Premature graying of hair in adolescents may be caused by genetic factors or psychological stressors—such as prolonged depression or excessive mental tension. It may also result from nutritional deficiencies or inadequate intake of trace elements. In daily life, consuming foods rich in melanin—such as black sesame seeds and black beans—may be beneficial.
