Kako koristiti češnjak za rast kose

Češnjak je dobar i za više od ukrasa. Također se može koristiti za poboljšanje rasta kose. U vremenu u kojem ljudi troše sve više novca na salonske tretmane i ekstenzije, ovaj je prirodni sastojak postao izrazito podcijenjena pomoć za rast kose. Češnjak kao sastojak za njegu kose može potencirati ne samo poticanje rasta kose već i poticanje njezina ponovnog rasta (1), (2). Pročitajte kako biste razumjeli kako češnjak može pomoći rastu kose i različite načine njegove upotrebe.

Prednosti češnjaka za rast kose

• Češnjak ima visok sadržaj minerala poput kalcija, cinka i sumpora (3). Te hranjive tvari promiču zdravu kosu.

• Antimikrobno je (4). Pomaže u ubijanju klica i bakterija koje mogu prouzročiti oštećenje vlasišta i inhibirati rast kose.

• Češnjak također sadrži selen (3). Pomaže u poticanju cirkulacije krvi za maksimalnu prehranu vlasišta i kose.

• Pomaže u pročišćavanju folikula dlake, jača ih i sprječava začepljenje, suzbijanje gubitka kose.

• Inhibira rast Malassezije i pomaže u liječenju peruti (5), (6).

• Sirovi češnjak izuzetno je obogaćen vitaminom C (3). Oksidativni stres može uzrokovati gubitak kose (7). Vitamin C u češnjaku štiti kosu od slobodnih radikala i sprječava njezino stanjivanje i gubitak.
