By depriving yourself of certain nutrients in the morning, your scalp could end up paying the price (via Elle Canada). Skipping breakfast means that certain vitamins, such as vitamin B and zinc, as well as the proteins supplied by a healthy breakfast, are not consumed. Because of this, your hair may begin to grow weak and begin falling out.
Protein, in particular, is a key component for good hair health, and low-protein diets are connected to hair loss (via Good Food). A lack of protein in the diet can lead to the hair growing brittle and slowly beginning to fall out. Eggs are a staple of most breakfasts, and a great source of a protein known as keratin. According to Healthline, just one cooked egg can provide up to 33% of the daily value of keratin in your diet. Eggs are also a great source of selenium, riboflavin, and vitamins such as B12 and A, all of which are great ways to get your day started right.
