Guest guest Posted April 29, 2010 Report Share Posted April 29, 2010 Yes my mother had ridges I am also over 60 years and not at all old, i am also developing these but my nails from a very long time get split in layers I keep taking calcarea , calcarea fluor and silicea cell salts to get healthy nails and bones.. Rubbing lemon on the nails is also go. vinegar has its own benefits on nails it works even on ingrown nails . so that can be tried. i haven't experienced these splits in some time now.

Guest guest Posted April 29, 2010 Report Share Posted April 29, 2010 Vertical ridges usually indicate malabsorption of proteins and minerals - mainly from hydrochloric acid defiency in the stomach. Horizontal ridges usually are a deficiency in iron. If the nail (or the nail bed benath it) is colorless (white - not pinkish) that can be a B12 deficiency.--- On Wed, 4/28/10, Mridula Sharma <mridula49 wrote: Mridula Sharma <mridula49Re: Vertical Nail Split Date: Wednesday, April 28, 2010, 11:32 PM Yes my mother had ridges I am also over 60 years and not at all old, i am also developing these but my nails from a very long time get split in layers I keep taking calcarea , calcarea fluor and silicea cell salts to get healthy nails and bones..

Guest guest Posted April 29, 2010 Report Share Posted April 29, 2010 Thank you so much Tony. This malabsorption is showing in every symptom. even vitamin b deficiency is showing. i try to take it from food but some where i am not doing what s required to be done. My fight hand thumb and the right big toe were in bad shape. the cuticle around them were painful and in my thumb the colour texture and size all had changed. Now it seems to be in a much better condition only a small blurb remains. the pain is also much reduced. thank you once again. if you have more information please pass it on.

Guest guest Posted April 29, 2010 Report Share Posted April 29, 2010 I have vertical ridges and no longer have splits/weak nails when following the guidelines of RBTI--Reams Biological Theory of Ionization. Dr. Reams (died in the mid-80's) said that low calcium--specifically Calcium Lactate--deficiency was responsible.
