But the color of hair changes from grey, silver to white. However, these days, we ourselves have accelerated the natural aging process. It is premature aging, and our food choices, lifestyle, emotions, as well as stress level play a major role in it. One should not neglect to care for their hair, and scalp on a regular basis. They are the major contributors to the greying of hair.

Ashwagandha is a powerful herb that can help you to restore the loss of melamine and prevent premature greying of your hair. Ashwagandha contains an amino acid called Tyrosine. This helps in the stimulation of melamine formation in hair follicles. Ashwagandha is a natural way to reduce cortisol levels in the body that helps to prevent follicle damage and hair loss.

Diet plays a critical role in your body. Lack of iron, copper, vitamin B, iodine, and omega-3 are responsible for greying hair. Therefore, some nutrients must be included in your diet. You should have copper-rich food like cashews, potatoes, chickpeas, almonds, and mushrooms, vitamin B-rich food like curd, paneer, bananas, and carrot should also be included in your diet. Also, food rich in omega-3, fatty acids, and zinc has to be included in your daily diet such as walnuts, flaxseeds, spinach, broccoli, and cauliflower.

Several studies have linked low ferritin concentrations (the storage market for iron in our blood) with premature greying, and copper deficiencies are rare, but the nutrient is necessary for melanin production.

While egg whites have a lot of protein, you should eat the whole egg, including the yolk, to reap the benefits of healthy hair. According to research, whole eggs provide Vitamin B-12 (a nutrient that is unavailable from plant foods). According to a 2016 study, people who have premature greying are more likely to have low vitamin B-12 levels. Hard-boiled eggs are a great snack or make them for a nutritious breakfast that’s packed with nutrients. Also, if you are a vegan, it is recommended that you take a vitamin B12 supplement.

These are the top superfoods for reversing the process of greying hair. Along with this, you should avoid stress. The root of most of health problems is stress. Live cheerful and negative emotions and pain.

Well, if you still have grey hair, it is okay to fault your greys and be comfortable with your natural self.
