Hair loss can be a heartbreaking moment for many people when they face it in the mirror. While aging is inevitable, some may consider wearing a wig to combat the loss of hair. However, did you know that the foods you commonly consume might surprisingly be the culprits behind hair loss?
Fatty Foods
Foods rich in grease, such as French fries or pork belly, can trigger hair loss. Consuming such foods can increase neutral fats and cholesterol levels in the blood, making it sticky and hindering blood circulation. If blood circulation is not optimal, the scalp may receive insufficient nutrients, leading to hair loss. According to research by a team at the University of Tokyo, rats fed a high-fat diet showed signs of hair loss.
Raw Eggs
If you're fond of raw eggs, you should be cautious. The component 'avidin' found in egg whites can interfere with the absorption of 'biotin' in the body. Biotin is essential for producing 'keratin,' a component of hair. Therefore, if avidin hinders biotin absorption, the hair may not receive sufficient nutrients.
Brazil Nuts
The 'selenium' component in Brazil nuts can prevent aging and boost vitality when consumed in appropriate amounts. However, excessive intake may lead to selenium toxicity, known as selenosis. Symptoms of selenosis include hair loss, brittle nails, abdominal pain, diarrhea, vomiting, fatigue, and skin rashes. Therefore, it's essential to avoid excessive consumption of Brazil nuts.
To prevent hair loss, maintaining a healthy diet is crucial. It's advisable to reduce intake of greasy foods, excessive raw eggs, and Brazil nuts, while ensuring adequate intake of biotin. Adopting proper dietary habits is necessary for maintaining healthy hair.
