Nails Anatomy
The matrix is responsible for production of the cells that become the nail plate. The width and thickness of the nail plate is determined by the size, length, and thickness of the matrix, while the shape of the fingertip itself determines if the nail plate is flat, arched, or hooked. The matrix will continue to grow as long as it receives nutrition and remains in a healthy condition. As the cells of the new nail plate are incubated, they emerge from the matrix round and white to push older nail plate cells forward; and in this way yet older cells become compressed, flat, and translucent, making the pink color of the capillaries in the nail bed below visible. Keratin is the major molecule remaining by this condensation. It is a protein and is composed of layers, interconnected by chains and cross links. The quality and composition of layers, cross links and chains determine the strength of nail. Providing elements which are essential to nail structure are important to enjoy a strong nail. This is how Phytocharm Strength works.
The overall growth of the nail within one month is approximately 3mm. However this does vary from person to person. There are many contributing factors such as weather, general health, age and a well balanced diet. Growth is accelerated in summer, during pregnancy and during sleep. Poor blood circulation, malnutrition, certain illnesses and some medications can slow down the growth rate. Each nail grows at a different rate. The smallest nail that we often refer to as our “pinkie” is the in fact the slowest, then the thumbs. The index finger generally grows at an accelerated rate in comparison to the others. Phytocharm Growth providing essential nutrients for matrix, greatly improves nail growth.
Healthy Nails Appearance
Nail is made up of a protein named keratin. It is translucent and reflects the underneath fingertip capillaries. Because of that, a normal and healthy nail looks pink. Any factor changing the capillaries and/or the nail composition can alter this color. That is why, Phytocharm products bring a more beautiful with brighter pink nails, reflecting the healthy state of our nails.
