Ladies (and gentlemen), be aware that if someone wishes to
kiss your hand, it may not just be a sign of reverence/love/regard/you’re the
Pope/[enter whatever drives your fancy here], but that your kisser may instead
be checking your health!
For the state of your organism (and whether or not you may
or may not be a suitable reproductive partner) may be painted in quick strokes
upon the surface of your nails!
Here are a few hints about what your nails may be telling
about your behind your back:
1. Beau’s Lines
– (a line that crosses the middle of the nail) can be caused by uncontrolled
diabetes, peripheral vascular disease, scarlet fever, measles, mumps and
pneumonia. Can also be a sign of zinc
deficiency.
2. Black Bands on
Nails – low adrenal function, chemotherapy or radiation reaction.
3. Bluish Nails –
could mean the body’s not getting enough oxygen, which could indicate an
infection in the lungs, or perhaps even some heart problems.
4. Brown Nails
– renal failure.
5. Cracked or
Split Nails – have been linked to thyroid disease, vitamin A and D
deficiency, poor circulation, hydrochloric acid deficiency, iron deficiency,
calcium deficiency, protein deficiency.
6. Dark Lines
Beneath the Nail – should be investigated immediately. They are sometimes caused by melanoma (skin
cancer).
7. Dark Nail Tips: Vitamin B-12 deficiency (or the person hasn’t

could be a sign of lack of oxygen which could be caused by various lung
diseases. It’s also associated with
inflammatory bowel, cardiovascular, liver diseases, and AIDS. Vitamin B-12 deficiency.
13. No Half-Moons
or Ridged Nails – Vitamin A deficiency, kidney disorder, protein
deficiency.

16. Poor Nail

17. Puffy Nail
Fold – the inflammation may result from lupus or another connective tissue
disorder.

19. Spoon Nails
– (concave, soft nails) sign of iron deficiency and anemia, or a liver
condition (hemochromatosis), heart disease, and hypothyroidism. Iron or zinc deficiency.
20. White Nails
with Darker Rims – may indicate liver problems, such as hepatitis.
21. White Spots

22. Wide Square

back the gloves into fashion?
