Unexpected uses of green tea for hair

THÙY DƯƠNG (THEO HEALTHSHOTS) |

In addition to its wonderful health benefits, green tea also has many wonderful benefits for hair.

Promotes hair growth

In a study published in the journal Phytomedicine, green tea contains epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), a powerful antioxidant that promotes hair growth. EGCG works by stimulating hair follicles—the tiny sacs in the skin that help hair grow.

EGCG promotes the anagen phase, which helps hair grow longer and thicker. Green tea can help you have thicker, healthier hair by nourishing hair follicles and providing an environment that promotes hair growth.

Prevent hair loss

According to the International Journal of Multidisciplinary Research and Growth Review, green tea is a useful remedy for people with androgenetic alopecia, a common type of hair loss. This disorder is often associated with high levels of dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a derivative of testosterone. DHT causes hair follicles to shrink, leading to thinner, weaker hair and eventually hair loss.

Make hair stronger

Green tea contains important vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants that nourish hair follicles from within. These nutrients, including vitamins B, C, and amino acids, help strengthen the hair shaft, making hair stronger and less prone to breakage.

Improve scalp health

In a study published in the journal Anti-inflammatory and Anti-allergy Agents in Medical Chemistry, green tea contains anti-inflammatory properties that may help treat certain scalp disorders such as dandruff, which is caused by the fungus Malassezia and can lead to a flaky, itchy scalp. The antioxidants in green tea may help reduce inflammation and soothe an itchy scalp.
