Question: I am not allergic to anything as far as i am aware. However i have had a dandruff problem for about 3 years which no shampoo or cream has been able to cure fully. Could it be something I am eating?I am a vegetarian,

Answers:
Dietaries for Dandruff
All-fruit diet with three meals a day of juicy fruits
Diet plays an important role in the treatment of dandruff. To begin with, the patient should resort to an all-fruit diet for about five days and take three meals a day of juicy fruits.

Avoid citrus fruits, bananas, tinned fruits
Citrus fruits, bananas, dried, stewed, or tinned fruits should not be taken.

Well-balanced diet
After the all-fruit diet, the patient can gradually adopt a well-balanced diet, with emphasis on raw foods, especially fresh fruits and vegetables. Further short periods of an all-fruit diet for three days or so may be necessary at monthly intervals till the skin's condition improves.

Avoid strong tea/coffee, pickles, refined and processed foods
Meats, sugar, white flour, strong tea or coffee, condiments, pickles, refined and processed foods should all be avoided.

Good luck!

Your diet is fine, I say excellent, but I think your scalp needs some moisture and a good leading conditioner.

Dandruff can be due to a lack of essential fats in the body. Not all fats are bad, the essential ones are found in foods such as oily fish, nuts and seeds( sunflower, sesame & pumpkin).You can buy an oil from health food shops, it is called Udo's choice, adding this into you diet can help your problem.
Often dandruff shampoos are too harsh. Try a tea tree one, again from a health food shop.
