Diet and Lifestyle for Naturally Healthy Hair and Skin

Healthy hair and skin begin inside your body, not just outside.

Ayurveda states that Rasa (nutritional essence) and Asthi Dhatu (bone tissue) are directly responsible for strong hair and glowing skin.

Modern science agrees that deficiencies in protein, vitamins, and minerals lead to hair fall, dull skin, and slow healing.

Diet for Hair and Skin Health

1. Protein: Eggs, lentils, yoghurt, and sprouts for hair shaft strength.
2. Iron and Zinc: Spinach, pumpkin seeds, and beetroot for follicle and skin repair.
3. Omega-3 Fatty Acids: Walnuts, flaxseeds, and chia seeds for scalp and skin hydration.
4. Antioxidants: Amla, citrus fruits, and berries to prevent premature ageing and oxidative stress.
5. Hydration: Drink 2–3 litres of water daily; add coconut water or herbal teas for extra benefits.

Lifestyle Tips for Better Hair and Skin

1. Maintain consistent sleep cycles for natural tissue repair.
2. Reduce stress with yoga, meditation, and breathing exercises.
3. Avoid junk and overly processed foods that increase toxins (Ama) in the body.
4. Include seasonal fruits and vegetables to align with natural cycles.

Home Remedies for Extra Care

1. Apply aloe vera gel to hydrate scalp and skin.
2. Use fenugreek and hibiscus hair masks weekly for root nourishment.
3. Prepare oatmeal and honey scrubs for gentle skin exfoliation.
4. Oil your scalp twice a week with Kshupa Ayurvedic Hair Oil for deep rejuvenation.
