Benefits of green tea on hair
- Strengthens your hair.
- Stimulates and improves blood circulation.
- Reduces hair fall.
There are various reasons of hair loss like:
-pollution
-unclean scalp
-stress, anxiety
-prolonged illness like typhoid, jaundice
-pregnancy
-hormonal imbalance
But the two main factors which cause hair loss the most are DHT factor and loss of blood circulation to your hair follicles.
Green tea can be the solution to these two problems.
DHT (DiHydro Testosterone), which is produced by a particular enzyme (called 5Aplpha) in the body along with testosterone. This DHT then attaches itself to the hair follicles thus shrinking the size of the latter. This is sometimes aggravated by genetic reasons as well, which is why hair loss is also depended on your genetic history.
Since green tea is a very powerful anti-oxidant, it reduces DHT and Cholesterol in your body. It is a herbal process of fighting against the 5Alpha, thus minimizing the effects of hair follicle reduction. It works like a marvel in strengthening hair strands.
Green tea contains a certain molecule called catechin in oodles. This is helpful in acting as an anti-biotic and anti-carcinogenic. Moreover, catechin also helps in stimulating hair growth.
