Im glad I quit coloring my hair. I love my gray hair😊 Being WFPB I get asked where do I get my protein. I have just as much hair as I always have, and it grows superfast. So, not worried about my protien at age 72.
I started getting grey hairs around age 25 (as a Caucasian) but once I went vegan a couple years later, I've developed next to zero new grey hairs in the past 10 years. I just have the same ones I noticed over ten years ago. I was eating like crap before, and switched to a wfpb diet. I really believe it has to do with nutrient consumption (at least until we're much older).
I'm almost 48 and have no grey hairs, except if I let my beard grow, that's where the greying has started. I have been eating mostly plantbased for the last 10 years, and i take some B vitamins.
i'm 31, have all my hair and healthy hair, i eat well and take supplements, but there's quite a few grey ones in there too. i blame it on a solid amount of emotional stress that i went through between age 25 and 30. distress of any kind will lead to oxidative stress on a cellular level...
Can't wait for Part 2. I am 70 and have only, in the past 2 years, started seeing a few gray hairs. I would estimate that less than half a percent of my hair is gray now. Part of it, I am sure is genetic, since my Italian mother still had dark hair when she passed at 65, but I also think a healthy diet full of anti-oxidants and running long distance for all of my adult life has contributed. But, just not sure. Grateful, but gray hair isn't so bad either. 😁
I had graying hairs in school, but after I become vegan in university they were gone, colleges started asking if I dye my hair. P. S. I am not a junk food vegan, the opposite.
My hair was thinning and going grey. In 2021 my doctor was very concerned with my blood work, on my own I went whole food plant based & S.O.S. free eating. Now, I still hv some grey, tucked under my natural colour that has returned. Our bodies repair when fed with real food ! 🥬 👋 Dr.Greger, sad I missed ur talk when u were in Toronto, recently. Chris, Ont 🇨🇦 👋
Long ago I witnessed at an MIT lecture neuro-anatomist Walle Nauta report he had observed from several dissections of embryos that each region of the brain has a dendrite that migrates around the skull to a particular scalp hair follicle. So graying and baldness are result of changes in particular parts of the brain.
Oxidation strikes again! Let me guess, eating lots of anti-oxidants may reduce the rate at which we go grey. Therefore an unprocessed plant based diet is the best counter to going grey?
@@SA-cx1gkHaha same here! Single must be the secret. I just turned 40. Every time I think I've spotted my first gray, it ends up just being a piece of my dog's white fur that got into my hair. 😂
Almost all the Koreans I know went gray before they were 30. I started getting gray hair in middle school, and 10-20% of my hair went gray before I was 30.
@@stx7389 It's easier and cheaper, and actually looks pretty cool on some people. I have nothing against dying hair as a concept and might dye hair later in life (or not), but I wish we stopped imposing it as some golden standard, especially for women.
It's a vitamin and mineral deficiencies. When micronutrients are depleted or low levels in human body you get grey, hair loss, skin is dull, and bad oral teeth. When you have a lack of fat and protein in your diet these variables will happen sooner than later.
I remember getting my first gray hair at 15, and I went significantly gray in my 20s. Now I'm 41 and most of my hair is gray. One of my sons now has his first gray hairs at 18, and my 23 year old son has some nice salt and pepper coming in at his temples already. Apparently my grandfather did the same thing. I remember his hair being almost white in his 50s. I actually hope my hair turns completely white. That would be so cool. My husband has almost no gray hair in his mid forties. It's interesting how it all comes together.
What to do about it? Just embrace it. I quit the dye > 10 years ago and I'm super glad. No stressing over needing to color grey roots, pressure to spend the time with it, harsh chemicals, cost, etc, etc. I'll never go back. I'm almost 60, hair dye won't change that.
It doesn't appear that this research applies to redheads. My anecdotal experience on the redhead forums is that our hair goes blonde or gets darker with age. My mom's red hair turned strawberry blonde, while mine is turning more auburn than red. Also, I have always had blonde eyelashes and still do. It's not the darkest hair on me!
My hair went almost totally grey and then I started eating a beans & greens vegan diet and now I have no more grey hair (which I think is a side effect of eating beans).
So I love to dye my hair with vegan friendly hair dyes. BUT you have to first bleach your hair to get it to the right tone so that the cute pastel colors can be used. Otherwise they won't show. BUT this process requires to bleach so this means let the hair fully exposed to hydrogen peroxide and high levels even upto 40% and let it sit for 40 min. This is crazy, because it means it would also cause gray hairs to permanently show there. Didn't understand why so many gray hairs show up and now it's too late. It's funny because the only 2 hair sections that I bleached, those sections got overrun by actual gray hairs. Didn't even think it was due to the hydrogen peroxide. I just thought, damn I'm getting old must dye this gray hair before they are more noticeable and turns out, I end up making things worse...
That’s interesting, I must be an anomaly. My hair originally dark auburn, was snow white on my crown in 2017 (I also stopped dying my hair a couple years before) with considerable grey hairs elsewhere. I began changing my diet towards WFPB, but was eating lots of soy meat substitute products in my transition. In 2018/19 I was more vegetables than soy products. By 2020 my crown was beginning to show a little color - now it is showing a little more color- all over my head …. (I hardly eat any fake meats). I wonder what is causing my color to return ever so slowly? My suspicion is that I eat a lot of green leafy veggies and the minerals from these is doing it, but I don’t have any proof. Do you know if it is possible for minerals in our diet to affect the color of our hair? The only trouble I have is my hair keeps shedding… which I don’t understand if my diet is primarily wfpb ( not 100% but pretty close).
I just started getting a tiny bit of gray on my baby hairs by my hairline and I'm 61. 😟 I guess I had a good run. The question is how do I keep it at a minimum?
From what I've been told by my filipino coworkers there is more whole foods consumed and much less work life stress. Sure one can't buy a fancy car and the latest electronics, but work life balance is better for many there, along with much less stress. They of course speak for themselves. We aren't talking about those that live in abject poverty there.
So, what makes the grey hairs more course then? I have this mole, which has gone though it's hair journey from my natural blonde, to black, now white/grey hairs. The hair itself has gone though several changes of being long and fine, to course and pokey...and it will flop flop brtween the two. My wisdom whiskers have always been pokey and grayish. Seems like stress and hormones have a big role to play in both the colour and texture...just would like an explanation as to why it gets thicker and course; or is that just a trick?
It's interesting that some exercise routines have been linked to an increase in antioxidant production in the body. It would interesting to see if there was an exercise routine that could undo greying of hair that coincided with an increase in antioxidants from the exercise training.
OK, but as a European woman in my early 70's, why am I grey just around the temples and front of my face, and the rest of my hair is still dark? It's certainly a lot thinner than it used to be, i.e. less hair mass, but only about 20% has become grey.
To reduce hair graying eat, black sesame seeds, add 1 teaspoon of blackstrap molasses to your diet, and if your home doesn’t have copper pipes, you might want to consider drinking from a copper cup.
do you have a specific probiotic recommendation? I can't find anything with the strains that wOuld give me Urolithin A producing bacteria. all I can do is gamble by trying different things.
Keeps asking the same question (Why does hair turn gray) over and over again but always answers some other question. Is it so painful to say, "I don't know"? These are not explanations of anything.
Thanks as ever for your videos! Please can you do a video on Hereditary Haemochrotosis (HH / Celtic Curse)? Surprisingly in the UK I have spoken to quite a few medical professionals who have seem to be unaware of it. Like 1:200 people of Northern European descent have, it ranges higher in the British Isles from 1-150 in England to 1-83 in Irish Rep. At least it would highlight for people who have a mystery illness and early treatment is always better. I didn't find out until I did one of those genetic tests after years of feeling tired and slightly unwell, finding out I had HH was a real surprise. Fortunately, I think a vegan / low inflammatory diet maybe saved me the worst of it. Thanks.
Don’t think it’s a food or supplement problem, know many Vegans with grey hair, plus some are young as well, probably to do with certain chemicals that build up in the body over many years.
@@Haze1434 if it was possible he himself would probably not have grey hair. In the end he says the theory is the free radical damage... so antioxidants should protect it. But we see vegans with totally gray hair, so either is some antioxidant they don't get or its more a genetic thing.
@@Nobody-NowhereIt's not possible to eliminate it with a 100% success rate for 100% of the human population, and yes, individual genetics do play a certain role. But there are certain recommendations that might slow down/minimize the process, and, if nothing else, will just make you healthier overall.
What can be done about it?? How to reverse it? There have been cases of repigmentation after a burn of the skin. And after cancer and vitiligo therapy.
As a 34½ year old Indian man, I have just 2 grey hair on my body - one in my nose, one on my beard. I think there's something awesome about it, meanwhile most of my cousins, my nieces and nephews in their early and mid-20s have half of their hair grey, including my brothers. Can someone explain me that? I'm Fitzpatrick scale 5, dark brown hair, Indo-Aryan by race.
Do they tend to eat more than you or at least more proteins than you? Way more lentils than you? Sulphur in proteins could be the culprit. Legumes are high in sulphur. We humans are kind of fixated on proteins yet many longevity studies show the less protein, the longer we live. Of course there are exceptions.
I prefer the theory of Arnold Ehret, an author in the early 1900s, that it's the sulphur in proteins that chelate minerals out of body therefore bleaching hair. Eggs and beans/peanuts especially maybe since they can cause a lot of sulphuric gas. I wish Dr. Greger talked more humbly instead of a know-it-all, "these are the facts" type of doctor. Please present like, "Maybe this is why...".
It’s always interesting to see where his blind spots are, considering how out of the box he is compared to most MDs. He just did a video on Vitamin E for example, without covering that most studies used the synthetic form of Tocopheral. He also never mentioned the more important variant, Tocotrienals. These were distinctions being made in consumer level books on nutrition over a decade ago. But he didn’t address this at all. He also never presents studies that claim a net negative effect from any vaccine or vaccine schedule. And maybe the studies aren’t good, but at least address them since they are all over the internet.
Wondering what would cause no such build up then, in hydrogen peroxide, in ppl who as they age, do not grey? My husband at 73 still has not 1 grey hair on his head. While his sideburns (and beard if he let it grow) are completely grey, his head remains thick and brown. And it's not diet, unless junk food is key to not greying. I'm WFPB, while he's definitely not. I'm guessing since his mother also did not have a grey hair until her 80's, it can only be genetics?

It’s always interesting to see where his blind spots are, considering how out of the box he is compared to most MDs.
He just did a video on Vitamin E for example, without covering that most studies used the synthetic form of Tocopheral. He also never mentioned the more important variant, Tocotrienals. These were distinctions being made in consumer level books on nutrition over a decade ago. But he didn’t address this at all.
He also never presents studies that claim a net negative effect from any vaccine or vaccine schedule. And maybe the studies aren’t good, but at least address them since they are all over the internet.
Wondering what would cause no such build up then, in hydrogen peroxide, in ppl who as they age, do not grey? My husband at 73 still has not 1 grey hair on his head. While his sideburns (and beard if he let it grow) are completely grey, his head remains thick and brown.
And it's not diet, unless junk food is key to not greying. I'm WFPB, while he's definitely not. I'm guessing since his mother also did not have a grey hair until her 80's, it can only be genetics?
Bro ur diet is fossilizing you. Can u run a mile at decent pace? Squat body weight how many times? Grip strength?? U good brother?
