During the recent boom of healthy food, many have changed their attitude towards brown rice. It has become popular, because it is rich in vitamins and minerals, for example selenium, which is a constituent of a hair and is essential for the synthesis of the pigment melanin. In other words, it is very helpful in preserving glossy black ebony hair.

It is very time consuming to boil brown rice, so why not try enriched rice? Adding a little of it into white rice provides you with all the necessary elements contained in brown rice. Like this, we can be healthy without changing our diet or spending a lot of time in the kitchen.

Another interesting topic is the so-called circular loss of hair. It is a loss of hair that starts from a balding spot of the size of a one-yen coin on the top of the head, and spreads around sometimes causing total baldness, and even the loss of the body hair. The process behind the phenomenon is mainly psychological stress. Sympathetic nerves are strained, that causes blood vessels in the root of the hair to contract and makes it easier for hairs to fall out. It is obvious, however, that the process is reversible if only the blood circulation and nutrition supply are improved, and stress is relieved.

Once you relax, you must be careful not to be exposed to stress again, and certain foods can help you in preventing it. You must be very attentive, however, not to eat any over-stimulating products, as it may lead to inflammation and deterioration of blood circulation.
