Scientists often say there’s no evidence that it’s possible to reverse grey hair color — but science still hasn’t successfully cured cancer, among other problems. Others say that certain foods actually do have the power to re-pigment your locks, and there can be no question that good nutrition can help stave off premature grey hair. Instead of stocking up on grey hair dye, maybe you should be collecting recipes to reverse and prevent grey hair color instead.

Grey hair and food
Folklore, science and old wives’ tales suggest that many different foods are useful at preventing and combating grey hair color. Vitamin B12, Omega 3 and folic acid are needed by hair and hair follicles, and keeping your diet rich in these needed nutrients could help prevent premature grey hair. Vegetables radishes and spirulina are rich in copper, a mineral that’s directly tied to pigmentation (color) in hair and skin. Spirulina is a type of seaweed that’s rich in vitamins A, E and B as well as copper. Avocado is also rich in copper, and contains very healthy dietary fibers and vitamin A. All three ingredients may be used in soups, salads, salsas and dips, eaten raw or cooked, together or separately.
Some research indicates that catalase in the body will counter-act the natural build up of hydrogen peroxide in the hair follicles that ultimately leads to grey hair color. Eating a catalase-rich diet, therefore, may not only prevent the appearance of grey hair but even reverse it. Sweet potatoes are a very useful source of natural catalase and very nutritious. Onions, kale, carrots, celery and leeks are also rich in catalase. All of these ingredients can be used in casseroles, and sweet potato fries are a healthy hair-saving treat. Pair it with an avocado dip that’s rich in onions, leeks and celery, and you have a delicious treat that might just help you reverse grey hair color.

When eaten raw, fruits like cherries, bananas and pineapple also provide you with natural catalase. These fruits are tasty ingredients in salads, smoothies, yogurt and even when eaten alone.

Shirley,
Did his wife really cheat on him??????? His behavior sounds like he was the cheat, add not the wife. Just be careful with your heart, and make decisions with your head...
Obligation is something we make up. It is instead of saying no, when you listen carefully you will hear the VN groan, oh NO, not that again. I strongly suspect women (especially) are raised to be too polite. My experience is: 
Hi Watermusic! Love your response. I have found that once I allowed myself to be open to new ideas and new skills, a whole new world opened up for me. I used to tell myself that I was just useless at certain things because that's what other people to
