Raisins

Good blood flow in your scalp will stimulate hair growth. Iron is the main key to manufacturing hemoglobin and hemoglobin is the one that carries oxygen trough your body – and hair! Raisins, eggs, dark green leafy vegetables, dates and whole-grain cereals are great – they are high in iron. You could also add lemons and oranges to your diet as they contain Vitamin C, and Vitamin C improves the absorption of iron.

Seafood

One of the things why zinc is useful – it manages the glands that attach to hair follicles. If your body has lack of zinc, hair follicles became weak and strands may break off or fall out. Eat shrimp, mussels, oysters, fish… but you can also treat yourself with red meat and poultry.

Eggs, beans and fish

Since hair is mostly made of protein, it sounds reasonable to eat eggs, beans and fish. Why not eat a steak? Simply because red meat is high-fat food. High-fat food increases testosterone level in your body which might result in hair loss. Therefore eat fish instead – it’s good for more than just your hair.

Potatoes

Hey this doesn’t mean I just gave you a green light to enjoy greasy french fries! Rather cook it, use it in salads or as a side dish to seafood – it’s a great combination!

Bean sprouts

Bean sprouts, potatoes and green peppers – rich in silica! No matter how strange it may sound, silica should be a part of your hair loss prevention diet because our body uses it to help absorb vitamins and minerals.
