How Skin Pigment is MadeThe body's pigment production process, melanin synthesis, is like a factory. Various vitamins, minerals, and enzymes are needed during different phases on the "assembly line." If an ingredient is missing or the body cannot make it, then the finished product, pigment, cannot be made. Melanin is the pigment in the body that colors skin and hair. It is produced in cells called melanocytes. Melanocytes are located in the top skin layer. |

Scientific Studies on Vitamins and VitiligoNutritional deficiencies, both in animals and in humans, are known to alter melanin pigmentation. Copper and zinc deficiencies have been reported to induce hypopigmentation in various animals. Hypopigmentation of the skin and hair results from copper deficiency in humans; the depigmentation associated with chronic excessive molybdenum intake is related to a decreased storage of copper in the liver. |
