Basically pitta imbalance is the main cause for premature greying

So things you should avoid is too salty and spicy foods.
Avoid taking additional salt with food

Moreover stress is also a main factor

Amalki rasayan 1 tsp daily
Eat daily one amla in season 

You can make black til,amla and kalaunji oil and apply it once in a week

Premature greying  suggests Pitta-Vata imbalance, weak liver function, nutritional deficiencies, or hereditary factors. Since topical remedies haven’t worked, we need to focus on internal healing, diet, and stress management along with external care.
Amla (Indian Gooseberry) + Brahmi + Bhringraj Powder – Take ½ tsp daily with warm water to nourish hair from within.
	•	Ashwagandha -1/2 tsp with warm milk at night
	•	Triphala (½ tsp at bedtime) 
	•	Curry Leaves (Kadi Patta) Juice or Powder –take with buttermilk or warm water.

Eat black sesame seeds + jaggery (1 tsp daily).
Drink fresh Amla juice or consume raw Amla daily.
Include ghee, soaked almonds, walnuts, dates, and coconut in your diet.
Avoid spicy, fermented, and processed foods, as they worsen Pitta.
Henna + Indigo Powder – Natural remedy for greying (if you want to darken the hair naturally).
Rinse hair with black tea or curry leaf water.
