Foods That May Help Keep Your Hair Healthy

Eating healthy foods is not only beneficial for your body, mind, heart and overall health, it's also necessary to keep your locks long and strong. Try adding these tasty power foods into your daily diet for extra nutrition for your hair.

1. Oysters:

A lack of zinc in your diet may lead to hair loss. Oysters have an abundance of zinc. Eating oysters can easily reach the necessary amount of zinc you should have per day in small servings. Other foods that you can eat to fill the zinc quota are nuts and eggs.

2. Spinach:

Everyone knows what happens to the cartoon character Popeye when he eats spinach. He gets big and strong and can take on anything. Well, eating spinach may also have positive effects on your hair. Spinach contains nutrients such as Iron and Vitamin C that your hair follicles need to stay healthy. If you don’t like spinach then broccoli is another healthy alternative.

3. Greek Yogurt:

Greek yogurt is another option packed with nutrition that may keep your hair healthy. Greek yogurt contains vitamins B5 and D, which are essential to quality hair follicle health. Other alternatives are cottage cheese and skim milk.

4. Poultry:

Hair is made up of nearly all protein, so what could be better to eat than chicken. Poultry contains zinc, iron, and vitamin B. If you currently have a lack of protein in your diet, adding poultry, such as chicken, can fill that void and may even keep your hair healthy. One alternative is lean beef.

5. Sweet Potatoes:

Sweet potatoes may be an excellent option for those in need of more vitamin A. A lack of vitamin A may lead to an itchy scalp and possibly dandruff. Some alternatives to sweet potatoes are apricots, mangoes, carrots, and cantaloupe.
