Pravrajya Suruchi

High Sugar and Refined Carbs:  Simple carbohydrates and processed foods with high sugar content can be detrimental to hair health.

Unhealthy Fats: While some fats are essential for hair health, excessive saturated and trans fats from processed foods potentially affect hair follicle health.

Lack of Essential Nutrients:  Iron, zinc, vitamin D, biotin, and protein are all crucial nutrients for hair growth.

Excessive Sodium Intake:  A diet high in sodium can lead to dehydration, which can affect hair health and potentially contribute to hair loss.

Certain Crash Diets:  Severe calorie restriction or crash diets can deprive your body of essential nutrients needed for hair growth.

Alcohol: Excessive alcohol consumption can disrupt nutrient absorption and hinder hair growth.

Highly Processed Foods:  Processed foods are often low in nutrients and high in unhealthy fats, sodium, and sugar.
