Eating for Health Hair and Skin
When it comes to healthy, shiny hair and glowing
skin, what you eat and drink has more influence
than you might expect. Crazy diets, too little
protein and iron, a decrease in calories and
weight loss, in general, can lead to hair loss.
Furthermore, women who have too little fat in
their diet often have dry skin and hair.
"Eat a diet that includes a balance of
carbohydrates, proteins and fats along with a
multivitamin," advises Randi Cardonick,
MS, registered dietitian with Penn Health for
Women. Another secret? Drink six to eight glasses
of water every day to keep your skin healthy.
