Beautiful, long and healthy hair starts from within. I have been blessed with a lot of hair and I have some extra highlights and I love the blond spectre of colors. With hair it works just like with your skin those who eat healthy often have beautiful skin. Hair is mainly created by the protein keratin, which consists of amino acids. I try to keep that in mind but I also use plain beer to wash it sometimes. Have to do a #beersaturday blog about that soon ( note to self : Do beer mask blog the day after tomorrow for #beersaturday )

Back to hair. The health of hairgrowth depends entirely on what we eat, so break it down in the bloodstream, and on the circulation of blood to the scalp (which can be improved by massage, I highly recommend it , its sooo good).

I take multi vitamins for my health but also for my hair, seven nutrients you can eat for your hair or take in one vitamin tablet on a daily basis: * Zinc Zinc aids hair in a number of different ways: growth, repair and oil production in the scalp. Zinc supports tissue growth and repair and helps keep your scalp and hair healthy. It regulates the body's hormones (including testosterone) and helps maintain the production of oil-secreting glands on the scalp that help your hair grow. The latter is important because an unbalanced scalp can lead to inflammation; inflammation in turn leads to thinning hair. Zinc is an essential micronutrient that is often overlooked. It supports many enzymes in the body. Obviously, you shouldn't take too much of it - all in moderation. If you consume too much of it, this can cause stomach and intestinal problems. Zinc-rich foods include chickpeas, wheat germ, oysters, beef, veal liver, and roast beef. * vitamin B Biotin is perhaps the best known hair supplement. It has gained much acclaim due to a host of anecdotal and research-backed benefits. Biotin, Niacin and Cobalamin are among the most popular B-complex vitamins that help support the shine and thickness of hair strands. Too little biotin can cause brittle hair and lead to hair loss. Thinning hair and hair loss are common symptoms and can be supported by the addition of biotin. This is especially true if you have a low biotin content. In that case, it is recommended to eat foods rich in B vitamins, such as whole grains, eggs, avocados, yeast, liver and legumes. * MSM MSM is a sulfur that is naturally present in our body, as well as in certain plants. It supports collagen and keratin, which are fundamental building blocks for skin, hair and nails. In particular, MSM contains the amino acid cysteine, a key element responsible for the maintenance of skin and hair tissue. It also supports wound healing and is generally great for healthy skin, hair, bones and connective tissue. MSM-rich foods include cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, kale, asparagus, onions and garlic. Thank god we eat a lot of broccoli * Collagen Collagen powder is often praised for its gut and skin support benefits. It should also be praised for supporting hair health. Collagen is especially rich in the amino acid proline, the main amino acid in keratin. It is also said to contribute to better scalp health and help manage oxidative stress. Oxidative stress is one of the leading causes of hair loss in humans. You can find collagen in bone broth, but you can also get it by taking collagen supplements. * Protein Although collagen is a very specific type of protein, it is good to make sure you get complete proteins too; it is essential for many functions in the body. Our muscle mass gets the most attention, but it is also very important for hair growth. That's why hair loss is one of the most common signs of protein deficiency. Since hair is primarily protein a diet with too little protein can promote pigment loss, causing grayness. A diet rich in high quality, naturally occurring protein will work wonders for your hair. You can find protein in eggs, beans, nuts, lentils, chicken, turkey and salmon. * Omega-3 fat-acids Omega-3 fat acids are nourishing, both inside and out. The essential nutrients reach both the hair shaft and the cell membranes in your scalp, nourish hair follicles and promote healthy hair growth. In addition, they add elasticity to your hair, which can prevent breakage and hair loss. The body cannot produce omega-3 fat acids on its own, so it is very important to adopt a diet rich in flaxseeds, walnuts, salmon, tuna, kale, Brussels sprouts, and small fatty fish such as anchovies. * Selenium Selenium is a trace element that helps the body make selenoproteins, which maintain reproduction, metabolism, DNA synthesis and immunity. It also supports hair follicles to stimulate new growth. If you have selenium deficiencies you risk hair follicle abnormalities, reduced growth and hair loss. However, there is also some evidence that too much selenium will lead to brittle hair. Selenium-rich foods include Brazil nuts, tuna, halibut, shrimp and sardines. So as you can see fish is great to eat for your hair and body so that can be a fun fact to tell the kids. I do ! I also know that there a gummy bears blue ones that are great to er and good for your hair, I see that on Instagram from the bachelor nation girls, don’t think we got them here but if you have taken them and it’s good let me know in the comments. For now I will leave you with the fact that I also got this great thing for pre thanksgiving/Sinterklaas from my best friend but I will do another blog ability it soon when I used it properly.
