I am suffering from vitiligo. Some days ago I asked a question I.e, is plasmapheresis useful in vitiligo. The thing is even in Ayurveda it is said that it is caused due to impurities in blood. And as I know plasmapheresis cleans our blood. So why is it not helpful. It is possible that it is not permanent but I can go for plasmapheresis every month if required (after all it is assumed that blood again becomes impure)

Thanks for contacting with your health concern 1. As vitiligo is an autoimmune disorder [AI] thus exclude other AI like thyroid-alopecia-lupus. 2. Management. Copper Water to be taken regularly. Lemon, oranges, mangoes, grapes, apple, papaya, sugarcane, guava, to be avoided strictly. No use of perfume, Deo, or agarbatti should be there. Soyabean, Methi are rich sources of copper, so should be eaten in more amount. Bottle gourd to be eaten daily. Mix white onion seeds powder in white onion juice and apply it for 3 months. 3. For dietary regime and medicine package useful in vitiligo kindly consult me Lybrate itself.
