Leukonychia (white spots)

"White spots on the nails are very common and usually recur. These small, semi-circular spots result from injury to the base (matrix) of the nail, where nail cells are produced or imperfections when the nail is formed. As the nail grows these blemishes are pushed outward. Frequently the culprit of these spots is careless manicuring. These spots are not cause for concern and will eventually grow out.

Another leading cause of these white specs is a diet that is deficient in zinc. You could try taking a zinc supplement and see if this clears up the problem."

you have to stop those careless manicuring, and I guess drinking milk isn't gonna help.

i've had like 5 doctors tell me i'm not drinking enough milk... and when i do drink milk, it goes away...

haha i found the pic on the website I got the information from

whatever, mal-nutrition! :sick:

the reason why drinking milk might help is because milk provides something like 11% of the recommended daily allowance-- which could be just enough zinc to prevent a deficiency.

I hope not. I'll have to get back to you on that one. Further inspection is required.
