Tired of ‘home remedies for hair fall’? Nutritionist Kiran Kukreja shares easy moringa biotin laddu recipe

Nutritionist Kiran Kukreja offers a recipe for moringa biotin laddus, combining ingredients like pumpkin and sunflower seeds for hair health.

Biotin may play an important role in keeping hair healthy by increasing the rate of follicle growth and keratin production, which affects hair, skin, and nails. It supports hair growth in people whose hair thinning or loss occurs due to a biotin deficiency. While biotin supplements can boost hair growth, you can also try consuming it through whole foods and nuts.

1 tbsp ghee

Method

1. Add the pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, black sesame seeds, flax seeds, and walnuts to a pan.
