A well balanced diet can help you keep healthy and strong. What you eat can also keep you from losing your hair´s quality and shine, maybe stop it being a contributor to hair loss. If you’re not getting certain nutrients from food, you might see the effects in your hair.

Essential fatty acids, especially omega-3s, play a key role in the health of your skin, hair, and nails. You should eat some of these foods, which are rich in omega-3, every day:

Salmon, tuna, mackerel, and other fatty fish

Flaxseed oil

Walnuts and almonds

Vitamins B6, B12, and folic acid are also important to your hair. Foods with B6 include bananas, potatoes (both white and sweet), and spinach. Major sources of B12 include meat, poultry, fish, and dairy products.

You can get folic acid with plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables, especially citrus fruits and tomatoes. Whole-grain and fortified-grain products, beans, and lentils also have it.

Protein is also critical for keeping your hair healthy, but many people don't get enough. Lean meats like fish and chicken, eggs, and soy products are good sources. Eat one serving every day.

Because trace minerals like iron, magnesium , zinc, and biotin also affect hair, it's worth considering a supplement if not getting in your diet.

Having a well balanced healthy diet can only help you overall. But hair loss has many causes. Sometimes, genetic factors like male or female pattern baldness can play a role. Thyroid disease, anaemia, autoimmune diseases, and hormone issues may also cause changes or loss of hair.

A balanced diet plays a crucial role in maintaining healthy hair. Nutrient-rich foods like vitamins, minerals, and proteins promote hair growth, strength, and shine. Incorporating foods such as leafy greens, eggs, and nuts into your diet can help prevent hair thinning and damage, ensuring your hair stays vibrant and nourished from root to tip.

A balanced diet rich in vitamins, minerals, and protein is essential for healthy hair growth.

A balanced, nutrient-rich diet is key to promoting healthy hair. Incorporating foods rich in vitamins, minerals, and proteins—such as leafy greens, nuts, and lean proteins—supports hair growth and strengthens strands from the inside out. Omega-3 fatty acids, found in fish and seeds, help keep the scalp nourished, while vitamins like biotin, vitamin E, and zinc contribute to overall hair health. Staying hydrated and reducing processed foods also play a crucial role in maintaining vibrant, shiny hair. The healthier the diet, the better your hair will look and feel!
