The main cause of grey hair is a lack of the essential nutrients, especially vitamin A and B group vitamins, along with the minerals copper, iron and zinc. Copper in particular is not only necessary for hair pigmentation, it is needed by the body to maintain the health of the artery walls and without it you end up with what’s known as elastic fibre breakdown. When this occurs the arterial walls become weak, eventually causing an aneurism (the ballooning of an artery or blood vessel). This is a life threatening condition as it can burst, resulting in either severe stroke or death.
A good case in point is Albert Einstein. If you ever saw pictures of him in his later years you would instantly recognise his bright silver grey hair.
Einstein died of a ruptured aneurism!
Supplements That are Potent Grey Hair Natural Remedies...
So your first course of action to treating gray hair is to start taking a good liquid colloidal mineral supplement. These contain all the minerals your body needs in a highly absorbable form. You may also need to take extra colloidal copper until your grey hair recedes.
Also take black strap molasses as this is rich in essential vitamins and minerals (many people swear by this supplement as a natural remedy for grey hair), along with the very powerful Fo-ti herb, which actually translates to "black-haired Mr. He" (black haired man) in Chinese. This herb has been reported to reverse grey hair very quickly for many people (you can read some positive testimonials here). With Fo-ti, you can either take supplements, or buy it as a tea, or actually buy the root and make your own tea everyday.
In addition to these, cereal grasses such as wheat and barley grass are an excellent source of vitamin A and the B group vitamins along with copper, iron, silica and zinc and should also be supplemented with everyday. You can click on the links on this website or visit your local health food store to purchase any of these supplements.
And finally, remember this important point about curing your grey hair... if the bad stuff’s going away on the outside, it’s definitely going away on the inside as well!!
You May Have to Look a Bit Different for a While
As your gray hair recedes you will find your natural colour grows from the roots outward. This can make your hair look a bit strange at first but stick with it and eventually your hair will return back to its original colour.
The most important thing is to not worry about what other people think.
I remember quite a few years ago working with a guy who was very paranoid about his greying hair. I suggested he start taking a liquid colloidal mineral supplement and cereal grass - which he did. As his hair colour began to return to normal the people he worked with started to make fun of his hair, calling him “Mr Grecian 2000”. The sad part is he actually listened to them and stopped taking the supplements. (All of a sudden he decided he looked better with gray hair). I tried to tell him that by curing his grey hair he was also curing the damage that was going on inside his body, but unfortunately, he didn’t listen. I often wonder how healthy he is today or if he is even still alive.
Topical Grey Hair Natural Remedies You May Want to Use...
So now you know how to treat and cure your grey hair permanently. But if you really don’t like the idea of having different pigmented hair until your original colour returns, here are some topical home remedies to help speed up the process and hide those unwanted grey's…
Onion Juice Mixed With Lemon Juice is a Powerful Grey Hair Natural Remedy: Onion juice is rich in the enzyme catalase and has been used for centuries as a topical treatment and home remedy for grey hair. In fact, herbalists have been advising their patients to rub onions on their scalps to cure grey hair long before any hair dyes were ever invented!
Back in 2009, Bradford University in the UK discovered that a build up of hydrogen peroxide in the hair follicles and scalp caused thinning and grey hair. They also discovered that the catalase enzyme neutralizes hydrogen peroxide and reverses grey hair.
So rubbing onions and onion juice mixed with lemon on your scalp everyday is a very potent natural remedy for grey hair (the only down side is of course the smell). Wheat grass and barley grass are also rich in catalase so mix up a paste and rub this onto your scalp everyday as well.
Gooseberries as a Gray Hair Cure: You actually drink gooseberry juice every day along with mixing up a combination of dried gooseberries and coconut or almond oil, which you then rub and massage into your scalp every night. The best type of gooseberry if you can find it is the Indian gooseberry known as “amia”.
Henna - Another Very Good Natural Remedy for Grey Hair: Mix up some castor oil and lemon juice until it goes frothy then add some henna. Apply the mixture to your hair and scalp and leave it on for at least an hour before washing and shampooing your hair. Repeat 2 or 3 times a week.
