Thin toe nails with ridging Posted: 02-21-08 10:00am
For three years now, all my toe nails are
becoming thinner and softer and have
horizontal ridging. I don't have a fungal
infection and blood tests for B12,
calcium, thyroid, hormones, liver and the
other usual tests have all come back
normal. My finger nails have shown no
similar change. Apart from osteo-arthritis
which I've had since my 20's, I'm very
healthy and am not taking any medication.
I'm aged 46.

Omega oils are helpful for healthy nails.
Vitamins H and B7 can also help strengthen
both hair and nails. Yo can also look
into the effects of Cod Liver Oil,
Alfalfa, Burdock, and Yellow Dock.
