Minerals beneficial for Hair Health
Alimentary sources rich in iron, liver, fish, lentils, soy, folates, raw fruits and vegetables, legumes, eggs, nuts, magnesium-rich mineral waters, zinc, seafood, meats, whole grains, and legumes are recommended. Losing around 100 hairs per day is normal.
Causes of Magnesium Deficiency
Magnesium levels decrease due to a dietary reduction or the intestines’ inability to absorb nutrients. Alcohol, prolonged diarrhea, and some medications increase magnesium excretion. Treating hypomagnesemia also addresses underlying diseases.
Role of Magnesium in Digestion
Magnesium draws water into the intestines, hydrating the feces. Once hydrated, the feces are eliminated more easily. Magnesium also has an effect on abdominal cramps.
Vitamin Deficiency and Hair Loss
A lack of Vitamin B results in oily, dandruff-prone, lackluster, and balding hair. B-vitamins maintain healthy hair. Vitamin A nourishes hair, Vitamin C enhances circulation, Vitamins D and E prevent alopecia and increase oxygen absorption, and Vitamin H promotes growth.
