Fine Hair, Limp, Delicate Hair And The Effects Your Food Has On It.
Fine Hair, You Don’t Need A Lot Of Protein To Have Healthy Hair.
But You Do Need A lot Of Other Foods To Keep It From Looking Dreadful.
Fine Hair and Protein Myths
A lot of people think that you can increase your hair’s vitality by what you eat – and they are correct. However, a lot of people are wrong to assume that you need to consume a lot of protein, and specifically animal protein, to have healthy hair. For example, some people recommend those with fine hair consume a lot of eggs. Nothing could be further from the truth!
Here’s a personal example. My mother and I both have fine, thin, straight hair. She has eaten meat all her life, while I am a strict vegetarian (vegan). No matter that our diets differ, we both have similar quality hair. Of course part of this is genetic. But also, this is because we both get a well-balanced diet (mine just doesn’t contain any animal products).
Your Fine Hair And Your Diet
To increase the vitality of your hair through diet, you need to include the following on a regular basis:
- Clean water
- A wide array of fruits and vegetables, preferably raw or cooked low-heat
- A good selection of protein from several sources including: soy protein/flour, plant protein (like whole grains and rice) and brewers yeast.
