Say no to these 10 foods to keep your hair from turning grey

Caffeine Excessive caffeine consumption can affect iron absorption. This weakens hair follicles and leads to early greying.

Alcohol Alcohol exhausts vitamin B, zinc, and copper levels, all of which are important for maintaining hair colour and preventing greying.

Sugary foods Excess sugar can damage collagen, which leads to weaker hair and premature greying due to nutritional imbalances.

Carbonated drinks Loaded with sugar and chemicals, these drinks can deplete the nutrients needed to maintain hair pigmentation.

Fried foods High in unhealthy fats, fried foods can cause inflammation, affecting melanin production responsible for hair colour.

Highly processed snacks Chips and crackers lack nutrients and contribute to vitamin deficiencies that can lead to premature greying.

 Refined carbohydrates White bread, pasta, and rice lack nutrients and can impact blood sugar levels, which affects hair health and causes greying.

Junk food High in unhealthy fats and low in nutrients, junk food speeds up ageing, which affects hair health and colour.

Excessive salt Too much salt can dehydrate the body and restrict nutrient absorption, speeding up the greying process.
