I’ve heard that hair going grey is a cancer mitigation strategy.

Do you have any additional info on this?

I am not saying you are wrong, I don’t know, but I know that hair becomes grey due to decreased melanin production in your hair follicles as people age.

So the natural conclusion based on what you are saying (assuming it is true) is that the decrease of melanin production in hair follicles reduces the risk of cancer. How so?

The latest research indicates that the greying occurs when certain migrating cells get stuck in the hair follicle. This also suggests greying can be reversible, which I know from experience as I have plucked hairs which are grey at the tip and colored at the base.
