As per dermatologists 50 to 100 strands of hair on a daily basis is perfectly normal. Over 30s people are prone to suffer from hair loss problems due to hormonal changes, stress and often an unhealthy diet.

Why Onion Juice Be Effective for Hair Loss And For Greying Hair ?

Onions are rich in sulfur. Sulfur has antibacterial and antifungal properties, killing off germs, parasites and putting an end to fungal infections. It also prevents hair breakage and accelerates regrowth of hair. This is so because sulphur increases the production of collagen which helps the hair to grow. Due to the presence of sulphur in onions, hair thinning and breakage can be reduced.

Basic cause of greying and thinning of hair is oxidative stress due this hydrogen peroxide bulid which decrease in the natural antioxidant, catalase. Applying onion juice to the scalp increases catalase levels on the skins surface, reducing the buildup of hydrogen peroxide and boosting hair health.

According to few research using 4 weeks onion juice, 74% of individuals with alopecia areata experienced significant hair regrowth. Within six weeks of using onion juice, 84% of the individuals were reported to have hair regrowth.
