Did you mean copper ?*

[@eruditedupreneur]

Yes, I realize this a few years ago when one minute I was eating all natural foods my hair was black, when I went back to eating processed food it started to have sprouts of gray hair. I realize every time I change back my diet, my hair turned back black. When I researched this I found out it is lack of copper. My hair is black. I never get gray hairs. So yes I agree.

[@fresnoniiji]

Just read a book by Jentezen Franklin about fasting in which he talks about a guy who fasted for so long his hair actually went from grey back to black.

I’m so glad to hear that gray hairs can be reversed. I think that’s what been happening for me. I used to eat YEARS of fast foods and processed foods. Around age 40 my hair had a lot of gray hairs. Around age 45 I decided to change. I’ve been changing my eating due to my body slowing down & being prediabetic because of the trash I’ve been eating. I’ve been cooking my own meals 90% of the time and incorporating healthy foods. And learning to read ingredients. Now at age 49, I noticed my hair is slightly salt & pepper. I remember it looking more gray years ago. I think the gray is slowly lessening. I thought I was imagining things until watching this video. I also used to have white spots on my nails that also vanished when I started eating healthier. Now I’m motivated to try to reverse even more gray hairs. Jesus is AWESOME!!! I feel I’ve been spiritually lead throughout this entire journey, that’s including discovering Dr. Bobby❤️

My stroke impacted my speech for a spell. My left body was numb for awhile. If it wasn't for my swim coach (aqua classes) private assistance and yoga classes, I don't know where would I be right now. When I started taking aqua classes I listened to womens' testimonies ( wrote them down) about their ailments and healing. I knew something about the water was a healing place. Everybody's body is different, what was effective in repairing my body was the omega fatty oils. I read I every book related to my condition to regain my health and strength.

When I eat dairy, I notice my new growth starts turning really gray, but when I stop, it diminishes.

[@Alice-fr1ef]

Sometimes it can be stress that cause grey hair. I could never understand why so many think getting older brings so many negative effects to our lives. I just read about a 89 year young lady that works 12 to14 hours daily running two companies, is very active and her family is worried about her young stud who they think is after her money. He is 12 years younger than she is and she met him at the gym where she works out. Sounds like to me she has taken very good care of herself. Thank you for a very good video Dr. Price.

[@ArtTheSinger]

It’s not directly stress. Stress weaken the immune system so a host issues happen it’s more so a domino effect. All organs in the body are connected.

I used to wonder why my gray hairs would "change their minds" and turn dark again until my doctor educated me on nutritional deficiencies.

When I was a child I had a very stressful period around the age 9 years old . During this time, my hair fell out on my right side, where I had a large bald patch for a while. My hair then grew back grey, but my strands where thick like an old persons. I thought I was going to stay like this forever! After about a year it grew back to black!

Waiting for the B12 video!❤ I know it will be really interesting💪🏻

[@OGCrypto33]

B12 comes from the soil. It's a myth u get it just from meat.

[@ibmatlore]

Stress is the number one reason for hair loss and graying. You forgot to mention that low level of copper not zinc is one of the major cause of graying. Another problem is being an vegetarian. They don’t get the required amount of absorbable protein and vit b12. Best form is from grass fed meat, especially grass fed beef liver. Pine pollen is amazing for all hair issues.

[@t-four446]

Around 15:20 his first thing said as 1 was copper deficiency #2 B12 deficiency, so I’m trying to understand what you were listening to to say “he forgot to mention low level of copper not zinc”

@@t-four446 It’s just not only copper but the ratio between copper and zinc.

I juice berries, sometimes with an avocado, occasionally a frozen banana in a organic protein powder, with pre-and probiotic, including spirulina, and Corello! My deli take a water I have to drink more it have to be Good water from the source, I do like exercising, but stretch more than I don’t! I truly hope I can turn this ugly gray away as much as possible, it makes it make me feel truly truly old. Lastly, I do keep my hair wrap, especially when I go out because of the elements, and the summer washing my hair. I sit in the sun and let it dry that way. Again, I am not embracing this way here at all, in fact, it has lowered self-esteem, because when I look in the mirror, I see a totally different woman.

Yeah I don’t know really as genetics are controlled by epigenetics, they may be a factor but they aren’t really a decider of what genes are expressed. There are people with zero Hosford if sickness in their family who can get that sickness and genetics don’t control genetics. Expression is mediated and really copper deficiency could be a bigger factor.

Just a tip most of what we have thought to be genetics are not what we think . U don’t inherit traits in that way 90 percent of what we think is genetics is only the way u realate to food .

What a year of fun... my peers ate me alive. During my high school years, (currently) I worshipped at Trinity United of Christ where black beautiful natural women were radiant. Their skin was flawless. Back in those days, we were conscious folk. It's amazing right? I'm now those women. Thank you Jesus. Life is amazing. But you are right, even smaller kids under five get their hair relaxed. The average age 8 where the girls get those relaxers. We know the history, where the root came from. Let me get out of here.
