Your nails are a reflection of your grooming habits and lifestyle. But did you know that your nails may also reveal information about your health? It’s true. Alterations in the appearance, shape, and texture of your nails can indicate an underlying health condition. For example: * Thickened nails may be a sign of psoriasis. * Red nail beds may be a symptom of diabetes. * Pale nail beds can indicate anemia. * White nails have been associated with kidney disease. to prevent these diseases our diet is always the best source of vitamins and minerals,so if you want to strengthen your nails naturally, try eating more biotin-rich nuts (peanuts, filberts, cashews, and almonds), eggs, soybeans, tomatoes, sweet potatoes, fish (haddock and salmon), or vegetables like chard or carrots. But if your nails are still brittle, investigate a supplement with your doctor. \ from the excerpts of realage.com/ct/tips/5111
