Does the white radius on the thumb nail (just under the outer pink) show your natural strength (bone density)?

I had a friend tell me this, and I'm supposedly not naturally strong. Supposedly the bigger the whitish ring, the more calcium deposits or something, meaning more bone density. This somehow translates to more power (like in a punch).Does the white radius on the thumb nail (just under the outer pink) show your natural strength (bone density)?
No it is not indicative of your strength or bone density. That portion of your nail is called the lunula an d although it does not measure strength it does serve as an indicator of disease when it is abnormal.





I hope this helps.Does the white radius on the thumb nail (just under the outer pink) show your natural strength (bone density)?
A physically weak person can have excellent bone density so the white moon would have nothing to do with ';punch power.';





However, while not very accurate, the markings and colorations of one's fingernails can indicate a lot about the state of the body within.





For example, a doctor seeing yellow finger nails, may decide to have your liver tested because such coloration may mean an indication of liver dis-ease.





It can mean other things as well, but sometimes these indicators (including the eyes) give doctors early clues.
LOL NO AND I NO I AM A FIRE FIGHT CADET
don't believe everything you hear....have you ever seen Arnold Schwarzenegger's nails? no white at all. That is an urban myth.
different people have differnt shaped nails, and therefore, different shaped nail beds, cuticles, etc. thats a little far fetched!
