Vitamin B12, Zinc & Spinach with Prescription Cream Helping Vitiligo

I was diagnosed with vitiligo in June 2015. I had large white spots form around my eyes. Doctors said there was no cure, only to apply Protopic 0.1% to the lesions every day and see what happens. But after some research I found that protopic works most effectively when combined with the following vitamins: B12 (1000 mcg) - once a day, B Complex (50 mg) - once a day, Zinc (100 mg) - once a day.

Together with anti-oxidants like raw spinach a few times a week. I make spinach smoothies with avocado, cucumbers, apple, banana and apple juice. After 3 months my pigmentation is almost fully back around my eyes. Always give whatever you are trying 3 months as vitiligo seems to work in that cycle.

Diet is certainly a big part of the change, as well as reducing oxidative stress in your body. Eat more alkaline than acidic foods. And some sunlight exposure is not a risk as many say. The protopic with some sunlight exposure a day works best. Also, try to reduce your day to day stress levels.

A great book for more cure suggestions is 'My victory against Vitilio' by Xichao Mo. Don't believe it cannot be cured! With some patience and finding out what works for you, it is possible. This is what is working for me...

Borax, Anti-Parasitic Herbs

Editor's Choice

I wanted to share my experience in case it helps someone else. I used to hike a lot and was diagnosed with Lyme disease years ago. I never fully recovered, and later severe cellular damage was found on Spectracell tests. Then I recently discovered in a peer-reviewed paper I read that Morgellons, Lyme disease, and at least 5 other pathogens and parasites are all co-infecting and not commonly found in urine and stool tests, but in the blood, organs, deep tissue and difficult to detect or treat by traditional methods.

So I started using natural anti-parasitics (like tea tree and clove oil, neem soap, pine tar shampoo, drinking teas that are anti-parasitic from herbal plants I grow, etc.), but most helpful was simply bathing in a cup or two of natural Borax in very hot water, submerging the entire body except my eyes (and I put some drops of black tea in my eyes to kill anything there - the floaters you may see when you close your eyes which are gone now. It stings for a moment but is harmless). Since boron is naturally part of your cells you can't really have an allergic reaction, but initially the skin can turn red from the heat and from parasites dying so I drank a couple glasses of cold water afterwards.

I started improving immediately and over a period of months my vitiligo went away in addition to many of my other symptoms. I took photos as it progressed. I believe from what the journal paper found that since these parasites were observed to consume keratin cells and collagen cells (that make up Morgellon's fibers), as well as myelin sheath that surrounds nerve cells, maybe these parasites also consume the cells that produce color in our skin. Anyways, all of my symptoms continue to improve from having more energy to better skin, gray hair went away, migraine headaches are gone, I sleep better, seem to be less hungry, no more chemical sensitivity (as I believe the parasites were the ones reacting to the chemical that kills them), etc. The improvement is amazing and I can only assume it is because my cells are no longer being damaged or to a lesser degree - I will continue to use these treatments indefinitely at a maintenance dose, and hope others will find the same success as I did.

Coconut Oil

I have had small white patches on my hands and arms for several years, and over the last year they have gotten much larger. None of the home remedies I tried seemd to work, so I looked at the ingredients in the expensive herbal vitiligo cure formulas and noticed that they all contained the same base ingredient of coconut oil.

I purchased some virgin coconut oil and have been rubbing it into the white areas every morning and before bed every night for the past three weeks, and the areas are all turning pink and filling in.

Zinc

Vitiligo is a tough disease that is not easy to treat. It causes idiopathic (unknown cause) destruction of skin pigment cells called melanocytes and creates areas of skin with little or no melanin that look much lighter compared to the rest of the skin. This can affect a person's quality of life (QOL), self esteem and in some can instigate depression, so having an option that may help ameliorate vitiligo can be useful.

Here is a link to images of vitiligo. As you can see, it would be much nicer to not have vitiligo.

On that note, this fairly recent study suggests that oral zinc supplementation may have an impact on vitiligo. The following study abstract shows that zinc serum levels are lower than in people without vitiligo and suggests that zinc supplementation may be useful. They also show a negative correlation between between serum zinc level and vitiligo. So the lower the zinc level, the worse the vitiligo will be and the higher the zinc level, the less vitiligo was expressed:

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32648977/

This 2018 study also shows that zinc serum level is significantly lower in vitiligo, but goes even further and shows that increased age and duration of disease activity also results in even lower levels of zinc :

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5996627/

There are some who feel that vitiligo has oxidative stress as a major component that results in melanocyte destruction and zinc, although not normally thought of as an antioxidant, has antioxidant qualities as well as antiinflammatory qualities which is important because oxidative stress can also create inflammation. With that in mind, zinc does have some antioxidative and anti-inflammatory qualities as outlined in this study link:

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4429650/

Zinc functions as an antioxidant by different mechanisms.&text=Several studies have shown that, decreases oxidative stress (32).

The following study suggests that zinc may be useful in the treatment of vitiligo:

Oil of Oregano

Editor's Choice

I recommend "Oil of Oregano". I had my son use it for his vitiligo and it worked like a champ. It's been a year since, and there is no recurrance. It must be rubbed on the spot a number of times a day until it is gone. It will not happen overnight.. There must be consistency. My son used it about 4-5 times a day for 3 mths. This product is good to keep in your medicine cabinet for rashes, burns, bruises, abrasions ect. This is just a recommendation. Although I am a nurse, I am not a doctor.

Good health to you

For vitiligo: it can be reversed.

Look up Dr. Robert Morse-work on the Pituitary gland, detox is key, eating raw is key. Per Dr. Wallach clean up your diet, eliminate ALL gluten, take a combination of supplements to reverse any ailment. Dr. Bergman clean up diet, eat certain foods, detox, and do certain treatments like infrared sauna and others to reverse vitiligo. All three know that the body will heal it self given the right tools.

Heal from within and stop treating symptoms.

Microneedling for Pigment Loss From Suspected Vitiligo

So I have these spreading white patches on my hands, fingers and feet. I have some other issues due to sun exposure - so called basal cell carcinoma - which I have been successfully treating using topical antifungal treatments both natural and pharmaceutical.

Of course the first thing I thought was tinea versicolor on account of the prevalence of fungal overgrowth on sun exposed skin. And the first thing I tried was antifungal agents - coconut oil, oil of oregano, iodine and clotrimazole - but that was getting me nowhere slow.

One day recently I burned myself contacting a hot pan on one of the light skin patches. As the burn healed I noticed that the skin was healing in normal color, not in the bleached white.

Well, I'll be dipped in butter. I gave some thought to this, about how the injured dermis was healing with "normal" programming, not "defective" programming. The burn was small and not really serious, maybe a first degree burn. The blister was deep enough but not deep enough to really scar. Like a chicken pox blister but no deeper.

I had bought a microneedling kit a couple years ago to try out on my face but was never really happy with the process and results. But I thought about how the needles inflict tiny wounds on the skin and encourage the replacement of new better performing cells in the healing process.

I googled "Microneedling" as treatment for skin hypo- and hyper-pigmentation and by golly, it's used for both.

I test drove the 0.5mm needles on a few patches and within a week, there were dots of normal colored skin forming inside the bleached areas. I tested again with the 1mm needles - more of a rashy response from the skin but again, new color filling in.

I'm liking this very much. Will soon have the left side filled in will start on the right side soon.

Aloe Vera, Vitamin B-12, Ginko Biloba, folic Acid, C complex for vitiligo

My daughter is 17 years old and she had white spots on her elbows that seemed to be getting larger so we went to a dermotogist and she said it appeared to be vitiligo. My daughter was devastated when we left because the doctor prescribed a steriod cream and said pretty much if this doesn't work there isn't much else we can do. We came home and I lived on the computer every night searching for something that would help. The steriod cream irritated her skin after 2 weeks so we had to stop. At that time I put together my own regime and I will say it has been 5 months now and her skin is almost fully repigmented. Of course it will probably take a few more months but at least there is significant progress. I even called the doctor to try and tell them I would like her to know what we are doing so maybe she could tell other patients but she never called us back. So as they say every man for himself...I do believe it is a lack of certain vitamin. from what I have read it will not be cured but as long as you keep a watch on your body you can catch the spots when they start to reappear and continue the vitamins. My daughter takes a liquid Aloe Vera, Vitamin B-12, Ginko Biloba, folic Acid, C complex. She also rubs the aloe Vera plant on the spots 1 -2 times a day. I have read about the coconut oil and the copper as well but have not tried it. We figured if these things are working don't change it. We live in South Florida and I do want to locate a doctor that is very familiar with Vitilio and get their input. We do plan to discountine vitamins once she is fully repigmented, but this is why I would like to talk to a doctor.

Faye (UK),

Here is a recent abstract (2016) as well as a link to the full study about the use of low dose aspirin as a potential treatment for vitiligo that you can discuss with your doctor. This is a human study that showed effectiveness in the test subjects.

Ted has previously mentioned that taking aspirin dissolved in water can help to offset the stomach issues that can occur in some people who use aspirin for extended periods and this also may be worth mentioning to your doctor if he thinks this may be a possible treatment for your baby. Obviously it would have to be a very low dose for a 4 month old or perhaps your doctor can have a topical aspirin cream compounded for your baby for direct application to the depigmented areas. In any case it won't hurt to discuss this study with your doctor.......even if for only future use when your baby is older. It's always nice to have a viable alternate plan!

This is the abstract below and below that is the link to the full study.

Aspirin induces Nrf2-mediated transcriptional activation of haem oxygenase-1 in protection of human melanocytes from H2 O2 -induced oxidative stress.

Abstract

The removal of hydrogen peroxide (H2 O2 ) by antioxidants has been proven to be beneficial to patients with vitiligo. Aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid, ASA) has antioxidant activity and has great preventive and therapeutical effect in many oxidative stress-relevant diseases. Whether ASA can protect human melanocytes against oxidative stress needs to be further studied. Here, we investigated the potential protective effect and mechanisms of ASA against H2 O2 -induced oxidative injury in human melanocytes. Human melanocytes were pre-treated with different concentrations of ASA, followed by exposure to 1.0 mM H2 O2 . Cell apoptosis, intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels were evaluated by flow cytometry, and cell viability was determined by an Cell Counting Kit-8 assay. Total and phosphorylated NRF2 expression, NRF2 nuclear translocation and antioxidant response element (ARE) transcriptional activity were assayed with or without Nrf2-siRNA transfection to investigate the possible molecular mechanisms. Concomitant with an increase in viability, pre-treatment of 10-90 μmol/l ASA resulted in decreased rate of apoptotic cells, lactate dehydrogenase release and intracellular ROS levels in primary human melanocytes. Furthermore, we found ASA dramatically induced NRF2 nuclear translocation, enhanced ARE-luciferase activity, increased both p- NRF2 and total NRF2 levels, and induced the expression of haem oxygenase-1 (HO-1) in human melanocytes. In addition, knockdown of Nrf2 expression or pharmacological inhibition of HO-1 abrogated the protective action of ASA on melanocytes against H2 O2 -induced cytotoxicity and apoptosis. These results suggest that ASA protects human melanocytes against H2 O2 -induced oxidative stress via Nrf2-driven transcriptional activation of HO-1.

My daughter also has this condition and her doctor said it is tinea versicolor-a skin fungus. If the hair growing in the white patches still has color then the pigment isn't gone. We rub virgin coconut oil on the white patches and are now seeing normal skin color returning! Hope this helps.

I wanted fuller lips. Tried microneedling on my lips to make them swell. After like a month of doing it every other night or when I would remember my lips turned black. Never had black lips. I researched and microneedling speeds up melanin. Everyone had melanin some more than others. If you keep using the needling every day after a month it may darken.

Anti-Fungal Shampoo

Hello there... I use to live in Central Florida and caught what I believe was Vitiligo. I was told that it was a fungus that came from the ground and perhaps related to areas where there is a lot of livestock, such as horses. I used an anti-dandruff shampoo on it and it went away. I scrubbed the area really well and covered it with the anti-dandruff shampoo and let dry. It stung. I can't remember how long I did this for but it seemed to kill and the pigment returned. I hope that helps...

If you noticed repigmentation using vitamins and minerals (minerals are very important in this treatment), you cannot discountinue taking them ever. You can do small pauses every few months but never discontinue it. If you need supplements for repigmentation that means that your body is not extracting all the nutrients from your food or you are not eating properly. Any which way, you cannot leave the supplementation.

Coconut Oil and Diet

My daughter was diagnosed with vitiligo at the age of 2 1/2 and was also prescribed a steroid ointment. She has it on her left eyelid and some of her lashes are white. I tried the ointment for about 2 weeks and stopped. After doing tons of research, I have changed her diet to 80% gluten free, give her a natural multi-vitamin supplement and also have her wear a copper bracelet. I began rubbing 99% Aloe Vera on her vitiligo area in January 2014, but all I would notice was that her skin would get really red. So after more internet research, I began applying Extra Virgin Coconut Oil in the morning and at night in April of 2014. In mid June 2014, I noticed she already began to have a area of repigmentation on her eye. I'm continuing to rub the coconut oil on her eye 2-3 times a day. I think it has a lot to do with diet, eating more natural foods, but I really believe the coconut oil is causing the repigmenation.

I would suggest that you make pure almond milk for your baby. Buy organic almonds, blanch them in boiling hot water for a minute to remove the brown outer skin. Put them in the Blender with Purified/Distilled water. Add 1/4 tsp PURE Almond Oil (Organic unrefined for cooking) in with the Almonds. 1/2 cup of almonds to a quart of water. Blend it on liquify, STRAIN IT THROUGH THE SMALLEST SIEVE/STRAINER OR A COFFEE STRAINER. POUR IT INTO A STERILE BOTTLE, REFRIGERATE. HEAT ALMOND MILK FOR BABY LIKE YOU WOULD HEAT REGULAR FORMULA.

I raised my son on Almond Milk and juices because he had over 250 Allergies. The doctors did not know what to do for him..I would not give him the Soy Formula after I found out that it is not good for little boy babies. My son is an adult over 30 and is HEALTHY, THANK OUR LORD IN HEAVEN.

THIS SHOULD DO THE JOB. Babies need the oil to keep from being constipated.

Dietary Changes
Posted by Moli (Greenville, Sc) on 10/16/2015

You should be more concerned about Genetically Modified foods like GMO corn, wheat etc, not gluten as a stand alone factor. Gluten is a natural ingredient and people have been consuming gluten products since the dawn of time but only over the past decade gluten has become a serious issue. Why? Because people began to consume GMO foods which your body does not know how to process. This is where the problem is coming from. Genes from GMO plants have been modified and altered in the lab. It is nothing more but a Frankenstein food.

Also, keep the person effected by vitiligo away from vaccines. They contain a lot of heavy metals like aluminum and mercury.

My daughter is not genetically predisposed to vitiligo and was born pretty healthy. At three months of age I gave her Dtap vaccine after which she had a severe fever and a couple of weeks later I started noticing white patches appear. I consulted a holistic doctor and was told it was due to exposure to free radicals which her body was unable to fight due to the fact that at 3 months of age infants have practically no immune system.

Apply the same oil and go for a sunbath. That will also help you do the same thing. I was suffering from vitiligo and this has just gotten rid of it and I have studied about it so I will advise you to go with both the remedies and take the sunbath only at the affected area. Just for 10 mins daily and avoid having bicarbonate stuffs and include juices in your diet.

I am currently using coconut oil (organic cold pressed virgin), rubbing it all over my body after my morning & evening showers. Then I rub in oregano oil - in a base of olive oil. It must be diluted or you will burn your skin. The kind I use, doesn't hurt at all. Google it and I'm sure you'll find it. I bought mine at whole foods market.

Basically I rub in 4 drops on each arm, then 4 drops on each thigh, 4 drop on each calf, etc. It's been my 5th day now, and all these hard little red bumps are appearing. Whatever I got is being killed. At night I itch like crazy- so I know it's working. I'm excited! The white spots seem to be less white, I'm sure I'll see more improvement as I continue this.

I do the coconut oil and diluted oregano oil 2 times per day. I take 2 showers a day, so it works out for me.

Borax, Anti-Parasitic Herbs
Posted by Geri (Edmonton, Ab) on 11/15/2014

DJ, Thank you for the information about borax. For those looking for borax in the US and Canada, it's in the laundry section of your supermarket -- yes the 20 Mule Team stuff is 99.5% pure borax mineral (it even states this on the box). It isn't soap although it tastes a bit soapy because of it alkalinity). I have it at home because I'm successfully treating my mother's arthritis with it (but that's for another post). I suspected a pathogen in my 17 y.o. son's vitiligo because the start of his condition coincided with him hanging out with friends who also have it. And if coconut oil helps then it's likely because of its lauric acid content which has anti-fungal and anti-bacterial properties. His dermatologist prescribed Protopic which is about $90 per tube and linked to cancer (in some cases in as little as 21 days of starting it) so we're not interested in trying it. He also has KP which I wasn't aware might be a fungus. I am definitely going to try borax baths. After reading the Indian treatment taking 300 - 400 days I think that vitiligo like Leprosy might just take a long time to treat. Blessings, Geri

Borax, Anti-Parasitic Herbs
Posted by Frances (Texas, US) on 11/16/2014

Geri - If you suspect your son "caught" it from friends who have it, you might want to take him to another dermatologist because it may be tinea versicolor, a common skin yeast overgrowth, especially among teens. It's kind of like an athelete's foot type condition, and is easily cured by antifungal creams, or even just applying dandruff shampoo.

Your dermatologist should have done a test where they scrape some cells and look at them to determine whether it's yeast or vitiligo.

New herbal medicine found for Vitiligo or Leukoderma.

Good News, the research was done by the Department of Research and Defence Organization in India - DRDO. not by anyother pharma.

DRDO - is the top organization of the Indian Government

The product name is Lukoskin.

I am giving the link of the Indian National Daily

http://www.thehindu.com/todays-paper/tp-national/tp-tamilnadu/lukoskin-to-rescue-persons-living-with-vitiligo/article3608287.ece

The protocol of treatment is very lengthy taking internally and applying externally for 300 - 400 days.

It is even distributed free in some government Siddha and Ayurvedha Hospitals.

In south India, there are Unani, Siddha, Ayurveda Government Hopitals where the medicines and treatments are free, it is because of the Socialist Regime during the 1950's.

Hope this helps

Dear All,

Lukoskin I am taking for the past one month orally and also the ointment along with karbogi tablet and karisala tablet and the legiyum prescribed by sidha doctor. After applying the ointment I expose the white patches for sun light for 5 to 10 minutes depending upon the convenience.Within a month the white patch (2 yrs old) turned as normal and matching with the old skin finding difficult to locate the white patch for applying ointment. I do follow the advise on foods.

1.no to nonveg food, drinking water from the copper vessel, no citric food and by and large I follow the advise on food.

Really if you want a quick result do pranayama yoga along with lukoskin. For pranayamam yoga pl browse on youtube for pranayama in english + baba ramdev.

Lukoskin is the medicine developed by Department of Defence research organisation India based on the traditional Indian medicinal system. It's a Indian Govt organisation and the price is also very affordable.

I wish everybody to recover from Lucodermo completely.

Regards, Ravi.

Update: We are still taking the vitamins, however we have discontinued the Ginko Biloba as of now. Around April or so the freckling had stopped. We still continued the vitamins including the G.B. In the summer we had visited a homeopath doctor. He had some blood tests run and there were several food intolerances and a high yeast in her body. We have done a gut and liver detox. She is on probiotics and gluten, diary free diet. She is showing signs of repigmentation. It is a slow process but at least it is a sign. One of her spots before stating the vitamin regime was maybe the size of a half dollar. It had gone down to an oval shape maybe 3/4 of an inch. It is now maybe 1/2 inch wide to maybe a little over an inch long. I do believe certain people do not absorb vitamins the way we think. I would also like to have her do a test on how her body absorbs vitamins. B12 is something alot of people don't absorb. She takes B-12 5000 mcg-sublingual, c-1000 complex, Folic Acid 800mcg and Aloe Vera water.
