Flax Seed Oil Supplement

Nature Made Flaxseed Oil Supplements

Flax seed oil is a derivative of the Flax plant seeds. They can be found in western Canada. It’s partly oil with the rest composed of fibre, protein and mucilage. It’s a rich source of essential fatty acids, lignans, vitamins and minerals. Some of the benefits of flaxseed oil supplements include relieving the problems associated with the excess dryness of hair, brittle hair and split ends. Recommended dosage is one capsule in the morning and one in the evening. You can also buy the seeds, crush and eat them or add flax seed oil to a glass of juice.

Omega 3 Fish Oil Supplements

Viva Labs Ultra Strength Omega-3 Fish Oil

Omega 3 fish oil contains DHA, EPA & ALA. The first two are found in fish while the latter is derived from plants. The fatty acids nourish your hair follicles for stronger, shinier hair. Regular intake will lead to a marked difference in overall hair health within a few weeks. This is a treatment from the inside out and the capsules shouldn’t be opened and applied directly to the hair. It won’t do much and probably smells ghastly. You can however eat fatty fish such as anchovy, herring, mackerel, tuna, salmon, sardines, trout, etc.
