hair

In traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), the health of the liver and kidneys is closely related to the condition of one’s hair. The liver governs blood storage, while the kidneys store essence; both collaborate to nourish the hair. Consequently, poor liver and kidney function may lead to issues like dryness, split ends, and hair loss. By adjusting liver and kidney health, not only can their functions be enhanced, but hair condition can also be improved. Here, we will discuss three recipes provided by an experienced TCM doctor on how to nourish the liver and kidneys and care for the hair.
