I am struggling with severe hairfall and other health issues like back and knee pain. I was high on multi-vitamins but I never really focused on my diet. Before reading your post, I was scrolling through Pinterest, looking for healthy recipes for better hair and overall health. I was just thinking that it's time to make some lifestyle changes while enjoying my morning tea. Then I read this post and it uplifted my mood and motivated me.
We also don't spend a lot on dine-outs or takeaways and mostly cook at home. But Paksitani cuisine is not healthy. I was just planning to gather healthy and delicious recipes from different cuisines and incorporate in my daily food intake.
Having a diet plan might save some bucks at the end of the month. I really like this 50/30/20 rule. Usually, I run on extremes, save 80% three months in a row and then spend everything in a day. 🤪
P.S. Are you Indonesian?
I used to have severe hair fall too but it changed when I started having lesser stress and working out (gym or swimming). I also take better care of my hair with hair care and vitamin E. As much as I consumed multivitamins, they only work when I eat healthily and have healthier lifestyle.
Your comment got me thinking about food and culture. The thing is, there are cultures that its people live healthier and somehow "thinner" like there's something called the Chinese paradox where it was assumed eating rice won't impact the weight but in recent years, it has shifted. I saw some Pakistani food and I think that some of them certainly oily much like Indian food to me. Though I believe there are healthy ways to cook your local food as well with ingredient replacements.
😂 I can't do that, I hate living miserably and I promised myself to never do anything extreme. And yes, I am indonesian, somehow, not by choice :D if I were to choose, I would want to be something else.
How you consume Vitamin E? Orally or Topically? I am also thinking to incorporate it in my haircare. I'm more focused on oral consumption of natural sources of all necessary vitmains. Because like you said, only then any synthetic vitamins or topical treatment show results.
Pakistani and Indian Food are somewhat similar. Too much oil and over cooking everything. Trust me our food tastes divine but at the expense of health.😂
Coming to my poor budget management... I don't live miserably. It's just that there are days I don't feel like spendig anything and then there are days I have to buy everything to reward myself for the no-buying days. Sounds absurd? 😂
Good to find an Indonesian Hiver and by the way I don't think anyone ever has a choice to choose his nationality. It's our parents who decide. 😜
