Hair Fall Problems? Ayurveda To the Rescue

Dietary Modifications

In most cases, the lifestyle we lead is a major cause of hair fall. Stress, anxiety, and inadequate sleep are a few examples. Indulging in excessive alcohol, smoking, caffeine and oily foods can further aggravate it. Instead, Ayurveda suggests consuming foods that promote and stimulate hair growth such as sesame seeds, carrot, spinach, green veggies, fruits rich in Vitamin C, Vitamin B-complex, sulphur and zinc.

Yoga & Meditation

Yoga and meditation calms the mind and relieves you of stress and anxiety. Practicing deep breathing helps keep your anxiety in check and keeps your mind balanced. Inverted asanas like Sirsasana, Adho Mukha Vrksasana, and Setu Bandha Sarvangasana promote hair growth as they help stimulate blood flow to the head and hair roots.

Ayurvedic Herbs & Medicated Oil Massages

Ayurveda has been known for its herbs and their medicinal properties.
