Healthy lashes can begin by simply incorporating for foods or minerals into your diet. Here is a breakdown on Vitamin E!

What Exactly Is Vitamin E?

Vitamin E is the ultimate vitamin when it comes to skin and hair.  According to the National Institutes of Health, Vitamin E "acts as an antioxidant, helping to protect cells from the damage caused by free radicals." This pretty much means that it is able to repair tissue and encourage hair growth. Vitamin E is recommended typically to be consumed in the foods we eat, though there are supplements. You should always consult your doctor the right recommended amount of this vitamin you should take.

What Foods Contain Vitamin E?

According to NIH, some foods that Vitamin E occur naturally in are:

• Vegetable oils like wheat germ, sunflower, and safflower oils are among the best sources of vitamin E. Corn and soybean oils also provide some vitamin E.
• Nuts (such as peanuts, hazelnuts, and, especially, almonds) and seeds (like sunflower seeds) are also among the best sources of vitamin E.
• Green vegetables, such as spinach and broccoli, provide some vitamin E.
• Food companies add vitamin E to some breakfast cereals, fruit juices, margarines and spreads, and other foods. To find out which ones have vitamin E, check the product labels.
