The cells that support strong healthy hair depend on a balanced diet just like every other organ and parts of your body. If you follow a bad diet you may not notice the negative effects on your hair immediately. It can take longer to notice positive or negative changes in just one week with a bad diet. This can yield acne flare-ups in just a few days, you can notice a sallow skin, but it can take up to one month of nutritional deficiency and junk food for the effects to show up on your hair the nutrients you eat today help make the hair follicle vibrant and strong naturally. There are other factors connected with your hair's health and there's more to it than what you eat. If you smoke too much or if you have sleeping problems and maybe hormonal imbalances, your hair will still be in trouble. If the micro blood circulation of your hair follicle decreases, you can't help your hair unless you create the necessary vasodilation of the capillaries that allow the blood to reach the roots and follicles by the way. If you eat a balanced varied protein-rich diet based on the following foods you'll be giving your hair the exact nutrition it needs so here are the top 5 foods for strong hair

1) Blueberries 
fruits may come and go but when it comes to vitamin C, it's hard to top this nutritional element. Vitamin C is critical for blood circulation to the scalp and supports the small blood vessels that feed the follicles. A little C in your diet can eventually cause hair breakage.
Alternatives:- Strawberries, Kiwis and tomatoes.

2) Spinach 
contains folate beta-carotene iron and lots of vitamin C. These elements contribute to keep the hair follicles healthy and promote blood circulation.
Alternatives:- similar nutrient-rich dark leafy vegetables, Swiss chard, kale and broccoli.

3) Lentils 
Lentils are full of protein iron and zinc. This makes them a great nutritional element for both meat-eaters and vegetarians. Super alternatives are other beans such as kidney and soybeans.

4) Salmon
The flesh of this pink and super tasty fish is rich in omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin D and proteins. These are all key elements to strong hair. Our body can't make these fatty acids which are needed to grow hair. A small percentage of the hair shaft is made up of these fatty acids which are also situated in cell membranes in the skin of your scalp. Introducing salmon into your diet can help integrate these benefic acids into your body, helping your hair to grow stronger. Super alternatives:- if this fish is not your favourite you can also get essential fatty acids from other fishes like Mackerel, Sardines and Trout. Other good sources are avocado, pumpkin seeds and walnuts.

5) Walnuts
Walnuts are the only type of nut that have a good amount of omega-3 fatty acids. They're also rich in vitamin E and biotin which helps protect your cells from DNA damage. Biotin is very important for your hair and too little of it can lead to hair thinning. These nuts contained copper which helps maintain our natural hair colour rich and shining. Super alternatives you can use:- walnut oil.

The female equivalent tends to be female pattern hair loss which develops much more slowly. There are other types of hair loss which are not a hormone or genetic dependent and these include those that are autoimmune such as alopecia areata which is another very common cause of hair loss. There can also be alterations in the hair cycle and telogen effluvium or chronic telogen effluvium causes excessive hair shedding which can cause thinning and a reduction in the volume of the hair.                                          The commonest cause of hair loss is male pattern hair loss and that tends to presen...

"Hunger in India: What the Numbers Say and What the Government Claims"

     People in India are having a tough time, especially compared to their neighbours like Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal, and Sri Lanka. This info comes from something called the Global Hunger Index, which ranks countries on how well they're dealing with hunger. Unfortunately, India ranks 111 out of 125, which means only 14 countries are doing worse.        Now, here's the puzzle: Is India worse off than its neighbours, or is something else going on? Some people think there might be a plan to make India look bad. To understand this better, we need to know more about the Global Hunger Index.      The Global Hunger Index is a report made by groups from Ireland and Germany. It's all about hunger and nutrition problems worldwide. And it doesn't have good news for India. The report says that 16.6% of people in India are undernourished, 3.1% of young kids die before they turn five, and 58.1% of young women have anaemia. Plus, India has the highe...
