Hey first time posting but recently ran an experiment on myself and thought I would share my results.
I've noticed that there is a correlation between the white moons on my nails and my iron intake. I purposely ate high amounts of organic grass fed red meat in the form of lamb, beef, and deer. After about 3 weeks the white moons on my left hand completely disappeared except for the thumb. The right hand stayed pretty much the same.
After cutting out all red meat and switching to white meat, the white moons returned after about a week.
Is it possible that the white moons on our hands could indicate our iron status? Im assuming having white moons on all fingers nails is an indicator of better health.
Also, I noticed increasing my sea salt intake seems to really bring out the white moons on my finger nails.
Lastly, I've noticed that eating beef liver creates hyperactivity in my body. I went through a phase of eating beef liver to try and counteract the possible high iron content. Beef liver is a good source of copper so I thought it may help counteract the iron. Interestingly, chicken liver does not create the same degree of anxiousness or hyperactivity in my body but still.creates some low levels.
Again, figured Id put my experiment up here as it may be helpful. Would also like to know if anyone has noticed anything similar.
