Mental factors are closely related to the onset of vitiligo. Most patients have mental trauma, excessive tension, depression or depression at the onset or skin lesion development stage. The degeneration of nerve endings in leukoplakia also supports the neurochemical theory. So what should vitiligo pay attention to?

What should vitiligo eat to notice

First of all, due to the lack of certain trace elements, it is easy to reduce the function of tyrosine, and tyrosine is necessary for the synthesis of pigment, so patients with vitiligo can eat more food containing copper, iron, zinc and other trace elements, such as animal liver, dairy products, bean products, coarse grains and so on.

Secondly, the lack of tyrosine easily leads to the disorder of pigment synthesis in the body, which leads to the loss of pigment in the body. Patients with vitiligo can eat more foods containing tyrosine, such as pork, eggs, animal liver, milk, soybeans, lentils, peanuts, black sesame, grapes, apples, nuts (walnut, peanut, sunflower seed, walnut), etc.

Finally, vitiligo patients should not eat too much food containing vitamin C, vitamin C has the effect of depigmentation, can interrupt the synthesis of melanin, thus preventing the regeneration of melanin in the lesions. Foods rich in vitamin C include tomatoes, oranges, grapefruits, apricots, hawthorn, cherries, kiwifruit, strawberries, red bayberry, etc., which should be eaten less or not as much as possible.
