July 29, 2009


With so many medical treatments that offer great results, people have forgotten home remedies for cure of hair loss. Most people choose Minoxidil or hair transplant treatments to get rid of hair loss and fail to realize and understand that these treatments are not only on the pockets but also pose the risk of many side effects.

Infact some of the most cost effective, best and minimal risk treatments are dieting, exercise, herbal remedies and proper maintenance of hair.

The most important thing to remember when trying to cure hair loss is to look at your daily diet. Certain foods work great for hair. The lack of certain minerals, nutrition’s and vitamins can lead to hair loss. High protein food which is low in carbohydrate content and fat content help maintain healthy hair. Eating foods that are high in their fatty acid content like walnuts, spinach, soya, sardines, canola oil and sunflower seed are great for hair. Omega 3 and omega 6 acids have anti – inflammatory properties which also help in reducing hair loss.

Deficiency of Vitamin B6 and Vitamin B12 can also lead to hair loss. Vitamin B is contained in foods like chicken, liver, soya bean, fish and other high protein foods. Increasing the content of Vitamin B in your daily diet would surely make your hair healthier and would also reduce hair loss. If you feel your Vitamin B intake is not sufficient, take a supplement after consulting a doctor.

Herbal remedies which include the use of Saw Palmetto have been found to be effectual too.
