for your hair. Coconuts are full of healthy fats, minerals and vitamins that strengthen your hair and add shine. 



8. DARK CHOCOLATE
Raw dark chocolate is full of copper, zinc and iron. These minerals are vital for shiny hair, plus the stimulating power of chocolate increases blood flow and hair growth. Go raw if you want to avoid the the added sugar found in most chocolate bars that leads to dry hair.



9. ALMONDS
Almonds are full of healthy fats, magnesium and vitamin D that help guard against hair loss. One cup contains nearly one-third of your daily requirement. You can see results in a month or two of including them to your diet.



10. SALMON
This fish is loaded with the strong hair supporters like vitamin D and protein, and it also contains omega-3 fatty acids that promotes hair growth by keeping your scalp healthy.
