Hair Vitamins Help Healthy Hair Growth

Hair vitamins are gaining in popularity as people report use of them have increased the health and ability to grow their hair long.

B vitamins are amongst the most helpful. They are water-soluble, which means they won’t build up in your body like some other vitamins do. Therefore, you will need a regular intake to maintain healthy levels in your system.

If you have time to plan your meals, you can add foods that are Vitamin B rich to your diet.

There are plenty to choose from, like, whole grains, brewer’s yeast (hmm tasty?), protein foods like, eggs, fish, turkey, meat, and milk (I wonder if ice cream counts?).

Or you could take a specially formulated hair vitamin!

It saves time not having to plan your meals EVERY day, and they’re convenient to take when you’re on the move.

Don’t forget though, eating healthy enhances the effect of the vitamin supplement.

The various B Vitamins have their own special powers:

Here is a list of the different types.

• Para-aminobenzoic acid may prevent your hair from going gray.
• Inositol can help prevent hair loss.
• Niacin (vitamin B-3) promotes blood circulation to your scalp.
• Panthenol (vitamin B-5) may stop hair loss and help to regrow hair.
• Biotin can also prevent your hair from premature graying. It’s an ultra essential vitamin for preventing hair loss.
• Vitamins B-6 and B-12 have also been shown to play a role in growing healthy hair.

Vitamin E can really help people who are struggling with hair loss

It’s an antioxidant that stimulates your scalp by increasing blood circulation.

An increase in blood circulation makes more nutrients available to your hair follicles so each one can grow stronger, healthier hair.

Regular intake helps to achieve glossy, strong hair. Vitamin E is great for skin too.

Some other vitamins that can help you in your quest for lustrous locks are explained below:

• Vitamin A aids in keeping your hair from thinning.
• Vitamins E and C give you a lustrous head of hair and contribute to healthier, thicker hair.
• Biotin assists in reducing hair loss and premature grey hair.
• Vitamin B2 helps to increase your body’s production of essential scalp oils (sebum) which keep your scalp in a healthy condition.
• Vitamin B6 assists in vigorous hair growth.
• Zinc does what Biotin does.
• Vitamin B3/Niacin promotes hair growth.
• Magnesium is a mineral worth taking. A lack of it can potentially cause hair loss.

Garlic supplements are also great to reduce hair shedding.
