Hair: A Reflection of Inner Health and Cellular Regeneration

Factors like oxidative stress, inflammation, poor circulation, or nutrient deficiencies can disrupt this cycle, leading to premature greying or hair loss.

2. Why Does Hair Turn Grey?

Hair greys when melanocytes (pigment-producing cells) become damaged or inactive. The common culprits include:
- Mitochondrial dysfunction
- Loss of glutathione and catalase
- Chronic stress and oxidative load
- Deficiencies in B12, zinc, copper, or selenium

But here's the good news: grey hair may not be a one-way road. With the right nutrients and cellular support, some people—like me—have experienced natural repigmentation.

3. My Story: From Premature Greying to Full Regeneration

I began greying in my 40s—just like my mother and sister, who were fully grey not long after. But something unexpected happened when I started taking network antioxidants daily—specifically alpha-lipoic acid, CoQ10, vitamin C, and vitamin E. These worked synergistically to regenerate glutathione naturally within my body. My hair began turning black again.

Now, at 61, I have a full head of healthy, mostly black hair—even after surviving a stroke in June 2024.

4. Hair Loss After the COVID Vaccine

In August 2022, after my 4th COVID jab (Novavax), my body reacted in a frightening way:
- My weight jumped
- I felt constant fatigue
- My hair began falling out in handfuls

Each time I touched my scalp, hair came away with ease. It was distressing.

This may be linked to immune or inflammatory response, mitochondrial exhaustion, or disruption in nutrient metabolism.

5. My Recovery Protocol: What Worked for Me

I followed this protocol consistently for six months, then tapered off as my hair began to stabilise. The results? My hair stopped falling out and grew back lush, healthy, and deeply pigmented.
