Greetings! Thanks for the query.
As you have rightly worked out genetics plays an important role in premature greying of hair. Apart from balanced and healthy diet you can try commercially available product containing "Melitane" (Altris 5 Scalp Lotion). This chemical stimulate pigment (melanin) producing cells (melanocytes) in the hair follicle and may reverse/ reduce greying of hair. You need to use this product for 6 months to see the result. It can used between 8-30 years of age.
