You will find gray hair natural remedies in this article. Gray hair is not always related to age. It is the process where pigmentation of the hair is lost and the hair appears in various stages of gray. The changes can happen very suddenly or gradually.
Causes of gray hair include heredity, stress, thyroid imbalances, anemia, and B-12 deficiency. Smoking and alcohol also contribute to early graying. Smokers are four times as likely to gray earlier.
Many women, and now men, dye their hair, however, hair dyes can be toxic for some people. Natural Henna may be used to add color, although they are not as long lasting as permanent dyes.
From the natural perspective we want to look at preventing gray hair and gray hair reversal by supporting the thyroid, and helping with anemia and nutritional deficiencies. Homeopathic remedies, cell salts, and herbs can assist. Eliminate other substances that may make it harder to reverse gray hair by stressing the body such as tobacco, alcohol, coffee, black tea, and fast foods.
Natural Healing Protocol — First, choose an herb. Then add a cell salt or cell salt solution. Finally, choose the homeopathic remedy that fits your situation best. Combining supplements will do more to support your body’s ability to function properly than using just one. Your ability to heal will depend on the severity and length of time symptoms have been present.
