Friends,
I'm convinced that the only way to counter attack vitiligo is following a Functional Treatment (FT).
I haven't seen a case yet that a FT didn't improve vitiligo. Stop spreading is the main goal. Re-pigmentation comes later.
FT takes in consideration 3 approaches, as follows:
1- Basic Preemptive Actions
Diet (gluten-free), vitamins, minerals, trace nutrients, anti-oxidants, anti-fungals, probiotics and Omega 3.
2-Basic Corrective Actions
UVB-NB, pseudocatalase cream, and protopic (on face).
Oral mini-pulse therapy: Sometimes it's interesting and effective to start a OMP therapy together with FT, however a dermatologist should be consulted. (More details at https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8225724 .)
3-Generic Actions
Life style change (get rid of people that make you feel bad; try to be part of a group, i.e. someone important and relevant. Find another group if necessary).
Stop physical traumas: friction, hits, sun burns, scratches etc.
*It's a pity, but martial art is not a good option because of the constant traumas it causes.
*Yoga is great (thanks to Mark's suggestion)
Conclusion:
1-There are very few cases that a cream by itself re-pigmented vitiligo patches. They are exceptions.
2-It's hard to believe that someone might achieve cure or even stability without a FT support.
3-When isolated corrective actions are taken, pigmentation might appear, but followed by later de-pigmentation.
I'm sure that the main rule, that works to most people, with rare exceptions, is following a Functional Treatment. More details at: www.vitiligomap.com/protocol.html
