Foods and herbs that help grow long lustrous hair...

7/23/2022

Long, healthy hair is attainable by strengthening the hair follicles and improving scalp conditions. Adding the right kinds of food and herbs to your diet can help achieve better hair.  
 
Foods that are rich in omega-3 fatty acids are great for the skin and hair. Options for omega-3 fatty acid rich foods include nuts, such as walnuts and pumpkin seeds, and fish, such as salmon, sardines, mackerel, trout and herring. Salmon is the best fish in terms of nutrients because it is high in vitamin D and protein, as well as omega-3’s. Avocado is also packed with fatty acids and beneficial fats. The reason omega-3’s are great for hair is that it helps moisturize the hair and scalp.

​Walnuts are the best kind of nut when it comes to omega-3 intake. They also have nutrients such as biotin and vitamins like vitamin E. Our hair is often exposed to the sun and biotin, along with vitamin E, help prevent hair damage and add to hair shine. You can also use walnut oil in your diet instead of consuming whole walnuts. Nuts tend to be rich in vitamin E and also have selenium and zinc and should therefore be consumed regularly for healthy hair. 
 
Vitamin A rich foods like sweet potatoes, pumpkins and carrots help promote sebum production. Sebum acts as a conditioner to our scalp and lack of sebum is what often causes scalp problems such as itchiness and hair that is too dry. These vegetables are also rich in vitamin A, which is produced through their beta-carotene antioxidant. Other vitamin A rich foods include apricots, cantaloupes and mangoes. 
 
Zinc is necessary to keep the hair healthy and can be found in eggs, beef, nuts and oysters. Eggs are great for the hair since they have lots of protein and essential minerals such as iron and sulfur as well. Other sources of iron include spinach, fish, chicken, beef and pork. Dark leafed vegetables are beneficial to hair follicles. 
 
There are plenty of options for treating hair conditions with herbs. Rosemary is known for promoting hair growth and helps maintain luster. Aloe Vera also helps hair grow well and even conditions the scalp. Burdock is used to add shine to the hair and stimulate growth, as well as keep dandruff at bay. Chamomile is a soothing, natural conditioner and is sometimes used as a natural highlighter. Other herbs that keep hair strong and healthy include parsley and marigold.

    Our Journey to "Oneness" 

    It is a journey and like all journeys, it is set with many moments of challenges and accomplishments. 

    But when one's heart is true and the decision is made to "be the best that one can be", then each challenge merely seems like a stepping stone, to be overcome to reach and experience new heights of existential living.

    Hope you find these notes inspiring enough to initiate your own journey...
     
    ​What else will you find here??

    Here you will find thoughts, ideas, musings and  insights which make us reflect on the nature of our life and reality. I hope that these will connect with you. 


    These articles address the various insights, lessons and at times modern-interpretations of techniques and methods of ancient wisdom (particularly Vedic Culture) and also Shamanism, Buddhism, Druid- Paganism, Sufi Islam and Taoism. 

    It tries to bring the wisdom of ancient, insightful ways to benefit a modern, evolving and conscious lifestyle.

    Frankly it brings many of the spiritual concepts to  a "real  life" level!!

    Think of this guidance as "Spirituality for the Rest of Us"... folks who  have families,  careers,  material goals & ambitions  and so on... the ones  who cannot simply extrapolate what  typical spiritual gurus and guides say, when they live special monastic lives.  


    Each one of us may have different life situations but ultimately we are all ONE life and we all go thru these myriads of situations, experiences, thoughts and feelings at some point or other in time. 

    Read along and see how these lessons, insights and guidance can help you to chalk out your own path to 'One-ness'- where you are successful, healthy and Happy.   
    ​

    Do let me know of your experiences.

    I would love to read about them and promise to respond as much as possible.
