(Newswire.net — November 11, 2018) — We live in a world where image is of the utmost importance so everything from a weave to a perm is a must have to so many people. Unfortunately, so much technology and money has been thrown at attaining just the right look to the point of neglecting the rules of nature when it comes to hair care. While being attractive is something everyone desires, it’s more imperative to be healthy first so back away from the beauty and cosmetic aisle just a moment and consider some other more basic things your hair may need.
“Sebum, the natural oil produced by your body, forms an outer layer on your skin and hair known as the acid mantle, which holds in moisture and protects against foreign contaminants like bacteria and dust mites,” explains True Moringa. “Both the products we use on our hair and bodies and the foods we eat can disrupt our natural internal and external pH balance. The American diet, high in sugar and carbs tends to overload the digestive system with acids, bringing down our pH balance, causing discomfort, and most shampoos and cleansers are highly alkaline, overcompensating to treat oily skin or hair, but leaving it stripped and dull instead.”
“It is an imbalance of acidity and alkalinity that allows unhealthy organisms to flourish, damages tissues and organs and compromises the immune system,” explains Dr. Axe. “Normally, the kidneys maintain our electrolyte levels, those of calcium, magnesium, potassium and sodium. When we are exposed to acidic substances, these electrolytes are used to combat acidity. High degrees of acidity force our bodies to rob minerals from the bones, cells, organs and tissues.”
Bad eating habits are counterintuitive to healthy hair. Split ends, breakage, thinning and balding are all caused by an internal issue which poor diet and excessive acidity contributes to greatly. While the ancient Egyptian beauty treatment of crocodile fat and hippo poop has been prescribed to work wonders but it’s not so easy to come by as before so the best bet is to feed your body the right ratio of acid/alkaline creating foods to ensure optimal pH balance to promote healthy and luxurious locks of hair.
