Once we have tackled making our bodies function properly from the inside, we begin to focus on improving our outside too. Changing your appearance doesn’t have to happen purely on the outside, it can also be affected by the nutrition that we put into our body. After all, everything natural about our appearance is influenced by the health of our bodies. We have selected our top 3 supplements that will help improve the quality of your hair.

Vitamin C – The Production of Collagen

Vitamin C is an essential nutrient that improves the appearance and strength of your hair and also fights against the signs of ageing. Vitamin C is responsible for the production of the collagen protein which builds the structure of the hair follicles; this makes your hair thicker and stronger. Not only does Vitamin C aid in collagen production, it also helps your body absorb Iron, which is essential for hair growth.

Foods rich in vitamin C – 

• Citrus fruits
• Peppers
• Strawberries
• Broccoli

Vitamin D – Follicle Production

Vitamin D has recently been further researched to link it’s purpose to the creation and growth of hair follicles. This will lead to thicker, stronger, and longer hair. If your body has low levels of vitamin D, it can cause problems such as hair loss and alopecia.

Food rich in vitamin D –

• Oil fish
• Fortified foods
• Egg yolks

The main way that our body absorbs vitamin D is through sunlight, however many people opt for a supplement during the winter months as their sunlight exposure is limited.

Zinc – Hair Tissue Growth and Repair

Zinc helps the oil glands function properly around the hair follicles which aids in health hair growth. Zinc deficiency can be a leading cause of hair loss as we age so it is important to maintain a diet rich in zinc or supplement with a daily vitamin/multivitamin.

Food rich in Zinc –

•  Beef
• Spinach
• Lentils
