How about eating more black sesame seeds and white hair?

Eating more black sesame seeds is good for white hair.

Modern research has proved that the decrease of melanin secretion by hair follicle melanocytes is the main cause of gray hair, and the decrease of tyrosinase quantity is one of its pathological mechanisms. It is found that the water extract of black sesame can promote the expression of tyrosinase and improve the synthesis of melanin, so the gray hair can turn black again.
