6 – Dry, flaky scalp
A dry and flaky scalp is most commonly called dandruff. Dandruff is strictly a cosmetic issue that is rather harmless. Dandruff occurs when the hair root lacks sufficient moisture in the form of sebum. Sebum is what gives the hair its “shine.” In terms of diet, a shortage of omega-3 fatty acids is a causal factor.
RDI for omega-3:
- 500 mg (EPA plus DHA)
Sources of omega-3:
Oily fish (e.g., herring, salmon, sardines, trout, and oysters), chia seeds, Brussels sprouts, algal oil, hemp seed, and walnuts.
