Melanin has many functions. Its is comprised of DENSE minerals, vitamins, and nutrients.
These minerals, nutrients and vitamins assist in making everyday healthy living possible for our cells and whole body. The more melanin a person has- the potential for higher health exists. The less Melanin the less potential for having a healthy existence.
Melanin is not just about skin color. Internal Melanin is also at work… and plays a large role in overall health. 
However, processed foods are making this more difficult to do. Processed foods- strip out the minerals, vitamins, and nutrients for proper regeneration.
With that said to have ACTIVE MELANIN a person must incorporate foods that prevent the absorption or excess flushing of minerals and vitamins. One of these MAJOR substance to avoid is SOY. SOY is an ANTI-NUTRIENT. soybeans are also very high in phytates, substances that bind minerals and reduce their absorption.
SOY is not to be consumed (unless fermented which reduces the phytatic acid)- but you will rarely find this in a public grocery store or in any mainstream products.
REFINED SOY will rob the body of calcium, magnesium, copper, and zinc…
These are substances that are key to MELANIN. Also Soy has been known to interfere with protein digestion which can contribute to a fatty pancreas and pancreatic disorders.
It also contributes to altering hormone levels in the body. Linked to increased estrogen production.
Many products are being created with SOY -grocery bread, Milk, Lotions, Shampoos, Shaving Cream, and Soaps. SOY is an enemy to MELANIN. AVOID and always read your labels. ALWAYS!
Some products do not even list SOY as a part of the ingredients, so be aware of what you are eating and what it looks like and how it makes you feel. When in doubt Avoid. We will provide some SOY-FREE alternatives on our FB page so please visit us there too.
