Naturally Healthy Hair
Healthy hair can start from within. Great products can help, but great
nutrition is the key to having the healthiest hair possible. Hair needs a
healthy diet to stay beautiful. That means you'll have to watch what you eat
and drink to properly nourish your hair. The proper nourishment can mean the
difference between brittle, dry and frizzy to strong, moist, and shiny!

Strength
Eating foods high in protein will help strengthen weak hair. Healthy hair
contains a lot of protein. Protein will add strength to the hair shaft which
will keep hair from snapping or splitting and therefore less damage will occur.
A protein rich diet will also improve hair growth. Try eating foods high in
protein such as, meat, fish, beans, eggs, dairy products, and nuts.
Moisture
Drink plenty of fluids. The fix to dry, brittle hair is to drink eight to ten
glasses of water a day. Each hair strand is made up of one-fourth of water.
Don't wait until you are thirsty to hydrate, this means your body has already
lost more water than it should have. Keep yourself and your hair hydrated
throughout the day. Water is essential to keeping hair moist.
Shine
Foods high in vitamins and minerals will promote shine and even hair growth.
If you want shiny, long, vibrant hair try eating foods with the minerals iron and
copper in them such as shellfish, liver, vegetables, and red meat. Eating foods
with vitamins B and C such as fruit, vegetables, cereals, and bread will promote
shiny, supple hair.
-You may also use supplements to ensure you receive all the nutrition needed for
beautifully, healthy hair.
Remember, a lack of nutrition can lead to damaged, unhealthy hair. You may even
notice slow or no hair growth, even thinning or balding. So watch what you eat and
stay away from foods high in sugar and fat. Do not drink carbonated sodas and
caffeine, stick to water and juices.
Try these tips and see how amazingly beautiful your hair can naturally be. You have
the knowledge, don't waste it! Take control of that frizzy, dry, brittle hair and
start enjoy healthy hair.
