Animal Products

Animal products can feature multiple nutrients that assist in melanin production. One important mineral is copper, which is needed in very small amounts but is still considered a nutrient essential to the body. Copper helps produce melanin as well as elastin, a protein that gives your skin its elasticity. Copper can be found in oysters, organ meats -- particularly the liver -- and shellfish, according to the University of Maryland Medical Center. Other animal products containing nutrients lending themselves to melanin production include chicken, turkey and fish, as well as dairy products like cheese and milk.

Soy and Seeds

Soy is beneficial to your body's melanin production thanks to a nutrient called tyrosine. This is an amino acid that is used to build proteins in your body. It can be found in many other natural sources of protein, particularly soy products. You can also find tyrosine in pumpkin seeds, lima beans and sesame seeds.

Other Foods

Many other foods contain small amounts of tyrosine, copper or other nutrients that can help your body's melanin production. Consider eating nuts and legumes, including almonds, peanuts and dried beans. Dark leafy vegetables can be helpful, as can avocados, bananas, whole grain products and chocolate.
