scientific case studies where patients with celiac disease had reversal of their grey hair after eating a gluten-free diet.” Just a little “food for thought,” continued Dr. Madhere.
White bread/Bromide
Not to our surprise, bread makes the cut. “Bromide in white bread (and other foods) can interfere with thyroid hormones. Both insufficient and excess levels of thyroid hormones can result in altered hair structure and function,” said Dr. Madhere.
Salt
While critical for maintaining a normal fluid balance, too much of a good thing can have adverse effects on hair. When it comes to MSG (monosodium glutamate), it is believed to impact the body’s normal metabolism – graying hair included
Protein
Believe it or not, overeating animal protein such as chicken, red meat (steak) or fish can result in premature graying. Because the body has a tougher time digesting certain animal proteins, they are directly converted into uric acid. That excess then leads to an influx of grey hair, research says.
