Composition of Eggs and Your Hair

Instead of listing constituents of eggs without you in mind, we will relate the benefits of these constituents to your hair.

Phospholipids (Lecithin) in Eggs:
Eggs are the richest source of lecithin. It is an essential part of the cell membranes. Involved in the cells of hair follicles, phospholipids repair damaged cell membranes and maintain their integrity helping the hair to grow normally, and keep their moisture content. Eggs are excellent moisturizing agent for hair. Lecithin is a good source of choline.

Vitamin A in Eggs:
Eggs are one of the richest sources of vitamin A. Vitamin A is required for the development and maintenance of the epithelial cells of the skin. Deficiency of vitamin A leads to dry scalp and hair.
With other constituents in eggs, vitamin A increases oil production by the scalp. For best results, vitamin A is taken with vitamins B,C,E, Choline, essential fatty acids, Ca, P and Zinc. Eggs contain generous amounts of these agents.

Fat in Eggs:
More than 1/4 of egg yolk is fat, about 1/3 of this fat is lecithin mentioned before. About %75 of fatty acids in egg yolk fat are unsaturated (essential) fatty acids. % 47 of fatty acids is Oleic acid (of Olives) which is a good moisturizer, as well as it is needed for stronger and thicker hair.

Protein in Eggs:
The best dermatologists will advice you to increase protein intake to fight hair loss. Eggs are a natural source of protein and can be ingested or used externally to promote hair growth. It can also repair the damaged hairs from chemical applications or heat.

Antioxidants in Eggs:

Egg yolk contains the yellow or orange carotenoids (xanthophylls) which gives its color, namely they are lutein and zeaxanthin. Antioxidants fight the free radical chain reactions which causes many harms to hair, including dryness.


Vitamins in Eggs:

Eggs are a rich source of vitamins, a special attention should be paid to eggs white content of vitamin B5 which controls excessive secretion of oil by the skin. High Methionine content should also be stressed because it is necessary for formation of coenzyme A which acts in the same direction.
