Just like any other body part, our hair too needs a lot of nutrients in order to grow and be healthy. As the nutrients first go to the essential tissues, it is important to get enough of them to ensure healthy hair on the head.

7 Tips to Nourish, Protect and Strengthen Your Hair Follicles

TOP NUTRIENTS FOR HAIR FOLLICLES:

Omega 3- fatty acids: These nourish the entire noggin. The required essential nutrients reach not just the hair shaft but also the cell membranes in our scalp. this results in nourishing the hair follicles and improve hair growth. They add the much-required electricity to our hair, restricting much of hair breakage. But, our body can not produce omega 3- fatty acid on its own so one has to be careful in choosing whatever we eat.

  • Food items rich in omega 3- fatty acids: Salmon, Walnuts, Tuna, Flaxseeds, Brussels Sprouts etc.

Zinc: It helps in keeping the scalp and hair healthy. It improves tissue growth and repair. Zinc controls and coordinates hormones (testosterone included) in the body and helps by maintaining production of oil-secreting glands on our scalp that help in hair growth. There is no need to be enthusiastic, though as high levels of testosterone are actually linked to hair loss problem. As per the Office of Dietary Supplements, one only needs 11 mg a day. While it’s not proven that your body will go on a T rampage in case one consumes too much zinc, but there is no need to tempt hair follicle fate.

  • Food items rich in Zinc: Wheat Germ, Roast Beef, Beef, Chickpeas, Veal Liver etc.

Protein: The human hair is pretty much pure protein. In case you plan to skip this essential nutrient, be prepared to have bulging biceps but a bald head. Just in case if you don’t hang onto your hair, eating too little of it can turn your locks grey. One must opt for a diet that is rich in high quality, naturally occurring protein.

  • Food items rich in Protein: Egg Yolks, Greek Yoghurt, Peanuts, Peas, Beans, Tofu etc.

Iron: Eating iron is mandatory just in case you are thinking about healthy circulation. It simply helps deliver blood to the body’s cells. Carelessness in this regard would cause blunders as your blood would stop carrying enough oxygen to your scalp which is utmost important to stimulate hair growth.

  • Food items rich in Iron: Whole Grains, Dark Leafy Greens, Red Meat, Clams, Oysters.

Vitamins A & C: Both of these vitamins lead to the production of sebum (a substance that the hair follicles spit out). It acts as a natural hair conditioner and also prevents hair from breaking off. Vitamin C is also known to enhance the amount of blood-boosting iron that our body can easily use.

While all these nutrients are good for us but a overdose can result in hair loss too. Like: more than 15,000 IU of vitamin A can result in hair loss. Thus, the recommended daily allowance of the vitamin for men is only 5000 IU per day.

  • Food items rich in Vitamin A & C:Pumpkin, Sweet potato, Broccoli, Spinach etc.

Magnesium: It is known to be the fourth most abundant mineral in the human body and it is required for more than 300 biochemical reactions of which hair growth is just one. In case, an individual doesn’t get enough of it, it causes increased inflammation and hair loss.

  • Food items rich in Magnesium: Halibut, Almonds, Spinach, Lentils, Cashews, Brown Rice etc.

Selenium: A very small element that helps the human body in making selenoproteins that is further responsible to regulate metabolism, reproduction, DNA synthesis, immunity and it also stimulates hair follicles to boost hair growth.

  • Food items rich in Selenium: Harn, Brazil Nuts, Tuna, Shrimp Sardines etc.

I am honestly thankful to Advanced Hair Studios. I suffer from a hair-pulling disorder. There is this constant urge to pull off your hair follicles. It is painless when you pull but extremely painful when you see a missing patch on your scalp. But, I feel blessed with AHS hair fall treatment. I can see baby hair growing. It’s been two weeks. All I can see is low hair fall.

I have done my hair transplant surgery in AHS Delhi Branch on 2019 by travelling to Delhi from Dhaka, Bangladesh. The front and the back portion of my head were bald and through the hair transplant surgery, they have managed to cover the front portion of my head and the former appearance of my face returned back. The way they collected hairs from the donor portion did not affect my donor area at all. I am quite happy with my result. I have been consulting with them for a second seating so that they can cover the back portion of my head as well so that the hair density on top will increase and the bald portion of my head will reduce to a minimum level.
