Grey hair: why does it appear and how can we slow it down? The answers, according to science

When melanin – a natural pigment produced by cells called melanocytes – becomes scarce, the hair gradually loses its original colour. Several studies, including one recently published in a renowned international scientific journal, clearly detail the mechanisms involved: the activity of the enzyme tyrosinase decreases, melanocytes gradually disappear, and melanin struggles to reach the hair shaft. The result: hair inevitably turns grey.

Fortunately, recent research has highlighted a promising innovation: the patented active ingredient Melaline® / Melatine®, naturally extracted from the wool of black sheep reared in France. This dietary supplement, which is fully bioavailable thanks to an exclusive enzymatic process, has been scientifically proven to stimulate melanogenesis – that is, the body’s natural production of melanin. It provides the skin and hair follicles with the essential nutrients and precursors needed to promote natural melanin production.

Rigorous clinical studies conducted on 32 people over a period of 4 months show surprising results*:

• Visible repigmentation of hair that was initially salt-and-pepper: after just 2 months’ use, a gradual repigmentation of emerging white hairs was observed, and this effect intensified when the treatment was continued for up to 4 months.

• Noticeable strengthening of the hair with reduced hair loss. 90 per cent of testers reported this.

• High satisfaction (95 per cent of testers): they noted an overall improvement in the colour and quality of their hair.

The Aroma-Zone Melanin supplement does more than just slow down the appearance of grey hair. It is also ideal for preparing the skin for the sun and prolonging your tan for longer, thanks to its unique combination of melanin and copper.

• Accelerates and prolongs tanning from the very first exposure to the sun.

• Protects the skin by strengthening its natural defences against free radicals.

• Moisturises and brightens the skin after just one month of use.

Taking just two tablets a day provides your body with benefits that show in your skin and hair. It’s easy to use and perfectly suited to everyday life.
