Factors that Favor Gray Hair Reversal

Although there is still no guaranteed treatment, some habits and conditions seem to have a positive influence:

Stress reduction through practices such as mindfulness, meditation, or yoga.
A diet rich in antioxidants, including fruits, vegetables, turmeric, and green tea.
Essential vitamins and minerals (B12, copper, iron, zinc).
Restful sleep, essential for cell regeneration.
Regular physical exercise, which improves circulation and oxygenation of the hair follicle. Is it possible to reverse all gray hair?
