Posted By: Unregistered Guest Subject: Secondhand Smokers Can Harm Your Hair! Date Posted: January 06 2002 at 4:44pm A recent published study at Arizone State University in Mesa confirmed that non-smoking people that live with a smoker have a high risk of adopting their poor dietary habits. As a result the study found that spouses and people who live with smokers tend to consume more hair harming products and foods high in fat along with cheese and artificial sweeteners. The study also found that living with a smoker puts you at higher risk for other poor dietary habits including eating less fiber and skimping on "hair helpers" like folate and Vitamin A. If you live with a smoker pay attention to your nutrition and make it a point to take Vitamin B, A and avoid excessive fat, artifical sugars and other products proven to weaken hair. Replies:
