However, some individuals see their first\u00a0gray hairs well before middle age\u2014in their 20s and 30s. Some people even find gray hairs in high school. The question is:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pubmed\/27127369\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">What can research tell us?<\/a>\u00a0Are there any dietary factors that can lead to gray hair?<\/p>\n<p>Premature gray hair can be caused by stress and family genetics. However, nutritional deficiencies could also be a possible cause. Of course, the good news is that it\u2019s completely avoidable.<\/p>\n<h2>The Relationship Between Gray Hair, Oxidative Stress and Melanin Production<\/h2>\n<p>Melanin gives skin, hair, eyes and other organs their color. It is also a known\u00a0antioxidant\u00a0and has anti-inflammatory, radioprotective, and immunomodulatory qualities. It helps lower blood sugar levels and protects the liver and digestive system.<\/p>\n<p>Melanin production slows down and results in gray, silver or white hair. This happens over many decades and in the later years of life.<\/p>\n<p>High levels of reactive oxygen and hydroxyl radicals oxidative stress can cause premature graying. This adversely affects melanin-producing melanocytes. Simply put,\u00a0premature gray hair is essentially evidence of an accelerated aging process.<\/p>\n<p>The amino acids methionine and tyrosine are the main ingredients in melanin, as well as vitamins B12, zinc, iron, copper and zinc. Impaired melanin production can be caused by a lack of any one of these key nutrients.<\/p>\n<h2>Premature gray hair can also be caused by other factors<\/h2>\n<p>A study of Indian citizens aged 25 or younger revealed a link between premature gray hair, low levels vitamin B12, HDL and low-levels of this vitamin.\u201cgood\u201d) cholesterol, and serum ferritin. An analysis of 20-year-olds with premature gray hair revealed low levels of iron and copper in a group of younger people.<\/p>\n<p>Researchers also discovered certain factors that can increase the likelihood of premature gray hair. Smoking doubles the likelihood of developing premature gray hair. In addition, other factors that accelerate the graying process include family health history, metabolic disorders, chronic exposure to environmental toxins, and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.naturalhealth365.com\/stress-emotional-trauma-1952.html\">emotional trauma<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Research shows that premature graying hair can be a sign of impending heart disease, osteoporosis or other autoimmune disorders. Thyroid issues, skin pigmentation disorders, anemia, hypogonadism, adrenal insufficiency, Addison\u2019s disease, and Werner syndrome have all been linked with the early onset of gray hair.<\/p>\n<h2>Premature gray hair has a higher chance of heart disease and osteoporosis.<\/h2>\n<p>A study published in the journal\u00a0Internal Medicine\u00a0evaluated over 200 patients with premature gray hair but no history of cardiovascular disease. Premature gray hair was found to be associated with increased\u00a0Carotid Intima-Media Thickness (CIMT), one of the markers of a higher risk of heart disease.<\/p>\n<p>Osteoporosis can be preceded by oxidative stress. Research has also shown that PPIs (ahref=&#8221;) can help prevent osteoporosis.https:\/\/www.naturalhealth365.com\/heartburn-gerd-2041.html&#8221;>proton-pump Inhibitors<\/a>This can also cause melanin to be less active and increase the risk of developing heart disease.<\/p>\n<p>The best way to prevent premature gray hair is to ensure a healthy diet. You should ensure that you consume adequate amounts of B12 and iron as well as copper, zinc, and clean (nontoxic) protein.<\/p>\n<p>If you have serious concerns, check with a trusted, health care provider\u2014who appreciates the value of good nutrition. Avoid alcohol, smoking, and any other forms of stress (emotional or mental).<\/p>\n<p><em>Republished from\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.naturalhealth365.com\/\">NaturalHealth365<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">\u25c7<\/span><span class=\"s2\"> Refer to<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wellnessresources.com\/health\/articles\/premature_gray_hair_check_your_nutrition\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">WellnessResources.com<\/a><br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pubmed\/27127369\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">NIH.gov<\/a><br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pubmed\/21979243\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">NIH.gov<\/a><br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pubmed\/23291671\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">NIH.gov<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Most people expect to receive what they have earned. gray hair In their later years.
