How to Increase Chest Hair Growth
Hair grows at different rates on people mostly due to their genes. Some men may have chest hair through puberty while others do not grow hair until their 20s. There is no miracle trick or product you can use that will give you a chest full of hair overnight. There are, however, some things you can do to encourage hair growth. Many of the suggestions also work for other parts of the body. Genetics will always limit the amount of hair you can grow, the thickness and color. Does this Spark an idea?

Eat right or take vitamin supplements. Eat a high-protein diet since hair is mostly made up of proteins. Meat, nuts, fish and soy are all good sources of protein; a healthy diet should be 30 percent protein. Consume 20 milligrams of beta-carotene. This vitamin can be found in onions, carrots, squash and sweet potatoes. Vitamin E also is suggested to encourage hair growth. Testosterone and human growth hormone (HGH) are offered in supplements that increase hair growth and muscle growth. These two supplements, however, can have adverse effects.
