Our diet plays a key role in determining the health of our hair. If you are experiencing premature greying of hair, excessive hair fall due to weakening of hair roots or a receding hairline, then there is a big chance that your diet lacks biotin, magnesium, copper and zinc. Consuming foods rich in these essential nutrients can improve your hair health. In a recent Instagram video, nutritionist Rachna Mohan shared a simple and delicious Indian recipe for boosting hair health. This is a yummy ragi dosa paired with a chana-coconut chutney.

The four main ingredients used in this dosa recipe that are excellent for hair health are ragi (used in the dosa) and chickpeas, yogurt and coconut (used in the chutney).

Here Is How These 4 Foods Boost Hair Health:

1. Ragi

Packed with essential nutrients like iron, calcium, and amino acids, ragi helps improve blood circulation to the scalp, promoting hair growth and reducing hair fall.

2. Chickpeas

High in protein and zinc, chickpeas nourish hair follicles and support stronger, healthier hair.
