Solution :  Include proteins such as pulses, paneer , milk , soybean, Almond milk, Soy milk , egg , fish and chicken in your diet .Daily requirement of protein is 1gm/kg/day .

2. Lack of Sleep – Sleep if the time when your body rejuvenates and the process of repair is faster at this time . Lack of sleep slows down the process of healing which leads to hair fall and many other health issues . Even if you are on a nutritious diet, but you don’t give rest to your body then it definitely causes hair fall. Make sure to have at least 7-8 hours of sleep everyday.

Solution : Take 1 cup of warm milk at night , also make sure you take your dinner by 7:00 pm . Put 1 drop of cow’s ghee in both the nostrils , you can also do a light foot massage just before sleeping .
