Among men, a full head of hair is associated with youth, power and virility. For women, their hair is their crowning glory. It's no wonder then that thinning hair is a serious concern; though it has something to do with looks, hair loss can also signal loss of control over one of life’s inescapable realities – ageing.
Loss of hair for women can be embarrassing; at least for men, male pattern baldness occurs in about 70% of them. For women, the numbers are much smaller, so any woman with thinning hair stands out in the crowd and is an easy prey for shaming. Not unusually, loss of hair could lead to loss of self-esteem, social withdrawal, and consequently, depression.
Aesthetic clinics in Singapore observe that among women, hair damage and loss can be attributed to over styling, coloring, frequent heat application, and extensions. For men, hair loss is often linked to genetics and stress.
So is there a way keep hair loss at bay, and even reverse it? Can we eat our way to hair health and put off hair transplantation as the ultimate last resort? It turns out, hair, just like skin, can be nourished from within.Medical clinic Singapore patients can now have thicker, fuller, beautiful hair with Viviscal Professional Dietary supplements. These are scientifically formulated, 100% drug-free dietary supplements that have been clinically-proven to stimulate hair growth and nourish thinning hair using proprietary AminoMar CTM marine complex.
To support hair growth, you may take Viviscal with a colorful plate of the following food groups.
Protein
Hair is made of keratin, a type of protein. It stands to reason then, that for healthy hair, we need to consume enough protein. Fish, such as tuna, salmon and halibut, are very rich sources. Lean poultry is another (which is why turkey and chicken are favored over red meats), followed by lean beef and veal. For vegetarians, tofu, nuts, seeds and beans top the choices. Dairy sources brimming with protein are Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, and milk. (Soy milk is a non-dairy substitute.) When you don’t get sufficient protein, hair growth "rests". Because hair growth cycle involves older hair falling out, before long, you will be left with hair in the resting stage without new hair growth replacing those which you lost.
Iron
Iron is an essential mineral for hair growth since it carries oxygen to the roots. If you have an alarmingly high rate of falling hair, it could be that you have iron deficiency but not necessarily anemic. Be aware, however, that taking supplements without doctor’s advice can be hazardous to your health. Make sure instead that you have a healthy dose of dietary (instead of supplemental) iron, which you can get from red meat, egg yolk and mollusks. If you are into plant-based diet, you can get iron from green leafy vegetables, dried fruits such as prunes and raisins, soybeans, broccoli, pumpkin and iron-fortified cereals.
Minerals – Zinc and Silica
A skin care specialist typically prescribes products containing zinc for problems relating to skin and scalp. This is because zinc encourages cell reproduction, tissue growth, and repair. It also helps maintain the oil-secreting glands attached to the hair follicles. To facilitate the absorption of zinc, add a dash of silica to your diet. Rich sources of zinc usually come from foods of animal origin such as poultry, seafood, mussels, shrimp, and oysters. Plant-based sources are nuts, seeds, legumes and whole-grain products, though these are less absorb-able by the body. Foods high in silica are oats, millet, barley, potatoes, whole wheat grain, Jerusalem artichoke, red beets, corn, asparagus and rye.
B Vitamins
Lesser known vitamins B5and B7 are essential nutrients for hair growth. Also known as pantothenic acid, vitamin B5is usually associated with hair pigmentation while biotin or vitamin B7 helps nourish thinning hair and promote growth of existing hair.
