Foods to promote healthy hair and hair growth?

Question

Proteins, I'm sure...but I'd like to know very specific foods.

Answer 1

It us really not possible to eat food that contains all the elements of hair supplement pills, its is much easier to take the supplements and get everything in just a couple of capsules.
I have been taking hair supplements for the past 3 years and here is what I have found.
ProCaps labs makes a great supplement called "Hair Skin and Nails" formula, here is the link for that

This is in capsule form and easy to swallow. This company, ProCaps labs is also extremely reputable and carries pure and effective products.
I took GNC's Nourishair for four months, and supplemented it with extra Biotin tablets daily due to its low Biotin content. I took 2500 micrograms extra Biotin with the GNC pills.
The Procaps hair vites have 2500 micrograms of Biotin in them, and don't really require extra Biotin be taken, but I do take an additional 2500 micrograms of Biotin for a daily total of 5000 micrograms of Biotin.
My hair is growing in thick and dark and quite quickly. My hair used to be very slow growing, but all of these supplements have really made a difference.
The only way to really change the health of your hair is by taking supplements that work internally on the follicle where hair is made, any shampoos or oils or other topically applied things do nothing to change hair's structure, that can only happen with systemically provided support, which means supplements that you take internally.. Keep in mind, regardless of how many or how much you take of any supplement, hair is never going to grow at a "Jack and the beanstalk" type of rate, the most you can hope for is to improve the strength and health of each hair follicle and to see an incremental increase in the rate of its growth

Answer 2

Fish, eggs, soy protein, coconut oil will help hair be healthy and grow strong.

For baldness or hair loss issues, sugars and white grains can increase insulin in the body - some have said that this can cause hair loss. It's not too late to change your diet.

Increase your Omega 3s - from fish sources. That will make a huge diiference - find a good source though, because some claim that mercury levels and hair growth are connected.

Answer 3

Food, I'm not sure about, but try biotin. It's a natural herb. You can buy it in Wal-Mart or any health food store. It works for skin, hair and nails.

Answer 4

Try evening primrose oil and flaxseed oil. I've been taking them for like a month now and my hair has grown .like, 2 inches in length! :) LOVES IT!!!
Ps
you're suppose to deep condition your hair with those proteins e.g egg and mayo. sounds gross, but it works

and drink lots of water.

Good luck
