UÑA = “FINGERNAIL” IN SPANISH 🇲🇽

I LOVE YOU 💓

Howl you doing❓

I hope everything is GREAT with you and at home 🥰

Today I have a post about our claws also known as our fingernails.

I had to check if fingernail was one or two words when writing this and I believe it is the first time I ever spelled it.

I wonder if there is an “optimal” fingernail length. They protect our finger tips, can be used as tools and some enjoy painting them (I do).

I clip my nails when they are long enough to encourage me to pick my nose 😆

How long do you like your nails?

Here are some interesting facts about fingernails.

1. Fingernails Grow Faster Than Toenails
Fingernails typically grow about 3.5 millimeters per month, while toenails grow at about half that rate. This is because fingernails are more exposed to frequent use and blood circulation, which promotes growth.
2. Dominant Hand Nails Grow Faster
The nails on your dominant hand tend to grow faster due to increased blood flow and activity in that hand.
3. Growth Rate Depends on Age and Health
Nail growth slows with age, and factors like poor nutrition, stress, and illness can affect how quickly nails grow. Conversely, pregnancy can speed up nail growth due to hormonal changes.
4. Longest Fingernails in the World
The record for the longest fingernails ever was held by Lee Redmond, whose nails reached a total length of over 28 feet (8.65 meters) before she lost them in a car accident.
5. Made of Keratin
Nails are primarily made of keratin, the same protein that makes up your hair and the outer layer of your skin.
6. Nails Can Indicate Health Problems
Changes in nail color, texture, or growth can be signs of underlying health issues, such as anemia, heart disease, or thyroid problems. For example, white spots are often caused by minor injuries, not a lack of calcium.
7. The “Half-Moon” Is Important
The crescent-shaped white area at the base of your nail is called the lunula. It’s part of the nail matrix, where new nail cells are produced.
8. Nails Grow Faster in the Summer
Warmer temperatures improve blood circulation, which speeds up nail growth. This is why nails grow faster in summer than in winter.
9. The Cuticle Protects Your Nail
The cuticle is a barrier that protects the nail bed from infection. Cutting it too much can leave the area vulnerable to bacteria.
10. Ancient Beauty Practices
Nail care dates back thousands of years. In Ancient Egypt, nails were stained with henna, and in China, royals used nail polish made from beeswax, egg whites, and natural dyes.

WHEN DO YOU STOP❓

GOOD MORNING TO THE SON AND THE SKY❕👋🏼

COMIDA = “FOOD” IN SPANISH 🇲🇽

I LOVE YOU 💓

Howl you doing❓

I hope everything is GREAT with you and at home 🥰

Today I have a question for you.

When do you start and stop eating?

Do you eat until you are full? Do you stop eating when you are full?

Do you eat everything on your plate? Do you ever put more on your plate?

There is no right or wrong answer, I am just curious if you ever ask yourself any of these questions.

I eat when I am hungry but I also eat when I am not hungry. I eat everything on my plate but sometimes I will save food on my plate to eat later.

I rarely waste food and this was not always true. I tend to eat all of what is served when someone else prepares and serves my meal (not meals I order) out of respect for whom provided that meal.

As I get older I try to be aware of how, what and when I eat. This gives me an idea where I might want to make adjustments for health and energy reasons.

Over time you will know what is best for your body and it will probably take some experimentation and adjustments along the way.

Enjoy the process 😋

WHAT DO YOU NOSE❓👃

NARIZ = “NOSE” IN SPANISH 🇲🇽

I LOVE YOU 💓

Today I have a post about the human sense of smell.

I believe I have a pretty good sense of smell.

One of my oldest and best friends while we were growing up and still to this day has hardly the ability to smell at all.

Here are some interesting facts about smell according to ChatGPT.

1. Humans Can Detect Over a Trillion Scents

Recent research suggests that the human nose can differentiate more than 1 trillion distinct odors, far exceeding the previously believed 10,000 scents.

2. Smell Is Linked Closely to Memory

The olfactory bulb, which processes smells, is directly connected to the amygdala and hippocampus—areas of the brain associated with emotion and memory. This is why certain smells can instantly bring back vivid memories or strong emotions.

3. Each Person’s Sense of Smell Is Unique

Similar to fingerprints, every person has a unique smell perception due to genetic variations in their olfactory receptors.

4. You Smell Better Than You Think

Humans are surprisingly adept at tracking scents. Studies show that, with practice, humans can follow scent trails similarly to dogs, although less efficiently.

5. Smell Declines With Age

The sense of smell tends to weaken as we age, particularly after the age of 60, which can affect flavor perception as well.

6. Smell Influences Taste

Up to 80% of what we perceive as taste actually comes from our sense of smell. That’s why food seems tasteless when you have a cold.

7. Women Have a Better Sense of Smell

On average, women tend to have a more acute sense of smell than men, especially during their reproductive years. This might be linked to evolutionary traits.

8. Smell Plays a Role in Attraction

Humans subconsciously use smell to evaluate potential partners. Body odors, influenced by pheromones and immune system markers, can contribute to attraction.

9. Nose Blindness Is Real

Olfactory adaptation, or “nose blindness,” occurs when you become desensitized to a scent after prolonged exposure. This is why people often can’t smell their own home or perfume.

10. You Can Train Your Sense of Smell

Smell training, which involves repeatedly smelling specific scents, can improve olfactory sensitivity and even help recover the sense of smell after damage or illness.

11. Smell Alerts Us to Danger

The ability to detect harmful substances like smoke, gas, or spoiled food has evolutionary significance, helping humans survive threats in their environment.

12. Certain Smells Can Improve Mood

Aromas like lavender, citrus, and vanilla are known to reduce stress, enhance relaxation, or boost mood, which is the basis of aromatherapy practices.

The human sense of smell is far more sophisticated and influential than it might seem at first glance!
