Never have truer words been spoken. The fact is that the hair you see is already dead. The hair follicles are where the hair is formed and that is what must be kept healthy in order to have beautiful hair. Green Smoothies offer all of the nutrition the hair follicles need to produce the very best hair of your life!
Hair is mostly protein just like your nails, so all those green leafy vegetables that we add to our Green Smoothies, have many jobs to do in our bodies. That is why we add as many as we can to every Green Smoothie and try to increase the amounts of them that we add, as much as possible.
Don’t get me wrong, the hair you were born with is the hair you will always have: curly, straight, fine, thick, thin, wiry or coarse. The things that you can change such as color or curl are done with chemicals. You may like the way processed hair looks but it is very damaging to the hair follicles that we depend on to produce our hair. It is best to avoid chemical processing if at all possible.
The Green Smoothie way is to give the hair follicles the very best nutrition, so that they can produce the very best hair of your life!
If you have noticed that the quality of your hair has declined, it is definitely due to improper nutrition. Fad diets, junk food or food deprivation, all have a bearing on the condition of your hair. Hair that has been nourished by the nutrients and protein in Green Smoothies will be stronger, shinier and more resistant to breakage. Overall, that is a pretty great deal!
