Does vitamin A help grow your hair long?
If one wants to improve their hair health, one thing to improve is what one eats. Generally, eating a full diet that contains protein, fruits, vegetables, grains, and even an appropriate amount of fat is important (several vitamins and minerals require fat in order to be delivered or absorbed by the body). Any deficiency will typically show first in the hair, perhaps even before it is diagnosed. For example, even a mild case of anemia can cause shedding and hair loss.
Reply:My home remedies book says to also see Beta-Carotene,,references to PMS,burns and warts and wrinkles. and my vitamin order catalog says immune system enhancer and antioxdant. and the 10,000 IU soft gels do say for vision, skin and hair. Hair growth needs protein, some shampoos have protein added. the vit A is also sold in combine with vit D.
Reply:Both A and E will help hair grow. You should just take a hair vitamin. It has a lot of other vitamins that you will need to make hair grow faster. It also helps with fingernails and skin.
