Struggling with hair fall in winter?  (continued)

Moringa powder is the superfood you need to nourish your tresses;
​here's how to use it
If you're someone who experiences that dreaded winter hair fall,
​let us introduce you to your newest health obsession: the superfood moringa
Picture
Winter brings its own set of challenges, and among them is hair loss. The cold air, lack of sunlight, and indoor heating can all lead to weakened hair strands, leaving many struggling with increased shedding during the colder months. But did you know that one of the most powerful superfoods — moringa — could be the key to reversing winter hair loss?

What is moringa?
Moringa leaves which are part of the drumstick tree, also known as the Moringa oleifera tree, have been used for centuries for their impressive nutritional profile. Packed with essential vitamins and minerals, moringa powder made from these leaves has gained popularity as a go-to ingredient for boosting hair health. From its anti-inflammatory and antifungal properties to its rich content of vitamins A, C and zinc, this superfood offers a natural way to nourish your hair from the inside out.

How does it help with winter hair fall?
In the winter season, when your hair is prone to dryness and breakage, adding moringa to your routine can help combat these challenges. The high levels of antioxidants present in moringa powder tend to protect the scalp, while the superfood's fatty and amino acids promote healthy hair growth. Moringa powder can be mixed with various ingredients for DIY hair masks that cater to different hair types. Whether you're dealing with oily, dry, or normal hair, moringa offers a solution that helps restore balance and encourage growth during the colder months.
Moringa powder recipes for hair loss
Picture
For oily hair, you can create a simple moringa and apple cider vinegar mask. Mix 2 tbsp of moringa powder with 2 tbsp of apple cider vinegar to form a paste. Apply this mixture to your scalp and hair, focusing on the roots. Leave it on for 15-20 minutes, then rinse it out with lukewarm water. This mask helps balance oil production and fight dandruff, which is especially helpful during the winter months when hair can become greasy.

For dry hair, a moringa and coconut oil treatment can provide deep hydration. Combine 2 tbsp of moringa oil with 2 tbsp of coconut oil, warming it slightly before applying. Massage the oil mixture into your scalp and through your hair, then leave it on for 30-45 minutes as a deep conditioning treatment. Rinse with a mild shampoo to restore moisture.

For curly or coarse hair,
 try a moringa and aloe vera mask to define curls and soften texture. Mix 2 tbsp of moringa powder with 2 tbsp of aloe vera gel to form a smooth paste. Apply it generously to damp hair, focusing on the ends, and leave it on for 20-30 mins. Rinse with a gentle shampoo. This mask helps add moisture and reduce frizz, making it ideal for taming coarse or unruly curls in winter.
​
For normal hair, a simple moringa tea rinse can strengthen and nourish your tresses. Brew 1 tbsp of moringa powder in 1 cup of hot water for 5-10 mins to create a tea. Let it cool to a comfortable temperature, and after shampooing, pour the tea over your hair as a final rinse. This rinse helps nourish the scalp and strengthens the hair without weighing it down, making it perfect for daily use.

For overall hair health, 
drinking a moringa smoothie can provide internal nourishment. Blend 1 teaspoon of moringa powder with 1 cup of coconut water or almond milk, half a banana, and 1 tablespoon of honey. This nutrient-packed smoothie helps support scalp health and promotes hair growth by delivering essential vitamins and minerals to your body, especially beneficial in the winter when hair can become more brittle.

For those struggling with hair loss in winter, incorporating moringa into your diet or hair care regimen may provide the nourishment your hair needs to thrive despite the season. So, next time you feel the chill of winter taking a toll on your hair, turn to moringa powder as your ultimate superfood solution for a healthier scalp and stronger tresses.
