Thinning hair? Nails that peel and break?
Your body isn’t broken—it’s trying to tell you something.
Hair and nails are made of protein, require specific vitamins and minerals to grow strong, and are HIGHLY sensitive to:
→ Nutrient deficiencies
→ Poor digestion
→ Thyroid dysfunction
→ Hormone imbalances (especially during perimenopause)
When your body is under stress or lacking resources, it prioritizes your heart, brain, and liver over your hair and nails. That’s why brittle nails and hair loss are such clear red flags.
The good news is that by addressing the root causes you can actually fix it. 🌟
I broke down the 8 most common causes + what to do about each one. 👉🏼🔗Link in bio for the full post.
This is part of my Symptoms Decoded series where we’re translating what your body is trying to tell you.
