Sooner or later, we all face graying hair, as this process is natural and irreversible.

However, silver strands may appear prematurely. One of the reasons for this "phenomenon" is an unbalanced diet, since the consumption of certain foods is fraught with the loss of the coloring pigment contained in the curls.

This is what should be on the stop list.

Refined sugar

Refined sugar penetrates the blood very quickly, increases the load on the pancreas and makes the diet much more caloric, but this is only half the trouble. Refined sugar can also cause inflammation in the body, which leads to early graying of hair.

Fried food

Any food that has been fried in vegetable oil contains a lot of trans fats, which also lead to inflammatory processes in the body. As you remember, those, in turn, are fraught with the appearance of premature gray hair.

Coffee

If you overdo it with caffeine, you can face dehydration. Due to the loss of moisture, hair becomes dry and dull, loses its shine and turns gray.

Processed products

We are talking about semi-finished products, fast food, sausages, chips and other products that undergo deep processing and are deprived of certain substances (for example, those that reduce shelf life), instead of which they acquire others. Such food contains a lot of sugar, trans fats and other harmful components that contribute to excess weight gain and impair the production of melanin, which is responsible for hair color.

Alcohol

Alcohol deprives the body of essential nutrients, including those needed for beautiful and healthy hair.
