Nail Growth Reveals Your Biological Age and Health, Say Experts

  • Nail growth rate indicates the activity of body systems and can be a 'biological age' indicator.
  • Rapid nail growth suggests proper blood circulation and nutrient supply to major organs like the heart, liver, kidneys, and lungs.
  • Harvard aging researcher David Sinclair supports the idea that fast-growing nails signify well-functioning internal systems.
  • Nail growth naturally slows after age thirty due to decreased blood circulation, but active growth at older ages signals good health.
  • Nail color, shine, texture, and issues like thinning or ridges can indicate nutritional deficiencies (iron, zinc, vitamins) or lifestyle factors.

Why It Matters: Nail growth and health offer crucial insights into your biological age and overall bodily well-being.
