Vitiligo patients are short of some trace metal elements in their blood and leucoderma parts,which leads to the decrease of tyrosinase activity.It will greatly influence the synthesis and metabolism of melanin and then generate lesion. Therefore,vitiligo patients should eat more foods containing copper,zinc,iron and other metallic elements.It will increase the tyrosinase activity and then speed up melanin synthesis.
1.Eat foods rich in tyrosinase and mineral substance:
Eat these foods, such as meat ( beef,rabbit meat, pork), animal liver, egg (egg,duck egg,quail egg) , milk (milk,yoghourt) , vegetables (fresh vegetables,radish,eggplant,winter bamboo shoots,agaric,kelp),
bean(soybean,pea, mung bean,bean products),peanut, semen sesami nigrum, nut,raisin,spiral shell,clam and other mussel foods.
2.Avoid the following foods:
(1)Don’t eat green onion , garlic , fish , shrimp , mutton , bamboo shoots , pickles , pepper ,wine and etc.At the same time, don’t eat spinach.Because it contains too much oxalic acid and will itch the affected region.
(2)Eat less food containing too much vitamin C. Because vitamin C will decrease the serum copper and serum copper oxidase,which will influence tyrosinase activity and disturb the synthesis of melanin.
(3)Avoid cherry.Vitiligo patients should not eat too much cherry.Cherry contains abundant vitamin C.In the process,which will interrupt melanogenesis and aggravate the illness.
