De-coloration of nails

Normal shades of nails tend to be pinkish white with a crescent shape at the base. The de-coloration implies bacterial activity or some internal maladies. Pale white nails are a symbol of liver sickness while dull nails are caused due to a lack of nutrients in the body. If the nail turns slightly bluish in color, it is due to the low oxygen content in the blood. Reddish streaks or lines on nail beds show heart contamination. Greenish nails are indicative of bacterial growth.

Thus, these points are determinants of the kind of pressure one’s body is going through that can be clearly depicted by the nails. Such signs shouldn’t be ignored at any cost.
