Star Ingredients
Avocados are rich in healthy fats, such as omega-3 fatty acids, essential for nourishing the scalp and promoting hair growth. They also contain vitamins E and C, antioxidants that help protect the hair follicles from damage.
Eggs are an excellent source of biotin, a B vitamin essential for healthy hair growth. Biotin helps strengthen the hair strands, prevent hair breakage, and promote overall hair health.
Chia seeds are a great omega-3 fatty acids, protein, and fiber source. Omega-3s help nourish the hair follicles, promote scalp health, and reduce inflammation, which can contribute to hair loss. Protein is crucial for hair structure and strength, while fiber supports nutrient absorption.
Whole-grain bread is a healthier alternative to refined bread, as it contains more nutrients and fiber. It provides complex carbohydrates, a good energy source for the body, including the hair follicles.
