Hair should be taken care of not only from the outside, but also from the inside. In this case, supplements and care products alone are not enough. The condition of hair is influenced by the nutrients supplied. It may be said that what you eat on your plate indirectly affects the condition and length of your hair. Here are some of the foods you should eat to have long hair!
Lentils and chickpeas are legumes that contain a lot of nutritional value. They are recommended to eat because they are high in protein, the main building block of keratin – and therefore of hair. What is more, the amino acids in protein improve the structure of hair strands, making them smooth and shiny
These products contain a lot of zinc, copper and silicon. What’s more, they are composed mainly of healthy fats, which directly translates to the state of our health. If consumed regularly, you will notice an improvement in the condition of your hair and its faster growth
Avocados are a fruit rich in vitamins E, C, B6 and folic acid as well as valuable amino acids, mainly tyrosine. These nutrients have a positive effect on hair growth and avocados themselves contain lutein, which protects cells from premature aging
Dried fruits are rich in iron, which women often lack. The lack of iron increases the loss of hair strands and weakens their condition. Add dried fruits to your daily breakfast if you want to see a significant improvement in hair growth.
Sweet potatoes are also known as yams. They are an invaluable source of beta-carotene, which is converted to vitamin A in the body. A deficiency of this vitamin makes hair grow slower and fall out more often. What’s more, its low amount in the body results in dry scalp and dandruff, so it’s worth taking care of its levels
