How to use Hair Loss Vitamins?

Hair loss is a vital problem faced by millions of people all over the world no matter of age or sex. People who are interacting with other people and have a job related to customer care very often have a bigger problem with losing hair or baldness.

Although there are numerous causes for hair loss, dietary insufficiency is found to be a major one. Especially a deficiency in B vitamins- especially B6, inositol, Biotin, and folic acid can resutl in hair loss. The B vitamins, especially B5 (pantothenic acid) and B3 (Niacin) are required for the growth of hair follicle.

In order to cure hair loss, vitamin supplement intake should be performed carefully. Research shows that excessive intake of vitamin B6 in most cases results in stimulated hair growth. In most cases deficiency in folic acid causes complete baldness.

The main function of Vitamin E is to transport oxygen in the blood and improves the scalp circulation. Vitamin E will enhance the immune function and thereby the hair health gets improved. So we can say Vitamin E is another hair loss vitamin. Vitamin E can be consumed @ 400 IU daily.

We can call vitamin C also as hair loss vitamin since it improves circulation of the scalp and maintains all capillaries, which carry blood to the follicles. This vitamin may be consumed 5,000 mg daily.

Other hair loss vitamins are Biotin, Inositol, and B-Vitamins. Biotin maintains the health of the hair. You should eat plenty of food to prevent hair loss due to biotin deficiency. You can also consume 50 mg of Biotin twice daily through food. The following food contains a lot of biotin: bulgur, green peas, lentils, walnuts, sunflower seeds, soybeans, oats, bulgur, Brewer’s yeast and brown rice. Inositol is also considered a hair loss vitamin. To stimulate hair growth you should consume100 mg twice daily.

A deficiency of vitamin A may also be the cause of hair loss. Once the intake of Vitamin A is stabilized, the hair loss may be stopped.

For better growth of hairs, B vitamins are necessary. Among the B vitamins, Vitamin B3 (Niacin), Vitamin B5 (Pantothenic acid) and vitamin B6 (pyridoxine) are termed as hair loss vitamins. B vitamins are rich in food like bran, nuts, eggs, soybeans, cauliflower, carrots, peas, and beans. Intake of these vitamins will help to improve quality, texture, and growth of hair.
