Supreme Vital
Hair
Formulated to Nourish Hair and Scalp
Nutrition,
exercise and physical health all play major roles in maintaining healthy,
shiny hair. Just as poor diet, stress, illness, or lack of exercise affects
your skin and internal organs, so will they affect your hair.
Hair is composed
mainly of protein. A deficiency of protein in the diet can cause a temporary
change in the look and texture of hair. When the body again receives adequate
protein, the hair will return to its normal color and texture.
Protein consists
of a large combination of amino acids. Approximately 12% of hair consists
of the amino acid, Cysteine, which helps build hair protein. Cysteine
also contains sulfur, a nonmetallic element that occurs widely in nature.
Sulfur is present in every cell of plants and animals and is often called
"Nature's Beauty Mineral" because it keeps skin and hair soft
and smooth. Sulfur is prevalent in keratin, a tough protein substance
necessary for the health and maintenance of hair. A lack of sulfur can
cause split ends and dull hair.
Sulfur works
with Thiamine, Pantothenic Acid and Biotin, which are needed for metabolism
and strong nerve health. It also helps with tissue respiration and works
with the liver to secrete bile. Reducing toxic substances in the body
improves the health of the entire body, and therefore, is reflected in
the hair.
In addition
to containing sulfur, Cysteine may also help promote hair growth. While
no major studies have been conducted to test the affect of Cysteine on
human hair growth, wool producers have found that enriching their sheep's'
normal diet with one gram of L-Cysteine daily increases wool production
by 14%. L-Cysteine is the natural form of the amino acid Cysteine.
The B-vitamins
also influence hair growth, especially Biotin and Inositol. Pantothenic
Acid, Folic Acid and Para Amniobenzoic Acid (PABA) help maintain or restore
hair's natural color.
Vitamins
A and E work together to promote healthy hair. A deficiency or excess
amount of Vitamin A may cause hair to become dull, dry, and eventually
fall out.
A well-balanced
diet is important to healthy hair, but it cannot completely stop hereditary
traits such as graying or balding. Good hygiene is important to healthy
hair. It should be brushed properly and washed with a mild, protein-enriched
shampoo. Hair should also be protected from the elements, such as sun
or wind, which can cause dry hair and split ends.
