How to Prevent Hair Loss

Natural Hair Restoration
Since prevention is usually better than cure, it makes sense to look for ways to prevent hair loss before it occurs. While a large part of hair loss is hereditary, there are several preventative measures you can take to maintain a healthy scalp. For example, avoiding or limiting foods and drinks high in alcohol, caffeine, nicotine and sugar can help greatly in hair loss prevention.

Similarly, avoiding cholesterol-rich foods, which are linked to increased DHT levels, will also help. Salt has also been linked to hair loss so restrict your sodium intake and make sure that you always use salt with Iodine as the latter is a nutrient vital for hair growth. Since hair loss can be caused by inadequate nutrition, a balanced, healthy diet overall can ensure that your body receives the right type and amount of nutrients needed to maintain a healthy scalp.
