Too much guac, told myself not to eat ALL… but of course I did!

* Lift biceps & triceps
* Spent an hour exercising feet,  ankles, calves in a mini-pool

WATER:
(2) × (32) = 64 oz (+)

Vegan Hair Loss: The 5 Best Nutrients for Plant-Based Eaters to Prevent Hair Loss

VEGAN HAIR GROWTH DIET

1. IODINE:  Eat a half teaspoon of iodized salt per day

2. VITAMIN D:  30 minutes in direct sunlight /day

3. PROTEIN: Protein deficiency is quite rare among vegans. Vegans can generally get enough protein as long as they are eating enough calories overall.

4. OMEGA 3:  The best [oilfree] vegan sources are:

Walnuts

Ground flax seeds

Chia seeds

Hemp hearts

5. IRON:  The best vegan food sources of iron include:

Blackstrap molasses

Fortified breakfast cereals (check label to see which are vegan)

Tempeh

White beans

Swiss chard

Lentils

Spinach

Tofu

Kidney beans

Canned tomatoes

Baked potato

Foods high in vitamin C help the body absorb more iron, so try eating lentils with red bell peppers, putting blackstrap molasses in a fruit smoothie, having tofu with a side of broccoli, or eating an orange with your fortified breakfast cereal.
