Nutrition for dry dull skin & hair
I am a vegetarian who suffer from dull dry skin and hair .
I try to include fruits and vegetables regularly ( which are not heavy on the pocket ). I have been reading everywhere about the benefits of fatty foods. Could you please suggest some good omega 3 supplement . I do take them naturally but I haven't seen any difference . I don't have a thyroid issue and low haemoglobin.

Hi, thank you for your enquiry.
The reason for dull skin and hair can be ageing, oxidative stress, B vitamins deficiency, protein deficiency. Following a healthy diet which has optimal amounts of first class proteins, reduced carbohydrates & healthy fats along with a structured exercise program that is balanced with weight training and cardio will surely help.
