Nettle Tea (aka Stinging Nettle)

According to the experts at Hair Buddha, there are three main reasons why this hot drink is a favorite among people wishing to grow back more hair. First, this tea can help improve blood circulation, meaning that your roots will "get more supply of nutrients and oxygen."

 

Second, this tea is high in antioxidants, which "help to get rid of hair damaging compounds." That's not all, it also "can inhibit the formation of DHT, the hormone that causes male and female baldness."

 

With this in mind, when it comes to keeping your hair healthy, nettle tea has tons of benefits.

Nikki Walton, the name behind CurlyNikki.com, an uber popular natural haircare and beauty blog, also has a host of good things to say about nettle tea.

 

"It’s championed as the fountain of youth as it’s high in vitamins A, C, K, calcium, potassium, magnesium, iron and chlorophyll," she writes. "The kicker is that it encourages hair growth by improving circulation and reducing shedding and detoxifies your body and skin to help you get your glow on."

With that in mind, next time you're at the grocery store or browsing Amazon, keep an eye out for nettle tea and see if you notice the widely-touted benefits yourself.

 

Another tip: Reviewers say a topical application of nettle oil has been helped improve hair growth as well. So if you want to double up on the nettle benefits, definitely check that out.

 

Of course, chatting with your doctor about any sweeping diet changes is a good idea, so run this holistic hair growth approach by them if you have an questions or concerns.
