why stress can potentially grow your hairs grey?
The excessive stress does hair greying before time.
The normal aging process that causes grayness we have genetic factors but there
are also epigenetic factors which are above genes.
Th cause of premature graying because we 're going through too much stress.
The hair follicle has these little cells called stem cells which creates the pigment. When a hair root is exposed to chronic stress, we get an elevation of something called noradrenaline.
Noradrenaline is like the precursor to adrenaline it's responding from the flight or fight mechanism and they found it was a neurotransmitter nor adrenaline that causes these stem cells to migrate away from the hair root into the skin so lose stem cells, now we lose melanocytes and lose ability to keep hair pigmented.
How to keep stress low?
• The more sleep.
• Exercise more.
• B1 intake on a regular basis.
