Food near me for healthy hair care

Let me ask you something:
What is the principal thing that pops to mind when you think about hair care?

If it’s something along the lines of a better shampoo, conditioner, or other hair product, then you’re like most people.

That’s not necessarily a bad thing, but we’ve become so conditioned to treat our hairs from the outside in, that we’ve forgotten another crucial factor of healthy, luscious hair.

That factor is proper nutrition.

You see, as much as treating your hair with the right products is a good thing, it’s one side of the coin. With what we feed our body is also significant. After all, we are what we eat, right?

Today, we’ll go over some of the beneficial foods for our hair and what some traditional dishes we have here, in Bulgaria.

The Power of Soured Milk

Though it may not sound appetizing, soured milk is quite tasty and goes well with various dishes or on its own.

In the Balkan region, soured milk has been a staple food for over a century, and it’s commonly made through bacterial fermentation.

What's even better about it is that soured milk is very healthy. It’s filled with lots of protein, healthy fats, and various vitamins.

Research is showing that as little as 100 grams of soured milk per day is enough to bring the shine and volume back to the hair. Additionally, some local experts also recommend making a hair mask with soured milk.

 You just coat your hair with soured milk, wrap a towel around it, let it sit for 20 to 30 minutes.

Lens and Our Traditional Lentil Stew (Chorba)

Lens indeed is a superfood. Not only are they very healthy and beneficial, but they also deliver various minerals and vitamins for the hair such as zinc, iron, and biotin.

What’s even better about the lens is that it can be made in various ways and today, you’ll learn out traditional lentil stew recipe.

The ingredients you’ll need:

•    1 cup lens
•    1 onion head
•    1 medium-sized carrot
•    1 small pepper
•    2 medium tomatoes
•    Some red pepper
•    5 tbsp sunflower seed oil
•    1 tbsp flour
•    5 cloves of garlic

Directions:

1. Prepare the lens by washing it thoroughly in the sink. Then, place it in a pot with water and boil on the stove. Once the water begins to boil, take it off, pour it away and add another 1.5 liters of water to the lens.

2. Meanwhile, wash and chop the carrot, onion, and pepper into tiny pieces. Together with the garlic, add everything in the pot. Add 2 tbsp sunflower seed oil and let the mixture boil. Then, add a tsp of salt and the neatly chopped tomatoes to the mixture.

A side note: If you don’t have fresh tomatoes, you can substitute them for canned ones or organic tomato sauce.

3. Once the stew is done, add the remaining 3 tbsp sunflower seed oil to a pan together with the flour and red pepper. Fry the mixture up for a minute or two and then add it to the stew as you’re mixing it. Took your time for a few minutes more to simmer.

The traditional lentil stew is now done. Toast a piece of bread - it goes great with the stew.
