Nutrition for your hair should be nutrition for your body. The story we share today was a hair transition with nutrition and some topical hair loss treatment. Because of some deficiency status here we need to use nutrition from supplements and nutrition from food.
To achieve hair transition with nutrition and nutrition for your hair in the presence of nutritional deficiency, both food and supplementation are required. Food alone cannot fix a deficiency and supplements alone cannot fix a deficiency.
Best nutrients for hair growth
The best nutrients for hair growth will support and correct cellular health. Here we had 50% breakdown of hair health at a cellular level, this resulted in diffuse hair loss and diffuse hair thinning. This then led to early onset male pattern hair thinning.
Cellular health, correcting a hair cell and the hair cycle need, in order of importance, these best nutrients for hair growth, in a pH balanced environment:
- Body ph balance
- Minerals, 60-80 essential minerals required by body cells every day
- EFA, essential fatty acids
- Vitamins, both water and fat soluble
- Antioxidants
- Pre and probiotics
Best nutrients for hair growth will include all of these in balance. Minimum one meal a day is required to support nutrition and nutrients for hair growth. Most people are not getting once decent meal a day to support the body health let alone hair health.
Food for healthy hair and skin
Examples of food for healthy hair and skin should include the best nutrients for hair growth. Body pH balance can be checked and amended with Easy pH test kit.
- Minerals can be found in clean animal proteins and plants that have been fed all the minerals, not just selected fertilizers, coconuts and very mineralised as is safe natural salt.
- EFA’s are found in wild caught fish, pasture raised eggs, clean animal proteins, coconut, cold pressed oils, avocado, nuts, and seeds.
- Most vitamins are found in fresh, raw, vegetables and fruit, some like vitamin D and vitamin K the body cannot make and need to come from other sources.
- The body should make antioxidants if all the above is in order.
- Pre and probiotics can be found in high fibre natural foods and fermented foods.
It is possible to achieve food for healthy hair and skin with a balanced and variable diet. But when deficiency or specific problem is present, supplements may be required to achieve the desired result.
Best diet for hair growth
The best diet for hair growth follows food combining. Food combining is covered in the easy pH test kit. Food combining is the best diet for hair growth because it assists nutrient absorption when eating the right food. It is not just what you eat, but also what you absorb.
Food combining is simple, animal proteins and acid foods are combined with alkaline and non- starchy or non-carbohydrate foods. Example of best diet for hair growth:
- Beef, broccoli, cauliflower, carrot in one meal
- Chicken, capsicum, mushroom, onion in one meal
- Egg, avocado, spinach, asparagus in one meal
- Tofu, chickpeas, kale, rice in one meal
Food combining does not combing rice, pasta, or bread with animal proteins. These high carbohydrate foods are best eaten with vegetables.
Hair loss supplements – hair vitamins
Warning, hair loss supplements are very generic and generally only make hair grow faster. They have nice hair, skin, and nail friendly vitamins, but do not correct hair growth problems. Most hair loss supplements and hair vitamins are also targeted toward pattern hair thinning and DHT inhibitors, most people don’t need these.
Again, in this case it was a broken hair cycle, diffuse hair loss and diffuse hair thinning form the deficiencies that were the underlying cause. General hair vitamins cannot fix all these problems, are will they even absorb in such a problematic environment.
Hair nutrition for men – hair nutrition for women
Here we talk about the pattern hair tinning, which is not physical hair loss. You see in these pictures, there is a distinct pattern in the recessions and top, even after the first 4 month of hair loss treatment with nutrition.
You need to correct the hair cell and hair cycle first, or at the same time as using DHT related hair growth treatments. Hair nutrition for men and hair nutrition for women with pattern hair thinning should avoid hormones in food, particularly animal proteins.
- Grass fed beef
- Hormone free chicken
- Pasture raised lamb
- Pasture raised chickens for eggs
- Wild caught fish
Sadly, hormones in our food is a real thing and it does contribute to the early onset of both male and female pattern hair thinning.
