Millions and millions of people world wide suffer from partial or
complete hair loss. There exist varied reasons of this agonizing
problem. So it is very difficult for dermatologists to ascertain exact
reason of hair loss.
However if the loss of hair strikes after
usage of certain medications, it could be easily adjudged as a side
effect of medication. But many a times the underlying reasons for hair
loss remain unidentified. And one such hair loss is deficiency related
hair loss. Malnutrition or deficiency of nutrients and vitamins often
paves the way for hair fall. So you must check your sharp hair fall
against these deficiencies.
Hair follicles require certain
vitamins to carry on their constant function of regeneration and growth.
If follicles remain deprived of these vitamins they won't be able to
carry out their normal functioning and may result in hair loss.
Most
often due to poor dietary habits or disturbed metabolism folks happen
to be deficient with these vitamins. So a change in dietary habits or
food intake is necessary to ensure enough intake of necessary vitamins
for hair in order to prevent hair loss.
Vitamin A, E and B are of special significance in keeping the healthy hair.
Vitamin
A keeps hair moist by helping them to secrete sebum in scalp as per
requirement. This sebum keeps hairs away from dryness. This dryness of
hair happens to be first step towards hair fall. So there must not be
deficiency of this vital vitamin that also happens to be an anti
oxidant.
Vitamin E performs the vital function of increasing level
of blood circulation towards scalp and also helps follicle cells take
enough oxygen. This result in enhanced ability of follicles to
regenerate and grow hair. And the deficiency would adversely affect
follicular function.
And four different types of vitamin B also
cast adverse effect on hair condition if present in less than needed
level. Biotin is a complex vitamin B that effectively curbs hair loss
and contribute greatly in keeping hairs firm on scalp. Milk and egg yolk
are major sources to cover up this deficiency. Para Amino Benzoic Acid
is another B complex that is of equal significance for hair nourishment.
Vitamin B6 and Inositol are other two B vitamins that are necessary for
healthy hair.
If you are facing deficiency of these vitamins you
should incorporate food items in your diet to ensure sufficient intake
of these vitamins. It would lessen possibility of hair loss.
