OW TO IT'S BENEFITS FOR OUR HAIR;
Moringa improves the physical appearance of the hair to a great extent because of its abundance of vitamins, minerals and amino acids which are paramount in the formation of keratin protein. Healthy hair starts from within so health problems or nutritional deficiencies can damage the hair and cause problems like dandruff, split ends and breakage. Thus the need to take nutrition packed food/herbs like Moringa.
Moringa has a high content of vitamin A, thus promoting hair growth and maintenance because deficiency of vitamin A can cause dryness, brittleness and dandruff. Optimum delivery of oxygen and nutrients from the circulatory system to the hair follicle is vital for proper hair growth. Vitamin A plays an important role in the development of healthy cells and tissues in the body and reduction of hair loss.
The Moringa plant also contains zinc which stimulates hair growth by enhancing the immune function. Zinc and silica along with vitamin A prevents drying and clogging of the sebaceous glands. Sebaceous glands are responsible for production of sebum( what keeps your hair shinny and nourished)
Vitamin E contained in moringa is a powerful antioxidant that stimulates blood circulation around the scalp. Proper flow of blood to the scalp helps in the absorption of more nutrients available in the hair follicles.
Hair loss occurs due to the deficiency of vitamin B- especially B6, biotin, inositol and folic acid. Proper blood circulation to the scalp enables hair follicles to grow stronger and healthier. Vitamin C together with vitamin E helps in the improvement of blood circulation in the scalp.
Moringa is a storehouse of all the nutrients required for healthy hair.
Let's crunch some numbers;
Moringa leaves provide you with 4 times the calcium in milk,
3 times the potassium in the average size banana,
4 times the vitamin A in carrot,
25 times the iron in spinach and
7 times the vitamin C of an orange.
