Nurture Hair to Health
When it comes to hair loss, our biggest concern is usually how this will affect the way our hair looks. It’s a natural concern for most women (and men!) to have. The health of our hair, however, is actually what we need to evaluate. From scalp conditions to what we eat, there are several areas related to health that you should consider if you notice a change in your hair growth and texture.
“Hair health depends on blood supply, circulation and nutrition,” says ChicagoHealers.com Practitioner Dr. Melody Hart. “It can also be from one’s thyroid, liver hormones and stress levels.” Whether you’re suffering from hair loss or want to prevent it from happening, these expert tips will help you keep your hair its healthiest.
Eating and Drinking for Hair
Check the ingredients in the food you eat. Are your meals enriching? A lot of foods lack vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. For instance, eating organic can greatly improve hair health, says Dr. Julia Tatum Hunter, dermatologist and founder of Skin Fitness Plus in Beverly Hills, CA. “The closer to nature—raw green foods—you eat, the more alkaline and healthy your skin and body will become,” she explains. “You must address your skin and body internally and externally to achieve health and turn back the clock.”
