Hair loss is a common problem that can have many causes, including a lack of nutrients in your diet. If you’re looking for ways to promote healthy hair growth and treat hair loss, you may want to consider adding more anti-inflammatory foods to your daily menu.
We recently spoke with a dermatologist to find out which foods are the best for healthier, stronger tresses. Read on for tips, suggestions and insight from Dr. Enrizza P. Factor, dermatologist and writer at
My Eczema Team.Eat Your Way to Healthier Hair with these 4 Foods
1. Spinach
Factor notes that this healthy green
vegetable is loaded with beneficial nutrients "that promote hair
growth" like "folate, iron, and vitamins A and C." Spinach, she
says, is also a "great plant-based source of iron," which is
"essential for hair growth."
Iron helps red blood cells carry
oxygen throughout the body to fuel your metabolism, Factor adds, and aid growth and repair. "Spinach provides your body with
enough iron, folate, and calcium to get nails back into fighting shape,"
she concludes.
2. Nuts
Nuts are "tasty, convenient and
contain a variety of nutrients that may promote hair growth,"
Factor says. In addition to helping those with thinning hair to strengthen
their tresses, she says that nuts have "also been linked to a wide variety
of other health benefits."
Besides hair growth, she
says this includes "reduced inflammation and a lower risk of heart
disease."
3. Eggs
Eggs have many anti-inflammatory properties, Factor says, and they are
"also a great source of zinc, selenium and other hair-healthy
nutrients."
This, she says, makes them one of
the "best foods to consume for optimal hair health." They
are also incredibly versatile and an easy addition to many meals containing the
previously listed foods!
4. Avocados
If you're looking to add more fruit
to your diet while promoting your hair health, Factor explains that avocados and
oils made from them contain the micronutrient vitamin E, and it has helpful
anti-inflammatory effects. "Avocados are a great source of essential
fatty acids," Factor says.
"These fats cannot be produced
by the body, but are essential building blocks of your cells. A deficiency in
essential fatty acids has been linked to hair loss," she
concludes.
