The half-moon marks on your nails reflect your health

We all have half-moon marks on our nails, which are closely related to the health of the body, especially for female friends. If there are very few half-moon marks on your nails, it means that your body is in a sub-healthy state, and you are prone to qi and blood deficiency and malnutrition.

1. What is a half-moon mark?

A white arc-shaped mark appears at the bottom fifth of the nail. This is the half-moon mark, also known as the little sun. The half-moon mark on the nails is the boundary between the yin and yang meridians and represents the essence of the human body, so it is also called the "health circle."

What is a half-moon mark?

The development of the half-moon marks is not only related to daily nutrition, environment, and physical fitness, but also when the body's digestion and absorption function deteriorates, the half-moon marks will become blurred, reduced, or even disappear. Therefore, the condition of the half-moon marks can well show information about the health status of the human body.

2. The role of the half-moon mark

According to Chinese medicine, if qi is not consumed, it returns to the liver and becomes blood; if blood is not consumed, it returns to the kidney and becomes essence; if essence is not consumed, it returns to the bones and becomes marrow. This is where the essence comes from. The essence is also where the vital energy resides. The half-moon mark is very important because it displays the state of vital energy.

There is a saying in Traditional Chinese Medicine: A person with sufficient essence is strong, a person with weak essence is sick, a person with little essence is old, and a person with exhausted essence is dead. This shows the importance of essence and vitality. In daily life, timely restoration of energy and maintenance of the body are beneficial to our health. When energy is low, the first important supplement is protein.

Chinese medicine says: "If you lack essence, supplement it with flavor." This means you need to supplement with protein. It is better to have neutral high-quality protein, such as milk, eggs, beans, fish, black foods (black foods nourish the kidneys), seed foods, embryonic foods, etc. After persisting for a month, you can see the appearance of half-moon marks, indicating that your energy has been restored to a certain extent.
