Food and vitiligo are not related. It is a genetic disease which can be controlled with medicines. You can use a moisturizer because if you have dry skin then you might get itching and the vitiligo might increase if it is active. Use a moisturizer daily after bath. It takes time for the color in the patches to come back.
