Your nails are yellow tinted near the tips. You have a bile obstruction or otherwise are not consuming enough fat. This can be cleared up with the aid of bile salts. Your nails have vertical ridges, which indicates low protein, a high carb diet, or low b12/iron.

That white dot underneath your fingernail indicates a Zinc deficiency in conjunction with a high-carb diet. Where it is indicates that you've been deficient at around 5 months ago.
The lack of the white "luna" can indicate one of three things. Liver cirrhosis, a hear problem, or diabetes. You have the beginnings of paronychia at your cuticles, which indicates hypothyroidism, usually combined with a protein deficiency (specifically tyrosine)
The yellow might be from like 5kg of oranges I peeled today
Also yeah, low protein, I'm on that Easter fasting period, 5 more weeks. I'll survive, hoping my body learns to reuse useless tissue.
How did you learn this? Any books you can recommend on the topic? I want to learn. This is very interesting. Also I have vertical lines on my nails and am indeed iron deficient.

Lack of luna in pinky, you have liver cirrhosis, a heart problem, or diabetes (the most common is liver cirrhosis, don't worry).
You have paronychia at your cuticles, it's even swollen. You have hypothyroidism and possibly are protein (tyrosine) deficient. There are white spots under your thumb's nail with white vertical streaks. You have a mild selenium deficiency, which can cause hypothyroid conditions (impaired ability to turn T4 to T3).

Is this the nail divination general?
You have no luna on any of your fingers, indicating severe diabetes, cirrhosis, or heart disease. Your nailbeds are tinted white, which indicates low protein, kidney or liver failure, and/or the use of heavy antibiotics for a sustained period of time. You have the beginnings of paronychia on your cuticles, which indicates hypothyroidism, usually combined with a tyrosine(protein) deficiency.
>You have no luna on any of your fingers, indicating severe diabetes, cirrhosis, or heart disease.
nta but I've never seen the luna on any of my fingers yet I had a full physical + bloodwork done 2 months ago saying I had no illnesses or any issues like the ones you mentioned. So what does that mean? Are you just another entertaining gypsy finger reader passing through?
It means that a full physical + bloodwork isn't as accurate as you're giving it credit for. You'd need specific tests done to actually figure out any underlying causes for this symptom, of which cirrhosis is the most common, followed by diabetes.
>Unfortunately for you, lack of luna is a better tell of liver cirrhosis, diabetes, or heart disease than some vague tests that only check if you're already too far gone. There are, of course, tests you can use to identify these issues, such as an ultrasound for your liver, CAC testing for your heart (or a coronary angiogram), or a fasting insulin test for potential diabetes without HbA1c needing to necessarily be in the "diabetes" range (especially important for endurance athletes who "carbo-load" and burn off the sugar fast), but these can cost money. I'm just a guy who trusts in fingernails, okay?
>nuh uh tests are inaccurate >B-B-B-BUT MY FINGERNAIL FORTUNE TELLING IS ACCURATE AND TRUE, MMMMKAY???
Yeah, taking what I'm saying, throwing it in the trash, and strawmanning me will really cure your undiagnosed diabetes
Keep strawmanning me, if it makes you feel better. You should know that healthy people have all of their lunulae, so obviously not everyone in the world has poor nutrition. It takes 6 months for the nail to grow, on average, from the cuticle to the tip. No luna means you're currently afflicted.

That white dot underneath your fingernail indicates a Zinc deficiency in conjunction with a high-carb diet. Where it is indicates that you've been deficient at around 5 months ago.
The lack of the white "luna" can indicate one of three things. Liver cirrhosis, a hear problem, or diabetes. You have the beginnings of paronychia at your cuticles, which indicates hypothyroidism, usually combined with a protein deficiency (specifically tyrosine)
No luna on some of your fingers indicates that you have liver cirrhosis, a heart problem, or diabetes, You have paronychia on your cuticles, indicating hypothyroidism, usually combined with a protein deficiency, specifically tyrosine. Your nailbeds have a very slight blue hue to them, indicating a mild b1 deficiency (caused by low oxygen). You have white spots, indicating a zinc deficiency with a high carb diet, and the spots and their locations indicate you've sustained this deficiency regularly over the course of the last half of a year. You have a thick horizontal white line, indicating that you have low niacin (b3).
My nails are cut now but when the nail on each pointer finger grows long it grows in a downward curve shape. The other nails do not do this when they are long. The curve gets more exaggerated as it gets longer. I let my nails get really long so I’m not talking about a little bit of length but a lot. Does it mean anything?
Spooned or Clubbed nails (the nail curving unnatural) are a sign of liver or kidney issues. Usually an oxygen delivery issue is paired with this, probably iron deficient.
What is an actual way to stop being iron deficient? Those pills don’t work for me just constipate me. I have those vertical lines on my fingernails along with the curving. I’ve done an iron transfusion but my insurance only covered one per year. It wasn’t enough.
You have paronychia on your cuticles, which indicates that you have hypothyroidism and most likely a protein (specifically tyrosine) deficiency. Lack of luna near the cuticle indicates You have pronounced vertical ridges down your nails, which indicates low protein, a high carb diet, or low b12/iron. You have visibly brittle nails, which indicates low biotine/folate, which can be found plentifully in leafy greens or liver. Some of your nailbeds are white, which indicates kidney or liver failure, low protein, and/or the use of heavy antibiotics for a sustained period of time (at least half of a year).
Mild white streaks near the cuticle indicate that you've recently begun to have a selenium deficiency, which may cause hypothyroid symptoms.
Oh wise one, what does my lack of luna tell you? I am an endurance athlete with no signs of diabetes or heart issues, and have good liver markers on bloodwork.
Unfortunately for you, lack of luna is a better tell of liver cirrhosis, diabetes, or heart disease than some vague tests that only check if you're already too far gone.

I'm just a guy who trusts in fingernails, okay?
Lack of luna: liver cirrhosis, heart problems, or diabetes. White nailbeds indicate low protein, kidney/liver failure, or a sustained period of taking antibiotics for at least the last 6 months. It might be a reflection, but if it's a white dot under your nail on your pinky near the cuticle, that's a very recent zinc deficiency. There are thin, white, horizontal lines near the tip of your pinky, indicating you might have had a calcium deficiency at some point 5-6 months ago, and it would be wise to take more calcium.
that white part on the bottom unironically is low protein/zinc/etc, i used to have it when i was a mostly grainbrain, until i started eating mostly animal products. i have super clean and smooth fingernails now, he sounds like hes memeing but its not, you can look it up.
Lack of luna entirely means that you likely have long-term, severe, or chronic form of cirrhosis, heart problems, or diabetes. I see consistent pin-prick sized white dots underneath the nails, indicating a zinc deficiency around 3 months ago. You have white nailbeds, which could mean you have low protein, kidney/liver failure, or have recently been on an antibiotic for the last 6 months. You have a vertical discoloration in the center of your fingernails, indicating low protein, vitamin D, or b12. Vertical white lines like that may indicate a selenium deficiency. Pronounced vertical ridges indicate low b12 or iron.

Heme iron is better absorbed. You can get it from meat, especially red meat. Dealer's choice.
>Lack of luna entirely means that you
They are called lunula. And he likely doesn't have any because he has short nails so they are likely hidden under the skin at the proximal nail fold.
No lunula means that there might be anemia/b12/folate/iron issues. Or it could be a sign of clinical depression (according to chinese study). People on dialysis often have missing lunula likely due to vitamin and mineral imbalances caused by poorly functioning kidneys. Missing lunula are also found on completely healthy people, for example in this case they are likely obscured by skin covering the nail bed. It is noted that about 50% of newborn babies do not have lunula on most fingers. Typically the thumb is the main finger that have visible lunula due to the absolute size of the thumb nail and it's anatomy which makes the nail matrix more easily visible.
>I’m starving >I’m skelly >what gives?
Fat isn’t just shoved under your skin, it needs to be stored in fat cells connected to your vascular system and stuff. It takes protein to build that infrastructure. If you don’t eat protein, it can’t get built.
Most of your nails lack a luna, indicating cirrhosis, heart problems, or diabetes. You have paronychia , which indicates hypothyroidism, and it's usually paired with a tyrosine(protein) deficiency.

i dont have any symptoms of any of these >Paronychia
image results for this all show swollen or red fingers, mine just have very tiny scabs like you see, no swelling at all. its also been like this forever and paronychia is apparently relatively short term. could it still be that? >tyrosine deficiency
is this even possible when i eat a steak for breakfast every morning? >could indicate low protein, kidney/liver failure, or that you were recently on antibiotics for the last 6 months
definitely not low protein or antibiotics, and surely if it was kidney/liver failure, i would be getting atleast another symptom except white nailbeds, right? >nails are visibly brittle
if you mean how the tips are rough, thats just because i trim them by biting them
Beginning stages of nail clubbing. Could be an iron deficiency. Lack of luna indicates liver cirrhosis, heart problems, or diabetes. Notice his nails are mostly pink with little whiteness, there are no vertical ridges, and he's unashamed of his nail length. This guy's nails are rather healthy. White horizontal mark of moderate thickness near middle of thumb indicates B3 deficiency. You have paronychia, which indicates that you have hypothyroidism and possibly a tyrosine(protein) deficiency. The yellowing of the nails is due to fungus, but, as it has not gone deeper under the fingernail, it should be fine, but you should probably clean it out, especially your thumb's nail.
>iron deficiency
would explain mild orthostatic hypotension, has been mostly corrected with vitamin K mega dosing - I'm guessing absorption issues would be a baseline here? >moderate b3 deficiency
Correct. Been monitoring and trying to correct, chronic. >tyrosine deficiency
Shouldn't be an issue; other aminos have been short (tryptophan, serine) relatively speaking. >fungus
I think it might be the orange I ate this morning mate. But my nails are dirty, that's what I get for working on cars.
Hi mate, I'm also curious. I heard long time ago that the white dots are zinc deficiency, but that can't be it, as I eat shitloads of eggs with yolks almost daily and also have a zinc supplement daily for couple of years now. I'm on mostly animal-based products low-carb diet (but sometimes indulge in pizza or whatever)
Hi, yes, the dot indicates that you eat a high carb diet and have low zinc. If what you're saying is true, is it true for the last 6 months? That's roughly how long it takes for a nail to grow from the cuticle to the tip. The placement of the dot usually coincides to when you ate a large quantity of carbohydrates while being zinc deficient. Somewhere around 3 months ago
Keep strawmanning me, if it makes you feel better. You should know that healthy people have all of their lunulae, so obviously not everyone in the world has poor nutrition. It takes 6 months for the nail to grow, on average, from the cuticle to the tip. No luna means you're currently afflicted.
Those are simply the results of my examinations, if you don't like them, that's fine. The lack of luna, especially when paired with white nailbeds, is a strong indicator of metabolic diseases and shouldn't be overlooked, even if you're not formally diagnosed.
You're missing a luna, it's over.
You have paronychia around the cuticles, indicating hypothyroidism, typically paired with a tyrosine (protein) deficiency ALTHOUGH IT SHOULD BE SAID THAT OTHER NUTRIENT DEFICIENCES CAN CAUSE THIS, TOO, ESPECIALLY IODINE. You got a dot near the tip of your middle finger, possibly means you were zinc deficient and ate high-carb 5-6 months ago. You have visibly brittle nails, indicating a folate/biotin deficiency (which you can get more of with leafy green or liver) Yeah, I think that's it. I'm tired.

>I eat whole loaves of bread a day, get almost no protein, and I’m skelly. What gives?
Does IST really need the basics of CI:CO explained to them again? Being thin is better than being fat but being thin is not equivalent to being healthy. You could eat nothing but 1500 calories of whiskey a day and be thin. Would you be healthy?
Also, to those saying >But I don't have a xinc deficiency, I eat plenty of zinc!
You aren't absorbing it. A single corn tortilla completely stops all zinc from being absorbed with it. There are many foods like this and any number of combinations can cause a deficiency. I'm telling you what you have, not how you got it.
This study associates missing lunula with depression.
Do you guy with missing lunula (not counting the thumbs) have any kind of depression?
I've have mild to moderate depression and only have lunula on my thumbs if that matters.
I wonder what the association is.
Does some aspect of someone's lifestyle cause the lunula to disappear which also causes depression, like some vitamin deficiency.
Of do depressed people live a certain bad lifestyle that causes them to become depressed, like not eating right and exercising which causes a deficiency which causes the lunula to disappear and also causes depression
Or does the depression itself independently cause some kind of stress response in the body that leads to the lunula disappearing, like maybe cortisol being high all the time makes them go away.
Post your fingernails. I've learned how to tell if someone is nutrient depleted.
Not OP but here ya go

FORTUNE TELLER
I SUMMON YOU
israeli hand
Based on your gay far sausage fingers, you are a homosexual who enjoys cinnamon toast crunch and giving dudes hand jobs.
Nice looking loaf op
>I eat whole loaves of bread a day, get almost no protein, and I’m skelly. What gives?
Does IST really need the basics of CI:CO explained to them again? Being thin is better than being fat but being thin is not equivalent to being healthy. You could eat nothing but 1500 calories of whiskey a day and be thin. Would you be healthy?
Also, to those saying
>But I don't have a xinc deficiency, I eat plenty of zinc!
You aren't absorbing it. A single corn tortilla completely stops all zinc from being absorbed with it. There are many foods like this and any number of combinations can cause a deficiency. I'm telling you what you have, not how you got it.
How many days do I got left fortune teller?
Is this the first hand with all lunulae present in this thread? Figures, this is IST.
No, there's one or two others. The ones without keep seething.
explain? should i go to a doctor?
>I eat whole loaves of bread a day, get almost no protein
Impossible. Look up the protein of wheat flour.
This study associates missing lunula with depression.
Do you guy with missing lunula (not counting the thumbs) have any kind of depression?
I've have mild to moderate depression and only have lunula on my thumbs if that matters.
>(not counting the thumbs)
actually count the thumbs as well, don't count the pinkie finger
I wonder what the association is.
Does some aspect of someone's lifestyle cause the lunula to disappear which also causes depression, like some vitamin deficiency.
Of do depressed people live a certain bad lifestyle that causes them to become depressed, like not eating right and exercising which causes a deficiency which causes the lunula to disappear and also causes depression
Or does the depression itself independently cause some kind of stress response in the body that leads to the lunula disappearing, like maybe cortisol being high all the time makes them go away.
Bread is the white mans carb. I feel bad for americans
We don't even think about you
