Food and Hair Health

[ArinaDonne]

Has anyone noticed that their hair has changed with a change in your eating habits. I recently bought a juicer and I have noticed softer hair that needs less moisturizer. I have decided to juice besides taking supplements. I just finished taking a nutrition class, and learned that too much of a vitamin can cause toxicity. To combat this I have decided that juicing will be safer with of course regular check ups with the doctor to make sure that everything is well with my body. Has anyone noticed that they do not need added vitamins to grow or nourish their hair?

Juicing is definitely a great thing. I juice as well when I feel like it. I eat a lot of fruits, vegetables and whole grains. I also eat little meat and mostly fish. Since this has always been my diet, I cannot really if I saw a change, but I can say I get really good growth. I take prenatal vitamins, have for over a year now, and they supply you with exactly what you need. I stopped taking the others because the vitamin levels in those are dangerously high at times. As long as you have a good diet, vitamins just give you enough to make up for what you cannot overeat.

I have noticed, and was just chatting with my mom about this, how my nutrition intake affects my skin, my mood, my hair, and my body! Eating grease makes me sluggish, but it also shows on my skin. I drink green smoothies and can attest that they play a role in how nourished my hair feels as well.

It's funny that when you put in the nutrients you should be getting and less of what you shouldn't how your body responds to your benefit. But old habits (habits in general) are hard to break!

Honestly, no -- my hair grows & retains at the same rate if I eat McDonald's and drink soda every day or if I eat salads, take vitamins and drink loads of water. Guess I'm just lucky in that regard.

I see a difference. I lazy juice though. I drink naked green machine by the boat load! My hair grows quicker whwn I diet and exercise.
