Brief Answer:
Premature greying remedy as follows

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Welcome to healthcare magic,
Premature Greying is still a poorly understood entity. The causes suggested are Genetic, Vitamin deficiencies like Vitamin D, Vitamin B12 etc,Stress, Anemia, Smoking etc. The treatment recommended is vitamin supplements with atleast 100 to 200 mg of calcium pantothenate. Even Biotin and anti oxidants help. Now a new product has come in the market(Melitane) which has peptide which stimulates the pigment producing cells of hair. Sufficient studies and experience are not available for it yet.
Biotin rich foods are carrots, almonds, walnut, cucumber, cauliflower, milk and eggs. Eggs also have protein and amino acids required for hair growth. Your diet should be well balanced. Include Vitamin C rich foods like lemon, orange etc Stress relieving exercises like Yoga will help. Stop smoking if you have that habit. Please consult a dermatologist for blood test and initiation of treatment.Hope this helped,
Take care
