Protein and Hair Loss

protein-and-hair-lossEating protein and hair loss prevention

We love a juicy steak as much as the next person, but what you might not know is that eating protein every day can help hair growth. Considering hair is made up out of protein, it would make sense that eating more protein helps with hair growth.

How protein and hair loss are correlated

Protein does not just help with hair growth, it is also an important part of repairing body structures, and guess what – hair falls under that category too. If you do not eat enough protein, you will have brittle hair that feels like it could snap at any minute or you may even experience hair loss.

Amino acids and hair

There are 22 different amino acids. All of these amino acids have their own characteristics. There are eight essential amino acids. When we say protein, we aren’t just talking about “one protein” but thousands of different substances. Because our body cannot make amino acids, we need to get them through our daily diet.

The circle of life

So protein ‘replaces’ (yes we simplified that whole biological process) dead or worn-out cells. This is a big deal because we have a lot of repairing to do every day.

  • Every 10 day or so most of our white blood cells are replaced
  • Every four days our blood platelets and lining of the gastrointestinal tract is replaced
  • Every 24 days our skin cells are replaced

What if I don’t eat meat?

If you want the eight essential amino acids, you want the most complete proteins. You can find these in soy, cheese, milk, eggs, fish, poultry, and meat. So anything that comes from an animal really. Even though you can find protein in beans, peas, and nuts, these do not have all of the essential amino acids.

Because our body never stops working, it is important you never stop feeding it what it needs. That is why protein is an important component of your diet and something you eat every day.
