5 foods to eat if you want to delay greying of hair

Blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, and blackberries are rich in antioxidants, especially vitamin C, which helps combat free radical damage to hair follicles and melanocytes.

They also help the body absorb iron more efficiently (especially from plant-based sources), supporting better circulation and delivering nutrients to the scalp. This helps promote overall hair health and pigment retention.

How to eat it: Add berries to your yoghurt, oatmeal, or just snack on a bowlful during your Netflix binge.

Fun fact: Vitamin C also helps in collagen production, which keeps hair strong and supple.

Other honourable mentions

While the above five are the real MVPs, here are a few other foods worth mentioning:

Liver: A rich source of copper and B12.

Carrots: Loaded with vitamin A for a healthy scalp.

Black sesame seeds: An ancient Ayurvedic remedy for premature greying.
