There are large patches of dandruff

I believe that many people have had the trouble of dandruff, but for some people, the dandruff has gradually disappeared as they get older, while some people are still suffering from dandruff. Dandruff is very difficult to deal with when it grows in large patches. Those shampoos that claim to treat dandruff are actually not very effective and are mostly exaggerated in advertisements. However, the advertisements do not tell us how to deal with large patches of dandruff.

Dietary supplements for excessive dandruff

(1) Pay attention to the intake of alkaline foods: Scientists have found that excessive dandruff is related to body fatigue. The cause of fatigue is that some acidic components are retained in the body during metabolism, such as lactic acid, uric acid, phosphoric acid, etc., which changes the pH value of the blood and causes fatigue of the body. At the same time, the nutrition of the head skin is also affected. Eating more alkaline foods can allow the alkaline components (such as calcium, magnesium, zinc, etc.) to neutralize excess acidic substances in the body and achieve a balance between acid and base. This is not only beneficial to the nutrition of the head skin, but also reduces scalp shedding. Physiological alkaline foods include fruits, vegetables, honey, etc., and you should pay attention to eating more of them.

(2) Eat more foods rich in vitamin B2 and vitamin B6: Vitamin B2 has the effect of treating seborrheic dermatitis; Vitamin B6 plays an important role in the normal metabolism of proteins and lipids. Foods rich in vitamin B2 include animal liver, kidney, heart, egg yolk, milk, eel, soybeans, and vegetables such as day lily and alfalfa. In addition to the foods mentioned above, other foods rich in vitamin B6 include wheat germ, yeast, cereals, etc.

(3) Eat less spicy and irritating foods: When dandruff is produced more, it will be accompanied by itchy scalp. Spicy and irritating foods will aggravate the itchy scalp. Therefore, you should eat less or no chili peppers, mustard, raw onions, raw garlic, wine and alcoholic beverages.

(4) Eat less high-fat foods: People with oily dandruff should pay special attention to this. Because excessive fat intake will cause the sebaceous glands to secrete too much sebum, thereby accelerating the production of dandruff.
