Hi everyone ! hi Gérard !

Checking your nails could save your life

Once the disease has taken hold,  lung cancer and heart disease — can show up in red bulging finger tips and downward curved nails. Anyway it is not very useful because it is a bit too late.  what is important is to eliminate the disease at the very  beginning or take preventive action. Angelina Jolie's case is a wonderful example.
