Hi Shirley, Since we are all genetically different, with varying lifestyles and belief systems so it would be hard for me to totally accept that finger nail ridges could be precisely, exclusively traced to one given cause, lack of or overabundance of any single, particular nutrient.
Such things appear to me more a matter of "cascading" cause and effects that are relative to other complex bodily functions . For instance, if one is lacking in hydrochloric acid...it is usually the result of something else that is out of balance as well within the digestive system, so just adding HC, Zinc or lessening our stress/worry factors as individually remedies may not fix the problems entirely or permanently. We function as systemic beings with a complex physiology. If we are lacking in say, Zinc or HC, how and why does this occur. Other than just replacing the nutrient how do we become aware of improving and/or eliminating the causes and thus the deficiency.

Have read this in more than one place. pj Carol Ann _______________________________ The Pessimist complains about the Wind; The Optimist expects it to change; The Realist adjusts the Sails. - The world needs more sailors. --------------------------------- Relax.
