Many people always want to know, “What is the SECRET to hair growth?”  There is no real big secret to hair growth; in fact, the primary driver of hair growth is no secret at all.  Attaining and maintaining positive hair growth starts from the inside first.  Ensuring you are a healthy individual, both physically and emotionally, will result in healthier growing hair.

 

One of the key ways to promote positive health from the inside-out is to be more conscious about what you feed your body.  This is not to say you can’t indulge and treat yourself every now and then because we all get a sweet tooth.  However, feeding your body foods that will help increase your energy level and reduce fat is a sure way of focusing on your health.

Recently, I have been introduced to juicing/green smoothies and have found that it is a great way to get in your daily dose of fruits and vegetables.  As juicing has become very popular over the past few years, a quick search on the internet will produce a ton of results to educate an inquiring mind about the benefits of juicing.  Numerous juicing recipes, juicing groups and tips from juicing advocates can all be found.  One of my favorite juicing advocates is Simple Green Smoothies on Instagram.  Depending on your taste buds and what health benefits you look to receive, they have something for everyone.

 

Here are a couple juicing/green smoothie recipes that are said to help promote healthy hair growth.

 

Green Smoothie
“Cucumber is an excellent source of silica. Silica is an important component of hair, and an adequate intake of silica is needed to prevent baldness and stimulate hair growth. The yogurt in this smoothie provides you with plenty of riboflavin which is also needed for healthy hair.”

 

Green Smoothie
“This thirst quenching smoothie is perfect for hot summer days. But it is also great for anyone who is longing for lustrous locks as it contains plenty of B vitamins, vitamin C, zinc, and beta-carotene.”

Ingredients
• ¼ Cucumber
• 4 Large Carrots, ends trimmed
• 1 Large Tomato
“The tomato adds Lycopene, which helps the body fight the production of cancerous cells. The high amount of Vitamin A in both carrots and tomatoes also increases the capacity of this juice to improve the health and possibly even the growth rate of your tresses.”

If you have never done juicing before and are skeptical of how it will taste, I say give it a try because you may be pleasantly surprised!
