How to choose a diet for vitiligo

The actual food and drink is not a good idea, but it is a good idea to pay attention to the nature of the food and the hot and cold nature of the disease.

The vitiligo is caused by the diminished function of tyrosinase system in the melanocytes of the skin and hair follicles, resulting in the impairment of melanin production and the occurrence of skin pigment loss spots, namely white spots. Because vitamin C can make the formed dopaquinone immediately reduced to dopa, thus interrupting the biosynthesis of melanin; on the other hand, vitamin C will affect both the intestinal absorption of copper ions and reduce the serum copper oxidase activity in the blood, thus affecting the tyrosinase activity. Therefore, vitiligo patients should usually eat as little or no vitamin C as possible, for vitamin C-rich foods should also try not to eat or eat less, such as fresh orange, lime, grapefruit, fresh dates, hawthorn, cherries, kiwi, strawberries, prunes, peppers, celery, carrots, etc. Too acidic and too spicy food should also be noted. Patients can eat more foods containing tyrosine and minerals, such as lean meat, eggs, animal offal [liver, kidney, etc.], milk, fresh vegetables, various beans and their products, peanuts, black sesame and walnuts and other hard-shelled fruits, as well as some black foods such as black rice, black beans, etc., and raisins and oysters, snails and other shellfish.

Regular life, living in moderation.

Do not overdo the seven emotions, keep your mood relaxed and build up confidence to overcome the disease.

The actual fact is that you will be able to get a good deal of time to take the medication.
