It is said that "Grey hair is a
crown of splendor." That may be true, but some of us aren't quite ready to
wear that crown. Although there are no methods yet to avoid grey hair entirely,
there are some steps you can take to prevent grey hair for as long as possible.
Instructions
1.
o
1
Stop smoking!
Smoking has been scientifically proven to cause premature aging of the entire
body, and that includes getting grey hair. If you want to prevent grey hair and
you smoke, quitting should be the first, most important step.
o
2
Relax. It has been
found that stress can be linked to premature grey hair. Stress has an effect on
the body like smoking, causing it to age faster. Search for ways to calm your
emotions - like regular exercise or meditation - and you will also prevent grey
hair.

3
Examine your diet.
Grey hair begins to appear due to a breakdown in protein synthesis. In
particular, this is caused by a copper insufficiency. Luckily, there are many
ways to get more of this mineral:
1. Take a
multi-vitamin. Most of them contain copper.
2. Eat foods that
contain copper. I have included a link at the end of this article for
copper-containing foods. Some common ones include turnip greens, lima beans,
yams, spinach, and most meats.
3. Eat fruits and
nuts, particularly - blackberries, pineapples, pomegranates, almonds, and
pumpkin seeds.
o
4
Herbs. There are
some herbs in Chinese medicine that people claim prevent grey hair. The most
popular is called He Shou We, or Fo-ti. "He Shou Wu means
"black-haired Mr. He" in Chinese. In the resources section below, I
have included a link to how Fo-ti is used to prevent grey hair.
