The Claim
In rats, gray hair may be associated with reduced intake of vitamins that accompany diminished consumption of vitamin-poor milk.
What the research says
Supports is higher
Support is ahead, but a single strong opposing study can change this.
These are independent scores, not a percentage. Higher-grade studies count more, so a single strong opposing study can outweigh several weaker ones.
In rats, if they drink less of the kind of milk that doesn’t have many vitamins, their fur might turn gray — it’s like their body isn’t getting enough good stuff, and that could show up as gray hair.

What the research says
1 studyStudy: Non-Identity of Gray Hair Produced by Mineral Deficiency and Vitamin Deficiency
The study found that when rats drink less of a low-vitamin milk, their fur turns gray — and when they get more vitamins, it turns black again. This matches the claim that less vitamin-poor milk causes gray hair.
