Doctors' responses
Premature graying of hair can be concerning, but Ayurveda offers several remedies that may help in restoring your natural hair color. Based on traditional Ayurvedic approaches, this may be linked to an imbalance of Pitta dosha. Here are some suggestions:
Firstly, focus on balancing Pitta. Incorporate Pitta-pacifying foods into your diet. Consume bitter, sweet, and astringent tastes more. For example, include plenty of green vegetables, sweet fruits like melons, and cooling herbs like cilantro. Avoid hot, spicy, and oily foods as much as possible, as these can aggravate Pitta.
Secondly, the use of certain herbs is often recommended in Ayurveda to promote hair health. Bhringraj (Eclipta alba) is known as the “king of hair” and may help reverse graying. You can massage the scalp with bhringraj oil thrice a week before washing your hair. Let the oil soak overnight, or for a few hours if preferred.
Triphala is another powerful herb that promotes overall health and can support hair rejuvenation. Take a teaspoon of triphala powder with warm water before bed to help detoxify and balance your system.
Meditation and yoga can play a role too. As stress is considered a significant contributing factor to premature graying, daily practice of mindful activities can help mitigate this. Spend about 15 to 20 minutes daily practicing pranayama, focusing particularly on cooling breaths like Sheetali and Nadi Shodhana.
Also, keep your body hydrated. Drink plenty of water, and you can include amla juice daily as it is rich in vitamin C and can help in maintaining natural hair color.
Remember, your individual prakriti (constitution) can influence how you might respond to these remedies, so if possible, consult with an Ayurvedic practioner to personalize your approach.
