June 30, 2010 by Adria Ali 1 Comment

Your body is the window to your health.  It’s important to observe changes in your body and seek out answers to prevent health problems.  Many women and men notice changes in their nails.  Interestingly enough, your nails can say A LOT about your health.  Here’s a quick guide that will help give you some insight into your health.

What Your Nails Say About Your Health:
10 Possible Signs of Serious Conditions
Nail Appearance Associated Condition
White nails Liver diseases, such as hepatitis
Yellowish, thickened, slow-growing nails Lung diseases, such as emphysema
Yellowish nails with a slight blush at the base Diabetes
Half-white, half-pink nails Kidney disease
Red nail beds Heart disease
Pale or white nail beds Anemia
Pitting or rippling of the nail surface Psoriasis or inflammatory arthritis

    Very interesting...I found myself looking at my nails while sitting at work waiting for a call to come in....and I was trying to think back about how my daughter, Ty's nails were looking when she was on dialysis...I dont think I notice any difference, but since she's had the kidney transplant last year, August 18th, thanks goodness, and she doing so well it does'nt matter anymore, but I will keep a eye on them just to make sure....Thanks Adria for the post!
