3 healthy hair secrets
Eat these foods for your best-ever hair
1 Omega 3
Just as your skin is more sensitive and prone to dryness during winter, so too is your hair, so make sure you load up on essential fatty acids like those found in salmon, nuts and seeds. Essential fatty acids help to regulate hair growth and keep your strands looking lustrous.
2 Protein
Each hair strand is made of protein so it makes perfect sense that this macronutrient should form an important part of a healthy hair diet. Munch on chicken, fish, lentils and tofu for a gorgeous mane.
3 Zinc
If too many strands are ending up in your shower, nibbling on zinc-rich foods like pumpkin seeds and oysters can encourage hair growth.
