Everyday when I wake up I make this drink for myself. Put the following into a blender and blend for approx. 30 seconds:
- 3/4 glass of milk
- 1 raw egg
- 1 spoonful of wheat germ (or 1 tablespoon of wheat germ oil + 2 tablespoons of wheatgerm)
- a piece of any fruit (I use a big piece of an apple) to sweeten it
I also take a hair supplement called HAIR-FORCE which is made in Canada. I make sure I eat atleast one can of tuna fish every day as well.
I have already noticed after a couple weeks that my hair is shinier + my nails are longer and hopefully I will notice faster hair growth! I have damaged dyed hair that I am trying to make healthy while I grow it out.
Oh... one more note... The wheat germ is RAW, not toasted... If you`re like me and have a hard time consuming raw wheat germ (it gets stuck in your teeth) then this is a good way to get that germ into you.
So if you are worried about ecoli or other problems like salmonella you can use powdered or fake eggs like Eggbeaters. They can taste the same. Yes, raw eggs may be a problem but their are options.

I use basically the same recipe except delete the egg and use 1 scoop soy protein(which has no fat and much healthier than raw eggs,IMHO). I also add a some non fat flavored yogurt which makes it thicker. This was a recipe I got from my nutritionist when I became a vegetarian.
