7 Tricks That Can Help You Understand Your Body More

Our body is a very complex system, where everything is connected in some way. And that’s why when something isn’t going as it should, it sends messages to other parts of the body as a warning sign. It is in our power and knowledge to be able to recognize these signs and make sure we fix what needs fixing.

Pint wants you to be able to recognize possible underlying health issues through these very simple ways.

1. Low hair porosity

The way you can check if you have low hair porosity is by dropping a single strand of your washed and dry hair in a glass of water. If the strand sinks to the bottom of the glass, your porosity is very high. This means that your hair absorbs every product you’re using very quickly and air dries in an instant. However, it usually feels very dry and tends to get frizzy.

In order to treat high porosity, you have to find the best products possible. You need to be looking for products that have “heavier” ingredients, such as oils and butters. You can also add a deep conditioning treatment to your weekly routine.

2. Horizontal lines on your neck

Postmenopausal women produce less estrogen than their body needs in order to maintain bone durability. And deep neck wrinkles are one concerning sign that the bones are becoming more brittle and less dense. This means that the danger of fracturing the bones is much higher. Calcium and vitamin D supplements might be a very good idea for avoiding osteoporosis.

These wrinkles might also be telling you that you should check your thyroid’s performance. If the condition keeps getting worse and is left untreated, it can start showing on your neck, among other areas. It’s not only wrinkles you should be looking for, but also flaky skin.

3. Ulcers on your mouth and tongue

The most common reasons for the appearance of ulcers are smoking, allergies, accidentally biting your tongue and inflammation. However, if nothing of the above applies to you, you might be deficient in vitamin-B12, iron, or folate. These deficiencies don’t develop overnight but progressively develop over a prolonged period of time.

Some other warning signs might be fatigue, dizziness, irregular heartbeat, and muscle weakness. If you experience all these, you will have to make some drastic changes to your diet and start taking the necessary supplements.

4. Peeling nails and cuticles and white spots on your nails
