I've had years of pregnancy vitamins and my nails never improved. At least someone is addressing the issue. My doctors have all ignored my nail issues as insignificant. It's a constant struggle.
Same here. I started having problems with my nails when I was 40 and my family doctor always said, ‘getting older’. I’m 53 and still haven’t found the answer to my vertical lines.
I'm jealous of your whiteboard thingy. It's not a whiteboard per se but looks fun. Nails. Every nail has vertical ridges. I'm taking biotin, silica and iron.
OMG I'M BLOWN AWAY BY THE INFO ON HERE!! IT CAME AT THE BEST TIME! I'D BEEN SEARCHING FOR ANSWERS 2 WHY THERE'S A LINE IN THE MIDDLE OF MY THUMB, THIN dark line, I'VE ALWAYS BEEN low on iron, enemic. THANK u
Wow you know your stuff. Thanks to you, I lost 30 pounds in 2 months and I no longer feel like I have a disease. It was what I was eating and not eating.
This used to be my doctor when he practice here in Va. he has a very good bedside manner, and taught me a lot about food and how they work to help my body operate at its best. I give his tips to everybody that want to be healthy. He forever charged my life!!!
Best Video EVER💖💖💖💖I have been having horribly brittle nails lately this year and they are not growing anymore. This helps me a lot on where I should start getting help with taking care of my nails, thank you!
This video came right on time! I have vertical lines and just ruled out that it's not an iron deficiency. My hematologist told me to get my hormones, thyroid and vitamin B checked. Dr. Berg is the truth for real! One day I'm just gonna sit down with a notebook and watch all of his videos.
I had crummy nails for YEARS. I tried taking biotin, but it never helped. I was at my wit's end....then I happened upon a YT video that claimed soaking your nails every day in olive oil would work wonders. Yeah, right! And who has time to soak for 15-30 min every day? So I compromised and oiled my nails every time I got near oil. Olive oil while making dinner, Avocado oil while removing makeup, Coconut oil while making bullet proof coffee, Almond oil when I moisturized my hands at bedtime, etc. Wow, it didn't take long before my nails stopped tearing and splitting. My thumbnails are still a work in progress, but overall, I am thrilled. 👐🏻
@@ellehub2136 I'm not sure which time frame you're referring to. The length of time my nails were a mess?....decades The length of time the video said to soak in oil?... 15 to 30 min The length of time before my nails began to show improvement?....a week or less. This probably won't solve the problem for everyone, because our nail problems don't all have the same cause. In my case, I wash my hands a lot and I think they were dried out from that, so the oil protects from the drying effects of washing.
THANK YOU DR BERG, I KNEW SOME OF NAIL PROBLEMS, BUT YOU HELPED ME IN KNOWING MUCH MORE. THANK YOU FOR CARING SO MUCH TO HELP US, BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY. 👨👩👧👧💜
I was diagnosed a serious iron deficiency which was not noticed but have influenced my life quality a lot. My nails are exactly what Dr. Berg said. I'm taking medical iron supplements and now feeling better. Hope my new nails will show me that. Thanks!
I had vertical ridges on all my nails. Then by chance I was diagnosed with renal cell carcinoma, a 5 cm tumor. After the nefrectomy and recovery my nails went back to normal. So I am sure it was related. This is 6 years ago and I am fine, thanks God 🙏.

Thanks again Dr Berg, I have gut issues, nail ridges, my nails just won't grow, toe nail fungus (I'm embarrassed to say, especially bcz I'm type A personality with OCD) and I'm always soooooooo tired, sometimes I sleep 12 to 14 hours (insanity) and still tired!

What you need is an overall Balanced diet. You should try green smoothies for vitamins , and eating healthy meats for minerals for example Oysters and Liver are the most nutrients dense meats on the planet. Smoothies are packed packed with fiber and plenty of vitamins which will feed your Micro biome which is essential to energy levels and mental health. My smoothies consist of 1 bunch Kale - 13 essential amino acids 1 bunch beet roots - B Vitamins 1 bunch Celery 1 WHOLE LEMON including peel 1 ginger root Organic Oj from Sprouts with 1 billion Pro-biotics included 1 Garlic clover (if I can handle the taste that day lol) Sometimes Parsley, chards , spinach And lastly 1 table spoon of Extra Virgin Olive oil since most vitamins are Fat Soluable. It's really hard to stomach when warm so I always freeze my leftover smoothie to add to the next which helps very much with consistency without adding sugar filled frozen fruit to the mix. This is what works for me you can always switch things in and out for your body, I would recommend trying it for at least a week but you will notice differences from the first smoothie. Dr.berg has videos on most of these ingredients so that will help ! Good luck and stay healthy it's worth it 👌
I can see it- have you listened to the "bought and owned" doctors? they do NOT advocate anything truly healthy - they all push for drugs and pharmaceuticals. I am sure they don't want this GOOD info getting out!! 😉
Most doctors that I know take it in the lot with their eyes as I walk into the room sit down etc. They just don't always comment on what they see until they find something more relevant to connect the dots
Amy Hyruhm...I was thinking the same. Twice yearly and my doc never looks at my fingernails. Guess it's time for some regular doses of shrimp and salmon!!!
@@trkrla5113 Thanks for your reply! It seems doctors are only trained by and salesmen for Big Ph! Before evenbeing sent for tests recently, I was given a prescription for a whole year!!!
Now I know ì need to buy b12. I eat red meat so I'm wondering perhaps not eating enough prodiana for iron and just ordered magnesium gylcinate, threorate& taurate for lousey migraines.
My nails are terrible! They always have been. All of them have severe ridges, so severe that the nail beds split down the middle. I take iron for anemia, but it’s never helped with my nails. I’ll give B12 a try and see what happens. Great video!🙂💅🏾
Things I've so often wondered about. Thanks for not using music in your videos. Also, please don't block the view of some of the graphics you have created while you are speaking. It helps to view them while taking in what you are saying.
Thanks for the video, Dr. Berg! I appreciate all you do for us. I'm hypothyroid and have a deep horizontal ridge in the center of my two big toenails. I don't take iron supplements, but do eat beef liver once a week. Apparently, that's not enough. I'll add some lactoferrin, then iron if no change. Worst of all, my fingernails separate from the nail beds when my nails suddenly become paper-thin, even though I take NDT. They thin after a sweat busting activity (Not from the gym or exercise, just living, walking across a parking lot, walking upstairs, etc.) and after I take Magnesium (any brand or type of supplement including Pellegrino). When my nails separate from the nail beds, my fingers tips turn red and sore. They're so sore, I can't use my hands. The pain lasts for a couple of days, but the nail takes weeks, sometimes months or even years to connect to the bed. Have you ever heard or seen anything like this?
Thank you very much for this video, I was looking for years for the answer about the ridges thing , asked doctors but they always gave the same answer( nothing to worry about) and suddenly got the answer in your channel...Thanks 🙏 a lot .
I am so glad you cover this. Diagnosing the nail health is important in Ayurveda but western doctors ignore this or attribute it to old age. My nail ridges are dramatic in past two years since I've been having stomach problems and trouble eating (ME/CFS). Now I know why and what to do. 🙏🏼😊 💕
I could never understand in high-school why my nails were changing. Thank you for the help , Baraka to you for making this available and without a bunch of hoops. Making us visit 1k different doctors.
Oh! you are such an amazing person. Your love , care n concern for peoples' wellbeing is amazing. Weldone. keep up the good work. God bless u n ur family real good IJMNA. Regards
Thanks Dr. When I went to dermatologist to show my fingers all effected by vertical ridges, he just told me it sometimes happens and nothing to worry about. Now I know. I am anemic person. I can’t take iron tablets without getting constipation. So that is the reason!
Thank you,Dr.Berg.Am a new subscriber of your ytc.Now I know why my thumbnail has a line on it, but still praying that nothing is wrong with my thyroid, and I'd be thankful to God if I only have vits deficiency,instead of thyroid problem.Thank you so much.🙏❤
Another fantastic video! So helpful. Thank you so much Dr. Berg for all your hard work and the care you put into helping people understand their health and live healthier, and for the always succinct and easy to understand format. These videos address so many concerns that people have but can't necessarily find guidance on in current medical systems.
Thank you Dr. Berg, my doctor told me that my brown nails is due to nail polish.. I don’t even wear nail polish…Now I know it’s due to low Vitamin B12… I will start taking those. Thank you so much. 🙏🏽
Since going on a low carb high fat diet with intermittent fasting my nails have never been stronger and better looking. I do take additional supplements of zinc calcium C and B complex as well as fish oil capsules daily. It took only a month to see improvements.
You should also include; when nails are hyper curved, or "humped" - that usually indicates a respiratory issue, specifically in the lungs. This health indicator will always begin with the toes and move into the hands as the respiratory system deteriorates further.
I had lonula (half moon) in 4 fingers for a very long time. Recently I started taking Moringa leaf pounder half tea spoon daily in morning for a week. Lonula has disappeared from fingers only slightly visible on a thumb. Is it a sign of bad health? My sugar and BP is normal. I was on keto diet for 4 months earlier and lost 18 kg weight. Now I am on one meal a day and feel quite healthy walking 15000 steps daily.
Ty ❣ You hit the nail right on the head for me, I now know just what to do about my brittle nails. Glad I got up my courage and listened to this video. 😌
Thank you so much Dr. Berg for sharing this information. I have several disorders including Hashimoto's, Mastocytosis - Uticaria Pigmentosa, Ehlers Danlos Syndrome - Hypermobile Type, POTS and am only 50. I became disabled in 2015 and have been deteriorating since. Absorption is a big issue and my nails in the last few months that have always been so nice now have big vertical ridges, with smaller ones. I have had anemia all my life but I guess now that it has progressed so much so that my nails are showing this. I have also a fatty liver. I am so grateful for your very clear and concise breakdown of what's literally breaking down in our systems and what we can do!
I remember when I was a young girl every time I went to see the doctor he’d hold that light up to my eyes while he studied them. He’d study my nails. Listen to my heart and look into my ears upon arriving at the office. I even asked a doctor what was going on my with nails and he told me. Old age. I have nail ridges but I also have hyperthyroidism. My nails are extremely thin, very flexible & flake. My toe nails are totally opposite.
Eating more red meat, spending time in the sun and fasting has helped me tremendously to the point that the nail technician refused to put acrylics on and would only polish them, she said she wished she had strong, healthy nails like mine!! 🌞💋💋
Well way over here it will be 90 feeling like 100 so I'm heading to the pool, as ì try to get rid of this headache. I hope you all have a wonderful day and Dr. Berg keep up the great research work you provide us your such a blessing to ha all!
I just realized that this video describes what my doctor said when I had to get my blood taken for my adhd pills. She told me that I didn’t have enough B12 and now I realize that my nails also show something like that
Dr Berg are you watching me... when I put nail varnish on I can feel a sting on certain nails. I lost my nails when I had chemo there back and strong but could look healthier. Thanks for this more B12 for me.
OMG.. thank you sooo much for this information 🙏. I have lupus. My nails are showing me that on top of the B12 injection I must give myself & the biotin and vitamin D2, I need to get down to the store and get myself a B complex. I will of course discuss this with my rheumatologist. Hitting that subscribe button now
None of my Drs EVER have looked at my nails. Even as a preteen or teenager I don’t recall them doing it. I’ve had my own dr since I was 18 and all they go by is lab results even though I am consistently on the low end of vit D & all the B vitamins & iron. No dr has ever asked me why they’re on the low end. Have never questioned me about my diet, nothing. I use to call and question it but always get told the same thing. “You’re good. Don’t worry about it”. About a year ago I started taking an ‘over 50 woman’s multi vit’. Most of the ridges are gone now except a really deep one on 1 thumb. My labs this year were still on the low end. Am anxious to see what they are next year.
That was.very.timely Dr. Berg. I was just this hour looking up this topic. I noticed my nail tips were getting very bright white for some reason. It must not be a problem otherwise you would have mentioned it. I did learn that I need to eat more vegetables because my nails have always been very brittle. Additionally, my nails never seem to get very strong or long. I can fold and bend them very easily, all except my thumb nail.
Love your videos. I have learned so much and because of the information you provide, in spite of the systemic RA my body has I am healthier than I would be otherwise. I can’t do anything naturally to remove the bunions on my feet, to straighten out my crooked fingers, but the meds, vigorous water aerobics, weight exercises and working towards eating healthy, and my Faith in my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, I am doing very well. God bless and protect you Dr Berg.
Thank u Dr. Berg U r right about the gray nail, I have one, I had Gastric Sleeve Surgery about 5 months ago, I had not been taking my B12. I Never had a problem with my nails until now, they have always grown very well and was healthy. After surgery one turned dark, so I'm bk to taking B12. Thanks.
i basically couldn't get my nails to grow until I started taking nutritional yeast and Vitamin D3 + K2. Thanks Dr. B. Also, clubbing of the nails could be related to lung disorders as well.
i've been batting an eating disorder after getting ptsd, and my nails have started getting mini circular dents all over. what deficiency is that showing? this was very useful, and the timing couldn't have been better, thanks
OMG, I've got vertical ridges, I always have had, but thought it's something to do with genetics. Dr Eric said , if you got it, I must be hypothyroidism, Vitamin b12 deficiency or Iron... I got to get a blood test to see which one it is...Thank you so much Dr Eric for educating us and trying, us, to improve our health and nutrition !!!
Mine too. I've been doing IF and low carb diet since Sept/Oct last year; I feel great but my nails have those ridges and on a couple of them tiny white spot. Are yours better after taking B12??
Your life is a worthwhile Life Dr Berg. Many people have better quality of life because of your hard work. I hope you are at peace and get alot of joy and love for all of your hard work. I love your work and what you represent.

I could never understand in high-school why my nails were changing. Thank you for the help , Baraka to you for making this available and without a bunch of hoops. Making us visit 1k different doctors.
Oh! you are such an amazing person. Your love , care n concern for peoples' wellbeing is amazing. Weldone. keep up the good work. God bless u n ur family real good IJMNA. Regards
Peeling nails was not discussed.
Thank you for letting us see the whole board.
Awesome information!! Wish regular doctors knew the information nutritionists do!! So thankful that I watched this!!
Thanks Dr. When I went to dermatologist to show my fingers all effected by vertical ridges, he just told me it sometimes happens and nothing to worry about. Now I know. I am anemic person. I can’t take iron tablets without getting constipation. So that is the reason!
Get MK supplements from New Zealand. Grass fed liver supplements
@ will it not make me constipate?
Once again, a great video! Thank you dr. Berg
Thank you,Dr.Berg.Am a new subscriber of your ytc.Now I know why my thumbnail has a line on it, but still praying that nothing is wrong with my thyroid, and I'd be thankful to God if I only have vits deficiency,instead of thyroid problem.Thank you so much.🙏❤
Another fantastic video! So helpful.
Thank you so much Dr. Berg for all your hard work and the care you put into helping people understand their health and live healthier, and for the always succinct and easy to understand format. These videos address so many concerns that people have but can't necessarily find guidance on in current medical systems.
Thank you Dr. Berg, my doctor told me that my brown nails is due to nail polish.. I don’t even wear nail polish…Now I know it’s due to low Vitamin B12… I will start taking those. Thank you so much. 🙏🏽
I have been waiting for this video for 2 years!! Thank you b12/iron deficiency.
SO good!! Thank you!!!🙌 Amazing how difficult is was to find specific information on the web about verticals ridges.
thank you for the nail forensic studies
I'D GIVE YOU A THUMBS UP.......BUT..... MY NAILS ARE EMBARRASING !😁
Your advice has made my health better . Changing old bad habits .🇺🇸👍.
If I'm not mistaken clubbed is growing downward, curving around the finger. Spooning is curving up. My daughter has clubbed fingers and toes.
And there is also the case where the nails grows upwards.
Michelle Osborne,
You're correct!
Actually, this is gold.
Five stars!
Since going on a low carb high fat diet with intermittent fasting my nails have never been stronger and better looking. I do take additional supplements of zinc calcium C and B complex as well as fish oil capsules daily. It took only a month to see improvements.
BEAUTIFUL VIDEO AND CONTEXTUAL PERSPECTIVE. THANK YOU.
I knew Dr Berg would respond to my questions, and I do trust his explanations! Thanks Doc!
The ad is 4:30 mins long about saving photos. Dr Berg's advice half the time, and more valuable.
"and you ate the entire cake" that's so funny, but unfortunately sounds like the sugar addiction I'm trying to get rid of.
Thank you so much Dr. Berg.
You should also include; when nails are hyper curved, or "humped" - that usually indicates a respiratory issue, specifically in the lungs. This health indicator will always begin with the toes and move into the hands as the respiratory system deteriorates further.
Absolutely! Usually during cystic fibrosis when there are a lot of scarred bronchials.
This is amazing info! Why are doctors not checking our nails?
Love it where you said "six months ago you are the whole cake" that's me.
I had lonula (half moon) in 4 fingers for a very long time. Recently I started taking Moringa leaf pounder half tea spoon daily in morning for a week. Lonula has disappeared from fingers only slightly visible on a thumb. Is it a sign of bad health? My sugar and BP is normal. I was on keto diet for 4 months earlier and lost 18 kg weight. Now I am on one meal a day and feel quite healthy walking 15000 steps daily.
Dr Berg, THANK YOU! Your FREE Info, is so much Appreciated!!!🙏💜🕯🇦🇺Au I am a happy Subscriber!🙏💜🕯🇦🇺Au
Ty ❣ You hit the nail right on the head for me, I now know just what to do about my brittle nails. Glad I got up my courage and listened to this video. 😌
Thank you Dr. Berg. I have been wondering about the vertical ridge in my nail. Lack of iron makes so much sense.
Do you know how much iron to take in aday ?
Thank you so much Dr. Berg for sharing this information. I have several disorders including Hashimoto's, Mastocytosis - Uticaria Pigmentosa, Ehlers Danlos Syndrome - Hypermobile Type, POTS and am only 50. I became disabled in 2015 and have been deteriorating since. Absorption is a big issue and my nails in the last few months that have always been so nice now have big vertical ridges, with smaller ones. I have had anemia all my life but I guess now that it has progressed so much so that my nails are showing this. I have also a fatty liver. I am so grateful for your very clear and concise breakdown of what's literally breaking down in our systems and what we can do!
Yo, Dr. Berg bro! Excellent content ✌😎
Amazing doctor
I’m learning by myself health
But when you just listening from the doctor you don’t have to worry and keep thinking
Gracious senior
Dr Berg, what you call clubbing of nail is actually spooning of nails due to iron deficiency anaemia.
I just started having this issues with nails on my thumbs. I'm gonna add some iron to see if it'll improve.
I remember when I was a young girl every time I went to see the doctor he’d hold that light up to my eyes while he studied them. He’d study my nails. Listen to my heart and look into my ears upon arriving at the office. I even asked a doctor what was going on my with nails and he told me. Old age. I have nail ridges but I also have hyperthyroidism. My nails are extremely thin, very flexible & flake. My toe nails are totally opposite.
Great information Dr Berg! Thank you!
Thank You for this comprehensive video. I will look for the others.
Eating more red meat, spending time in the sun and fasting has helped me tremendously to the point that the nail technician refused to put acrylics on and would only polish them, she said she wished she had strong, healthy nails like mine!! 🌞💋💋
Wow, that's awesome. I love pretty healthy nails ♥️♥️
Well way over here it will be 90 feeling like 100 so I'm heading to the pool, as ì try to get rid of this headache. I hope you all have a wonderful day and Dr. Berg keep up the great research work you provide us your such a blessing to ha all!
Oh, you're SO lucky!
I'm glad the nail technician did that and not try to take your money. The fumes in those shops smell so bad I can't even go in them.
Eating more red meat?? How's your cholesterol doing? You know you can grow strong nails by eating plants, right? Smh.
I just realized that this video describes what my doctor said when I had to get my blood taken for my adhd pills. She told me that I didn’t have enough B12 and now I realize that my nails also show something like that
Dr Berg are you watching me... when I put nail varnish on I can feel a sting on certain nails. I lost my nails when I had chemo there back and strong but could look healthier. Thanks for this more B12 for me.
@Amba I know what you're saying. I lost my nails going thru chemo about 3 years ago. What a Trip! So happy to see that you are recovered!😉👊👍
Exceptionally useful, because of sheer simplicity and practicality of this method!
Hello Dr. Berg, thank you for ALL your work! Nail problems reveal so much about our health, that we take for granted.
God Bless.
OMG.. thank you sooo much for this information 🙏. I have lupus. My nails are showing me that on top of the B12 injection I must give myself & the biotin and vitamin D2, I need to get down to the store and get myself a B complex. I will of course discuss this with my rheumatologist.

Another awesome informative video. Thank you so much, implementing your information has made me so much healthier and i appreciate your hard work.❤❤
None of my Drs EVER have looked at my nails. Even as a preteen or teenager I don’t recall them doing it. I’ve had my own dr since I was 18 and all they go by is lab results even though I am consistently on the low end of vit D & all the B vitamins & iron. No dr has ever asked me why they’re on the low end. Have never questioned me about my diet, nothing. I use to call and question it but always get told the same thing. “You’re good. Don’t worry about it”. About a year ago I started taking an ‘over 50 woman’s multi vit’. Most of the ridges are gone now except a really deep one on 1 thumb. My labs this year were still on the low end. Am anxious to see what they are next year.
Thank you for this informative video, Dr Berg.
That was.very.timely Dr. Berg. I was just this hour looking up this topic. I noticed my nail tips were getting very bright white for some reason. It must not be a problem otherwise you would have mentioned it.
I did learn that I need to eat more vegetables because my nails have always been very brittle.
Additionally, my nails never seem to get very strong or long. I can fold and bend them very easily, all except my thumb nail.
Love your videos. I have learned so much and because of the information you provide, in spite of the systemic RA my body has I am healthier than I would be otherwise. I can’t do anything naturally to remove the bunions on my feet, to straighten out my crooked fingers, but the meds, vigorous water aerobics, weight exercises and working towards eating healthy, and my Faith in my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, I am doing very well. God bless and protect you Dr Berg.
Hello Dr. Berg! I wish there were more doctors like you… Your hard work is greatly appreciated! May God bless you and your loved ones❤️
Excellent Dr Berg, the “Master of Nutrition”.......
Thank u Dr. Berg
U r right about the gray nail, I have one, I had Gastric Sleeve Surgery about 5 months ago, I had not been taking my B12. I Never had a problem with my nails until now, they have always grown very well and was healthy. After surgery one turned dark, so I'm bk to taking B12. Thanks.
i basically couldn't get my nails to grow until I started taking nutritional yeast and Vitamin D3 + K2. Thanks Dr. B. Also, clubbing of the nails could be related to lung disorders as well.
Dear can you please share us the kind of vit d3+ k2 and the yeast that you took ??
Thank you so much. This was more information than I have been able to find searching for months.
i've been batting an eating disorder after getting ptsd, and my nails have started getting mini circular dents all over. what deficiency is that showing? this was very useful, and the timing couldn't have been better, thanks
Did u find out ?
OMG, I've got vertical ridges, I always have had, but thought it's something to do with genetics. Dr Eric said , if you got it, I must be hypothyroidism, Vitamin b12 deficiency or Iron... I got to get a blood test to see which one it is...Thank you so much Dr Eric for educating us and trying, us, to improve our health and nutrition !!!
Did u find out what this was ?
I've had vertical ridges for at least 40 years. Most of my friends do to. My doc said it's mainly due to aging. I'm going to try the iron first.
Thank you Dr. Berg. You are Always Awesome !!! 😃🙂👍🏻
Wow my nails has vertical ridges and i just started B12 to see if i could feel better. Thanks doc you are amazing
Mine too. I've been doing IF and low carb diet since Sept/Oct last year; I feel great but my nails have those ridges and on a couple of them tiny white spot. Are yours better after taking B12??
Any update?
