There are a wide variety of products that will help you to achieve perfect healthy hair. However, you must remember that eating a healthy diet is one key component that you can not leave out of achieving that awesome hair that you crave. Last Tangle Salon recently stumbled across a list of top 10 foods you can eat in order to make your hair grow healthy and happy with all the nutrients it needs. Take a look at the top 5 foods:

1. Salmon

Salmon is packed with omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin B-1, iron and protein. Omega-3 fatty acids are essential for scalp health.

 

2. Dark Green Vegetables

Spinach is a great source of vitamins A and C. Your body needs these vitamins to produce sebum, which  is the body’s natural hair conditioner.  Broccoli and Swiss chard are great sources also.

 

3. Beans

Bean are not only good for your heart, they are good for your hair too! Legumes like kidney beans and lentils provide a pack of protein that promotes hair growth, ample iron, zinc, and biotin.

 

4. Nuts

Brazil nuts are great for the health of your scalp and walnuts have alpha-linolenic acid which may help condition your hair.  Cashews, pecans, and almonds are great sources for zinc.

 

5. Poultry

Chicken and turkey are high in protein which your hair can never get enough of.
