When it comes to white hair, many people will be associated with aging. Growing white hair is not a strange thing. Every older person will grow white hair. When a person reaches a certain age, the various functions of the body will decrease, and the body will also send some aging signals, such as wrinkles, white hair, etc.
However, this phenomenon also exists in life. Some people are only in their twenties and thirties, and are still in their prime, but they have white hair. People call this phenomenon "less white hair".
The reason why humans grow gray hair is actually because the human body has few melanin. For example, most of people's hair is black. This time, because the human scalp contains cells that produce melanin, in this case, a large amount of melanin can be generated, thus making people's hair turn black.
What is "less white hair"?
Be prematurely grey in adolescents means that hair turns white due to melanin deficiency in adolescents. It often starts on the temples. If it is not treated or treated poorly, the gray hair may gradually increase. It is a skin disease.
patients often have no symptoms, and the onset is related to genetics, malnutrition, mental stress, anxiety, hyperthyroidism, diabetes and other diseases, certain drugs side reactions , and bad living habits.
Men often suffer from diseases. There is no effective treatment for congenital adolescents with gray hair. Acquired adolescents with gray hair can more often control the progress of gray hair after treatment with drugs, massage, etc.
Why is the longer the white hair?
. Genetic factors
For example, parents in the family suffer from hereditary hair loss, and their children often have white hair when they are younger, and the number will gradually increase. Grad hair can be widely distributed on the scalp and is usually hereditary, which is called "less white hair".
. Physiological factors
For example, as the skin ages, the hair turns white and gray from the sideburns on both sides, and then gradually spreads the entire hair to become white, or accompanied by nose hair, eyebrows, and beard turns white, which is called elderly white hair.
At this time, the number of melanocytes in the hair follicles will gradually decrease. If the dysfunction cannot synthesize melanin, white hair will appear, and it will become more and more with age. This is a natural law.
. Mental factors
High pressure on study or work will lead to mental tension. When mentally nervous, it will accelerate the aging of the human body, resulting in more and more white hair. Patients can generally listen to some light music to relax, relieve mental stress, and improve the phenomenon of more and more white hair.
. Disease causes gray hair

Growing gray hair may be due to the lack of these 4 nutrients
, minerals
. Normal growth and development of people requires certain minerals. If the minerals in the human body decrease, it is likely to cause white hair in the human body. The reason for this is that hair is a kind of protein . When we use a lighter to burn hair, it will have burnt and hairy smell. This is a manifestation of protein.
When the human body lacks mineral elements, the melanin in the body will be reduced, and in the long run, the human hair will turn pale.
If you want to prevent this situation, then you should add some foods containing a large amount of trace elements to your recipes, such as liver and nuts, etc., which can not only provide minerals to the human body, but also supplement nutrition to a certain extent to prevent malnutrition from occurring in the human body.
. Deficiency of B vitamins
As we all know, beautiful black hair is the function of melanin, and the formation of melanin in the human body cannot be peeled off from vitamins. When the human body lacks B vitamins, it lacks the source of synthetic melanin, and the hair turns white due to insufficient melanin.
foods containing high B vitamins are: brown rice , milk, etc. contain vitamin B1; lean meat and mushrooms contain vitamin B2; chicken contains vitamin B6; beef contains vitamin B5; corn contains vitamin B3; sea fish contains vitamin B12.

. Lack of tyrosine
tyrosine is an essential component of cells and can effectively synthesize melatonin. When the body lacks tyrosine substances, it will cause the phenomenon of teenagers to grow old.
You might as well eat more milk, soy products, meat, bananas, nuts, green vegetables, seafood, whole grain foods, etc. to supplement the body with enough tyrosine and prevent gray hair from growing.
, copper and iron elements
Studies have shown that if copper and iron elements are missing in the body, the hair color will be relatively light, and it will also affect the scalp to produce more melanin. If copper and iron elements are relatively lacking, white hair will grow.
If you want to relieve it, you can eat more foods rich in trace elements, such as crab , nuts, animal viscera, black fungus, kelp, soybeans, etc., which contain more copper and iron elements.
