Have you ever wondered what does the moon-like shape on your fingernail indicate? You’ll be surprised to know that it has nothing to do with palmistry or astrology, but with health!
The fingernails can indicate deficiencies, weaknesses and toxins within the body. The most common sign that you will notice is the half-moon (crescent) shape that is formed at the bed of your fingernails. This is called lunula (small moon in Latin) and is most visible on the thumb. It is also present on the fingers, but may get partially or at times fully covered by the surrounding layer of skin.
A well formed lunula indicates good health of a person.
<B>Ideal colour of lunula: Ivory (the whiter the better)
Ideal size: In a healthy person, it covers one-fifth of the nail
Colour of healthy nails: Pink, with a smooth surface
Therefore, this half-moon shape on your nails can reveal a lot about your health.
Check your fingers and see what it reveals about your own condition!?
