Our bodies constantly communicate information about our health. They send signals to alert us when there are issues. Here are eight bodily indicators you should be aware of:
1. Yellowing Skin Jaundice, which causes yellow skin and eyes, can indicate liver disease. This occurs when the body cannot eliminate excess bilirubin. 2. White Dots on Nails – White flecks on your nails might be accidental, but persistent spots can signal a deficiency in zinc, calcium, or protein. 3. Thin Lips – Dehydration can cause blisters or cracks on your lips. Alternatively, you might be using the wrong lipstick. 4. Rounded Nails – Clubbed fingernails can indicate chronic lung disease or digestive issues, causing nails to grow and bend downward.5. Lip Sores – Mouth ulcers can result from hormonal changes or stress. A lack of B-12 can also cause sores.
