<\/a>Whether it is a fleeting glance or a closer look, well-groomed hands are noticed from afar and reveal a great deal about your character and who you are. Smooth hands with carefully shaped nails are a pleasure to look at and a statement that you hold yourself to high standards. Beautiful hands speak of a healthy nature with excellent hygiene, and as we all know, nail art has become an art form in its own right these days, with the results getting better and better.<\/p>\nHair is more than a decorative feature or something that keeps your head warm \u2013 hair keeps an accurate record of our lifestyle, whether we like it or not. It shows what we eat, where and how we live, and what our habits are. It has the ability to capture within its physical and chemical structures everything we eat, drink or apply to it. If you smoke or drink, your hair knows. Since it grows by 0.3\u20130.5 mm a day, it can keep records for months, even years. It can be a valuable tool for assessing nutritional status and the level of heavy metals in the body.<\/p>\n
Each of us \/ with the exception of the bald \/ has around 100,000 hairs on our head. Their main component is a protein called keratin. Hair also contains fats, a pigment called melanin, vitamins, a small amount of zinc and other minerals. The water content of healthy hair is thought to be around 10\u201315%.<\/p>\n
Hair is most often damaged by a lack of nutrients<\/strong>, by chemical treatments \u2013 colouring, bleaching, perming \u2013 and by unsuitable shampoos. Excessive drying with hot air, as well as over-frequent brushing, are not particularly good for it either. Broadly speaking, the stiffer and less flexible our body is, the less calcium and the more magnesium we need.<\/strong> Nails<\/strong>, like skin and hair, reflect the mental and physical condition of our body. Small white spots on the nails indicate a deficiency of trace elements \u2013 magnesium, silicon, zinc and others \u2013 in the body, and these play a key role in the proper functioning of many tissues and organs.<\/p>\n About two thirds of women have problems with their nails \u2013 they are brittle, they split, they have spots and\/or ridges, and the cuticles at the base are dry and flaking. The causes are linked to a range of external factors, such as the use of chemical products, poor-quality powders and soaps, hot and salty water, low-quality nail varnishes, working environments involving chemical hazards and so on. In other cases these symptoms are an outward expression of internal factors and can be corrected by regularly taking suitable nutritional supplements.<\/p>\n The need to take minerals regularly in these cases is explained by the fact that the blood supply to the nails is weaker, which delays the appearance of any effect.<\/p>\n
\nThe appearance of the nails depends on the overall health of the body. For stronger nails, eat foods rich in magnesium, which help restore the nail’s natural balance and strengthen it at the very earliest stage of its growth. If your nails break or peel in layers, eat foods rich in calcium. Calcium and magnesium have opposite effects on the body’s structure.<\/strong><\/p>\n
\nA healthy cell has a high magnesium content and a low calcium content.<\/strong> The higher the calcium level and the lower the magnesium level in the extracellular fluid, the harder it becomes for cells to push out excess calcium. In theory, our biochemical age could be determined by the ratio of magnesium to calcium in our cells. Magnesium is the mineral of rejuvenation and protects against the calcification of organs and tissues that is characteristic of age-related degeneration of the body.<\/p>\nNails<\/strong><\/h3>\n
