According to Dr. David Sinclair, your nails can reveal a lot about your health. In fact, he claims that there is a sign that appears on your nails that can reveal your life expectancy. But what is this sign and what should you do if you see it? Let’s learn more about the relationship between this sign and life expectancy below.

Your life expectancy according to your nails

Dr. Sinclair says he regularly examines his nails to determine how fast he’s aging. Now, for most people, this is usually the last part of the body they consider when assessing their health. Most of us tend to pay more attention to our diet, lungs, heart, and overall health than our nails when determining how healthy we are. Even so, according to Dr. Sinclair, the condition of our nails reveals the rate at which new, healthy cells are being produced in the body. The faster the rate at which new cells are being produced, the more protected the body is against age-related health decline.
