Both your scalp and hair needs nourishment or you could face having thinning hair or the prospect of your hair actually falling out.  We punish our hair on a regular basis in this day and age so it really helps to makes sure that we give it the ability to replenish and repair itself.

Make sure you get enough A, C and E in your system so that your body can fight off infections that can cause your hair to get very thin. When the body is deprived of these vitamins you become vulnerable to anti-inflammatory disorders of the scalp that can also cause you to lose your hair.  It is easy to be deprived of these vitamins because many of us have toxic livers that just don’t absorb A and E like we used.  Vitamin C is soluble and must be replenished every day.  This is important because the tugging, pulling and handling we do all of the time on our tresses does cause inflammation of the scalp.

All citrus fruits are a generous source of Vitamin C. Vitamin C is also found in minute amounts in many vegetables including oranges, melons and strawberries. Kale is a really good source of Vitamin C as well, even after you pan fry it with a bit of olive oil and garlic.  A great dish is Kale served with roasted squash that is drizzled with lemon juice. You get all three of the vitamins in one great organic salad.

To obtain Vitamin A stick to eating yellow fruits and vegetables like mango, papaya, peaches, carrots, sweet potatoes and yams.  A deficiency of Vitamin A can eventually cause hair loss but first you hair will become brittle, dry and break a great deal. This is definitely a warning sign that you need to eat more of the vegetable and fruits in the yellow-orange family or at least take a vitamin A, C and E combination.

Perhaps the riches vegetarian sauce of Vitamin E is an avocado. It is also found in olive oil and all canned fish. Cooked fish is a source of both B vitamins and Vitamin E.

If you want to get A, C and E together in one vitamin supplement, buy the formula known as ACE or ACES.  The ACES formula also includes selenium, which is excellent for hair growth and also reversing the graying of hair.
