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.
