The loss of hair happens to both men and women. It usually happens to people in there 4th or 5th decade, but can start at a very early age. It seems we see it happening earlier and earlier in a persons life.

Getting proper nutrition is vital to healthy hair growth, while your body needs a variety of nutrients to maintain proper body functions, there are a handful that are key to hair growth and health.

In an attempt to be as useful as possible we will list the vitamin, any good food sources, and a recommended daily dose for supplementation:

1. Pantothenic Acid (Vitamin B5) - Prevents graying and hair loss. Food sources: Whole grain cereals, brewer’s yeast, organ meats and egg yolks. Daily dose: 4-7 mg.

2. Biotin - Helps produce keratin, may prevent graying and hair loss. Food sources: Brewer’s yeast, whole grains, egg yolks, liver, rice and milk. Daily dose: 150-300 mcg.

3. Biotin - Helps produce keratin, may prevent graying and hair loss. Food sources: Brewer’s yeast, whole grains, egg yolks, liver, rice and milk. Daily dose: 150-300 mcg.

This should give you at least a basic understanding of nutrition and hair growth. We also hope you now understand better the important role vitamins and specifically hair vitamins play in hair health. There are many herbal and natural hair growth remedies for you to look at on the market today, available without a prescription, we believe strongly that you should also discuss these products with your doctor.
