An estimated 2 million people have white patches on their skin (vitiligo). The most famous was Michael Jackson.

Vitiligo is never fatal; however, it is cosmetically bothersome to those who have it.

The main reason for vitiligo evades the medical profession. However, in the natural field we know to check the link before the symptom.

A lack of melanocytes which produce the melanin (pigmentation) is the cause of this condition. That is why the lack of the melanocytes baffle the doctors.

The link before the melanocyte is the pineal gland (in conjunction with the adrenal gland).

I have worked with 2 little boys with this condition. One was a bi-racial child the other a white child. There is no ethnic connection to this condition although the darker the complexion the more noticeable the white patches.

Both boys have had great results with taking Minerals (which feed the pineal). The one boy took Colloidal minerals while the other took alfalfa which contains many minerals. The reason the one boy took the colloidal was because of his poor digestion.

The bi-racial boy also rubbed mayonnaise on the skin (especially before exposure to the sun’s rays). The other boys mother thought I was nuts. {Special note: the boy who did the mayonnaise showed improvement in reversing the white patches (actually they completely left filling in with pigment) while it just stopped the condition for the other boy.}

The medical profession admits to not having an effective treatment, they suggest cortisone (which is not a lasting treatment) or suggest de-pigmentating the surrounding skin (which does absolutely nothing for the origin of the cause).

It takes several months of taking minerals before you notice a difference. There is also an herb called Wood betony (which grows wild in most areas) that is also suppose to help.

The best part about going the natural route is making the pineal healthier.

This article is states the main reason for this condition, there may be more, but if you suffer from this condition, it would not hurt you to try the above suggestions.

  Vitiligo has no permament cure, it can only be controlled by some medications.

  Sometimes people don’t see a difference in vitiligo, but I have people who are symptom free for up to 16 years…… It is the pituitary gland which produces the hormone melanin, if a person can get their pituitary gland to produce enough of that hormone by nourishing it… then most people would say it was cured.
  
  I know there are a few who this does not help, but it is usually really severe cases. Thank you for reading our blog and for your comment. Being challenged helps us realize we need to clarify!
