The foods that we consume daily will affect how your hair grows and the overall health of your hair. The blood vessels that surround your hair follicles carry the nourishment your hair needs to grow. This is a major reason why your diet is so essential to the health of your hair.

Eating adequate protein is important for hair growth because hair follicles are mostly made of protein. Also fats, vitamins, and minerals are important.

Combined administration of capsaicin and isoflavone might increase IGF-I production in hair follicles in the skin, thereby promoting hair growth. Such effects of capsaicin and isoflavone might be mediated by sensory neuron activation in the skin. ‘’Department of Translational Medical Science Research, Nagoya City University, Graduate School of Medical Sciences, Kawasumi 1, Mizuho-cho, Mizuho-ku, Nagoya 467-8601, Japan.’’
