problems...

PREMATURE GREYING OF HAIR

Premature Greying of Hair treatment using Curry Leaves

Liberal intake of curry leaves is considered beneficial in preventing premature greying of hair. These leaves
have the property of providing vitality and strength to hair roots. New hair roots that grow are healthier and
contain a normal pigment. The leaves can be used in the form of spicy condiment, or may be squeezed in
buttermilk. When the leaves are boiled in coconut oil, the oil forms an excellent hair tonic to stimulate hair
growth and bring back hair pigmentation.

Premature Greying of Hair treatment using Vitamins

The vitamins considered useful in guarding against premature greying of hair are pantothenic acid, para-
aminobenzoic acid (paba), inositol. The minimum daily requirement of these vitamins appears to be 10 mg
of pantothenic acid, 100 mg of para-aminobenzoic acid, and 2 gm of inositol. To obtain satisfactory results,
all three of these vitamins belonging to the B group should be supplied at one time, preferably in a form
which supplies all the B vitamins, such as yeast and liver. The three anti-greying-hair vitamins can also be
produced in the intestinal tract by bacteria. Thus, taking a sufficient quantity of yoghurt daily and a
tablespoonful of yeast before each meal is an excellent remedy for the prevention and treatment of
premature greying of hair. If one wishes to take tablets of calcium pantothenate and para-aminobenzoic
acid (paba), they should be taken in addition to the yeast and yoghurt, and not as a substitute for them.
