Re: [Everything doTERRA] Pitted Nails

I've had that too, if you're talking about ridges in them, and it's actually a Vit D deficiency. Taking Vit D helps to absorb calcium as well, since it doesn't absorb without it. If one is more than 30 lbs overweight, one needs to take Vit D2 which is only available by Rx from a doctor because D3 won't absorb since it's stored in body fat. It also doesn't release in the winter in Northern climates for that reason, because our bodies are holding onto more fat during the dark, cold winter season. (Though taking S&S might help with that...hmmmm....)     http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2008/01/080102122306.htm

I don't know if any of our oils will help with it as well, though. I look forward to seeing if anyone has experience with that because I'd like to try it too.

My daughter has had pitted nails for a while. Her doctor said it was a
calcium deficiency so I then made sure she consumed a lot of calcium.
It never went away.  After seeing the doctor 6 months later, he said
it is a Zinc deficiency.  So I gave her a zinc supplement for the past
few months and she still has the pitted nails. Is this really a
deficiency?  Is there any oil that will treat this?

Thanks,
Tina
