Grey hair isn’t aging.
1 in 4 people go grey before 30.
It’s your cells screaming for help.
Here’s everything you need to know about grey hair (& how to fix it naturally):🧵
Grey hair is a signal of oxidative stress and cellular malfunction.
Your hair turns grey when melanocytes (cells that produce pigment) stop working properly.
And this happens much earlier than most people think.
Cause #1: Hydrogen peroxide.
Your body produces low levels of hydrogen peroxide naturally.
But when oxidative stress builds up, your hair follicles accumulate hydrogen peroxide.
It’s like bleaching your hair from the inside out.
Cause #2: Mitochondrial dysfunction.
Grey hair is often an early sign of your mitochondria—the energy factories in your cells—slowing down.
They produce more ROS (Reactive Oxygen Species), damage melanocytes, and lead to premature greying.
Cause #3: Chronic stress.
High stress increases noradrenaline, which depletes the stem cells responsible for forming pigment.
Once they’re gone, they don’t regenerate.
A 2020 Harvard study proved it:
FIX #1: Replenish key nutrients.
If you’re low on B12 or copper, your hair WILL show it.
Start with:
• Methylated B12 (methylcobalamin)
• Chelated copper
• Iron if deficient (test first!)
• Vitamin D3 + K2
• Zinc

FIX #2: Boost catalase.
Catalase is the enzyme that breaks down hydrogen peroxide.
Support it with:
• Raw liver or desiccated liver capsules
• Broccoli sprouts (rich in sulforaphane)
• Green tea
FIX #3: Restore mitochondrial health.
Healthier mitochondria = less oxidative stress = preserved color.
• CoQ10 (Ubiquinol form)
• Cold exposure
• Intermittent fasting (activates mitophagy)
FIX #4: Manage stress.
Grey hair is reversible in some cases.
In 2021, Columbia University researchers observed hair regain pigment after stress reduction.
Fix #5: Fix modern habits that bleach your hair.
• Vaping floods your body with free radicals, depletes antioxidants
• Blue light at night disrupts melatonin, blocks cell repair
• Overstimulation (caffeine + constant notifications): spikes cortisol, kills pigment stem cells
