Tips to Keep Your Nails Strong and Sexy

When you write down your shopping list, as you punch a phone number into your cell, while you wash dishes, do the ironing, clean the windows, or do one hundred other things that women do on any given day � do you take notice of the condition of your nails?
Our hands are such an integral part of our daily lives, and constantly, we risk their health and strength, often without even noticing, because of the hustle and bustle of our day-to-day activities. Take a few moments each day, or at least a few times a week, to monitor the condition of your nails � the color, the texture, the appearance of ridges or white marks.
Make a greater effort to take good care of your nails, and you will be thrilled with the way they complement your wardrobe and your own personal style. Consider the following tips as a way to enhance the health and quality of your nails.

Great, Healthy Nails

    Apply speed-dry nail polish when time is of the essence.
    Drink lots of water. Keep your body hydrated everyday to maintain healthy nails.
    Fortify your diet with FDA approved vitamins or supplements. Your fingernails count on you to be responsible with your health and your diet. Unless instructed otherwise by your physician, increase your daily doses of Vitamin A, Vitamin C, calcium, folic acid, protein, Vitamin B12, and zinc.
    Touch up your manicure on a daily basis to prevent chips and cracks.
    Your nails depend on you to maintain a healthy diet. Take in lots.

Nail polish tips:

    Finish with a clear topcoat to add gloss and sheen.
    Start with a base coat to strengthen and protect the nails.
    Store nail polish in the refrigerator to maintain a smooth consistency.
    Try not to store nail polish in a room that becomes cold. The nail polish bottles may break without warning, leaving you with a big mess.

To avoid breaking nails or brittle nails:

    Avoid using your nails as tools. This means no picking, scratching, digging, pinching, etc. You know who you are!
    Increase the amount of calcium in your diet.
    Use products containing alcohol, especially perfumed lotions, sparingly. These items can make nails prone to breaking.
    Wear rubber gloves when you do chores that involve continual submersion in water or contact with harsh detergents or chemicals.

Peaches Anti-Cancer

Peaches are good for you because they are a source of vitamins A and C and they are a good source of fiber especially with the peal. Peaches are also a good source of potassium and contain some calcium, magnesium, phosphorus and folate. Though low in calories—one cup of sliced peaches has only 60 calories—and composed of 80 percent water, peaches are packed with fiber, vitamins, minerals, and carotenoids. The dose of fiber in peaches acts as a gentle laxative, aids digestion, and may also help combat cancer.  Peaches is rich in cancer-fighting vitamin A in the form of beta carotene,  as well as the immune-boosting vitamin C, which also protects against heart disease. Rich in iron and potassium, peaches help ensure proper functioning of cells, the balance of fluid and electrolytes in the body, and nerve signaling.  Lutein and zeaxanthin —two carotenoids found in peaches—help guard against blindness caused by age-related macular degeneration.
