Nutrition and hair loss 'may be linked'
Published: 3rd of September 2010
People concerned about hair loss may like to increase their consumption of tomatoes - as well as taking other supplements to manage the problem such as marine protein and silica in Viviscal - as the fruit contains lycopene that reduces the risk of male pattern baldness.According to Helium, tomatoes - which also contain B7, a vitamin known to prevent thinning of the locks - become even more effective at safeguarding against hair loss when they are cooked.
However, there are other food stuffs that can be consumed to help the situation, such as red and orange fruit and vegetables, which are good sources of vitamin A, while vitamin C is also needed regularly to prevent breakage and splitting.
This also improves circulation of blood in the scalp, "which is essential for strong, healthy hair".
Another plant that may be of use is aloe vera, recently recommended by Hellomagazine.com, which noted that it can revitalise tresses as it adds shine, strength and flexibility.
