You are indeed lucky if you have strong, beautiful, and healthy nails. But maintaining them in their correct state is very important. The condition of your nails reflects the quality of production of tissue in your body. Nails are the waste products of the bones. An improper diet can lead to nail disorders like split nails, flaky nails, discoloring of the nail bed, and vertical ridges.
For promoting the healthy growth of the nails, one can use sesame seeds, sunflower seeds, dried fruits, dairy fruits, nuts, and dark leafy green vegetables. For proper nourishment of the nails, one can make a nail cream from honey and almond oil. This can be made and left overnight before using it on your nails for healthy nails.
You can also make a nail cream by mixing a teaspoon of egg yolk, avocado pulp, a pinch of salt, and honey into a smooth and even paste. Take a small amount of this nail cream and then massage the cuticles and the surrounding skin of the nails. Keep for half an hour and then wash it off. This can be applied at night time as your hands will not be exposed to water at night.
