Long ago, white hair was a symbol of old age. However, in recent years, due to the pressure of life and dietary problems, many people begin to have white hair at a young age.
Some people have white hair for genetic reasons, while others have white hair for other reasons. It can be avoided if daily care is done well.
So, what causes young people to grow white hair? Some people think that different positions of white hair have different meanings. By observing the position of white hair, we can judge a person's physical health. Is this statement credible? Let's have a look.
The reason why white hair grows is related to many factors. Understanding these factors can help people prevent white hair from appearing.
1. Genetic factors
There is a certain relationship between long white hair and heredity, especially in the case of long white hair, the genetic factor is more obvious.
2. Disease factors
Diseases are also the causes of long white hair, including hyperthyroidism, tuberculosis, pernicious anemia and autonomic nervous dysfunction. It will make people's black hair turn white.
3. Mental factors
I'm sure everyone has heard of getting old overnight. Although this statement is somewhat exaggerated, it also shows that long white hair is related to mental factors. Long-term indulgence in negative emotions such as tension, anxiety, helplessness and sadness will make people grow a lot of white hair.
4. Nutritional factors
When the human body lacks nutrition, especially some vitamin B, iron and copper, people will grow white hair.
We have seen such a scene in many TV dramas, in which the hero was hit hard and then lost his mind overnight. "White hair three thousands of feet, sorrow as long. I don't know where the autumn frost is in the mirror. " "Didn't you see the lovely hair in the bright mirror of the high room? Although it was silky black in the morning, it turned into snow at night?" Wait, literary and artistic works also describe the situation of hoary head overnight.
So in real life, will someone really grow old overnight because of psychological trauma or blow?
Modern medical research has confirmed that it is possible to get white hair overnight, but it is impossible to turn white completely. Hair turning white is mainly due to the lack of melanin and related pigments. Sadness, sadness and mental stimulation will make the formation of melanin difficult.
However, this metabolism is a long-term process, which cannot be completed in a few hours or dozens of hours, but it does not rule out the possibility that heredity or some rare diseases lead to "white hair overnight".
White hair on forehead-spleen and stomach disorder
I believe that in many people, the longest part of white hair must be the forehead, and some people can't find white hair. Now I have a wisp of white hair on my forehead. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that people's foreheads belong to the reflex zone of the spleen and stomach, and people with spleen and stomach dysfunction have a greater probability of white hair on their foreheads.
Spleen and stomach are important organs for human digestion and absorption of food. People with spleen and stomach dysfunction will have abnormal manifestations such as nausea and vomiting, edema of limbs, bad breath, dry mouth, loose stool and sticky pit.
In order to regulate gastrointestinal health and delay the growth of gray hair on the forehead, we should eat more foods with the function of strengthening the spleen and protecting the stomach in daily life, pay attention to keeping the abdomen warm, prevent the abdomen from catching cold, eat less spicy and irritating foods and pay attention to regulating gastrointestinal health.
White hair on the back of the head-deficiency of kidney qi
The back of the head is the hardest part to grow white hair. If white hair often appears in the back of the head, it is likely to be caused by deficiency of kidney qi and kidney deficiency.
Kidney is the foundation of nature, kidney health and human health. The kidney is the main part of the body to urinate in the morning. Once sick, it will affect the process of human urination, and it will also lead to a large accumulation of toxins in the body, which can not be discharged in time, thus increasing the burden on other internal organs.
If people with insufficient kidney qi want to adjust the problem of gray hair in the back of their heads, they can usually eat more foods that help nourish and protect their kidneys, keep exercising, improve their immunity and reduce the invasion of viruses and bacteria. This can effectively relieve the pressure on the kidney and improve the symptoms of kidney yin deficiency.
White hair on the sideburns-liver and gallbladder deficiency
If both temples have long white hair, it means that the liver and gallbladder are insufficient. The parts near the temples and ears are mainly closely related to the liver and gallbladder, but also closely related to the liver. The liver mainly stores blood, so the long white hair on the temples is also caused by insufficient blood supply.
When you find white hair in your temples, coupled with abnormal phenomena in daily life, such as frequent dizziness or short-term blurred eyes, it proves that insufficient blood supply and oxygen supply lead to short-term hypoxia.
An effective way to regulate liver and gallbladder deficiency: in daily life, you should eat more foods that benefit qi and nourish blood, such as red dates, longan, medlar, etc., or drink millet porridge to dissolve blood.
1. Go to bed at night 1 1.
Night 1 1 to 1 is the season of gallbladder meridian, and morning 1 to 3: 00 is the season of liver meridian. Staying up late for a long time will make your insides unbearable.
2. Comb your hair every day 100 times
From the forehead to the back neck, it covers the stomach, gallbladder and bladder meridian of the human body. You can massage these three meridians from the forehead to the back of the neck every day, which is conducive to the blackening of white hair.
Massage the scalp with your fingers.
Draw a circle on the scalp with your fingertips and press it, or pat the scalp, which can promote blood circulation in the head.
Under normal circumstances, people around the age of 40 will have melanocyte degeneration, excessive loss of trace elements in the body, excessive pressure and so on.
For young people with long white hair, it may be related to malnutrition caused by mental stress, fatigue, lack of sleep, neurological factors and excessive pressure. If the patient has premature gray hair, it may be related to hormonal disorders and chronic diseases in the body. It is recommended that patients go to a regular hospital for examination and treat them according to the examination results.
In addition to treatment, the phenomenon of gray hair can be improved by adjusting the diet structure, such as eating more beans and vegetables, such as spinach, potatoes, black sesame seeds, animal offal and other foods.
Baldness is indeed hereditary, but the probability of heredity is not particularly great. Long-term bad mood and overwork will accelerate the process of hair from black to white. For people with baldness, maintaining a good mental state in life can not only alleviate baldness, but also promote its treatment.
Hair, like all organs and tissues of the body, must have sufficient nutrition supply to grow normally and maintain a healthy state. Lack of B vitamins, vegetable oil and protein will lead to baldness.
