Nail and skin health is influenced by genetics, diet, lifestyle, and environmental factors. Nails protect fingertips, assist in daily tasks, and serve as indicators of health, while skin acts as a barrier against infections, regulates temperature, and maintains hydration.
Nail health refers to the strength, growth, and overall condition of nails. Nails are made of keratin, a protein that requires proper nutrition and care.
Drinking enough water each day helps keep skin soft, supple, and hydrated while also supporting nail strength. Dehydration can lead to dry, flaky skin and brittle nails. Aim for at least 6–8 glasses of water daily.
