Growing long, healthy hair is all about keeping the hair healthy--both inside and out. What better way to achieve this than taking vitamins for hair growth? Vitamins not only improve your overall health, they also have the ability tom maximize your growth potential and grow your hair long, thick, and healthy.
Instructions
1. Start out by taking a daily multivitamin that contains 100% of daily nutrients needed. Overall health is the key to hair growth. If your body is healthy, your hair will be healthy too! Also be sure you are getting enough calcium. Look on the back of your multivitamin and be sure it contains calcium and magnesium (magnesium is needed to help the body absorb calcium).
2. Next, you need to choose a quality hair vitamin. Be sure it contains MSM-methylsulfonylmethane (at least 500mg) , silica (at least 500mg), and biotin which are the three main nutrients needed for hair growth with vitamins. I would recommend GNC Ultra Nourishair. You can add more MSM, silica, and biotin to your diet if you'd like:
MSM- There is no recommended amount of MSM. I would recommend taking up to 1000mg extra of MSM daily.
Biotin- You may take up to 3600mcg of biotin daily. However, I would only recommend taking 2400mcg total of biotin daily.
Silica- Be sure to take at least 500mg of silica daily.
3. Flaxseed oil and protein are two other important components when using vitamins for hair growth. Flaxseed oil is rich in omega 3 and 6 fatty acids, which are essential for hair growth. Most hair vitamins and multivitamins do not contain flaxseed oil, so you need to purchase it separately. I recommend at least 500mg of flaxseed oil daily. You also need to be sure you are getting enough protein in your daily diet, at least 22gr. A protein shake is a great way to ensure your daily dose of protein.
4. Take these vitamins daily and be persistent. You won't see results for at least 3-6 weeks. You will be surprised at how much your hair grows. Not only that, but you will see a great change in the health of your body. Your hair and nails will also reap the benefits.
