Causes of white hair growth
Premature graying of hair or white hair has several underlying causes, both known and unknown to us. Let’s discuss them all:
- Stress: Prolonged exposure to stress or stressful situations can adversely impact your hair and scalp health. Chronic stress is largely linked to premature graying of hair.
- Melanin deficiency: Sometimes, low melanin levels can also be a reason for the increased growth of white hair. Many conditions may affect melanin production in the body, including age, genetics, sun damage, etc.
- Malnutrition: Lack of vitamins like B5 & B12, Iron, and other minerals can lead to a lack of color in your hair. It may also lead to hair loss and dryness.
- Low serotonin: Reduced or no workouts and low sleep levels don’t help in enhancing serotonin levels in your body but only cause the opposite.
