Has your hair grown longer based on your food choices?

Much better since I have ensured my iron intake is kept up and eating more portions of unprocessed foods.

A few years ago, I noticed that eating red meat on a regular basis really helped my growth in a noticeable way. Obviously, this isn't the healthiest option and I'm hoping protein shakes and eggs are a suitable replacement.

For me - and I have been vegan (6 years), vegetarian (11 years) and meat-eating (31 years) - eating oily fish makes the biggest difference in terms of speed and quality of hair growth. Eating a lot of meat makes my hair roots strong but my sebum smells nasty. Eating a diet without meat, egg and fish really affected my energy and health negatively. I keep having periods of being vegan or vegetarian and it ends with me feeling awful or actually becoming ill and so I revert to being a carnivore.

So, marine protein and essential fatty acids from fish is my hair superfood.
