It can mean a thyroid problem.

Thanks I searched that it could be that as well. Does anyone know how much Kelp you should take to help under active thyroid glands? I read you should take kelp for 2 weeks than 2 weeks off. Is this crap'etry?

Thanks my raws

Take as much kelp as you want. Eat lots of coconut oil, and don't eat any cooked oil. Also, as Veganforlife recommends constantly for the thyroid, green smoothies.

My nails have plenty of white and they are really healthy and strong. I owe it all to raw food!

Davylp25 -

when did you last notice more white? I wonder because I haven't noticed a decrease...just never paid attention until about 2 years ago when I found just some on the thumbs. For all I know, I may never had much more than that. I have read it has to do with how yang you are....the more whites, the more yang. Meat eaters tend to have a lot of white area.

TaupeMan...

I have always noticed them. They were always medium, not too big, but they were only on the thumb index middle, each half moon gets a lil smaller. But Lately the (past month) they are like vanishing, almost gone. Been 100% 3 years, Everyone always says, drink green smoothies, and PRESTO, you shall be healed...Um that's been part of my lifestyle for years... So, I wonder why else it could be happening. Oh well, i will up my already good Kelp intake, and see what happens!

Davylp25, are you just using kelp in your smoothies? or are you mixing up the greens a bit? Spinach is my personal miracle cure
