Use of Aloe Vera Gel
Aloe Vera gel is a natural moisturizer that can be used to treat dandruff, psoriasis, and eczema. It contains vitamins and minerals which help to nourish the scalp and strengthen hair follicles. You can use aloe vera gel as a rinse after shampooing your hair or you can apply it directly to the scalp in order to keep your roots healthy. You may need to use aloe vera gel more frequently if you have severe hair thinning or if you have been using other medicines or chemicals on your head for an extended period of time.
Getting Enough Sleep, Eating Healthier Food, and Drinking Plenty of Water
- Get enough sleep
- Eat healthier food
- Drink plenty of water
How much should you get? The American Academy of Sleep Medicine recommends between seven and nine hours of sleep a night for adults. But that doesn’t mean sleeping in until noon is the right answer either! A consistent bedtime every night will help you fall asleep faster, stay asleep longer and wake up feeling more refreshed—all important factors when it comes to looking good (and feeling good).
If you’re still not sure what constitutes healthy eating, look no further than the USDA’s MyPlate guide. It divides your plate into five sections: fruits and vegetables (half), whole grains (four slices), lean protein (two slices), low-fat dairy products (one cup), and heart-healthy fats such as salmon or avocado oil (two tablespoons). When it comes to drinking water, aim for eight cups daily—or simply give yourself a big glass with lunch and dinner—to keep your body hydrated so it can function at its best.
