Hi everyone!!!
How are you all???
I have seen people having long nails.Whenever I see them,I wonder how are they able to resist themselves from biting the nails!!!
In my palm,you won't be able to spot nails.I bite it till the edge. My amma used to scold me when she sees me biting nails. My sister also tried telling,"Bite my nails also!!! Just smell your hand!!!You will never bite nails!!!".My friend used to hit me when I bite nails.

I usually feel bad when they scold me and will take a resolution that I would never bite nails. But I start biting without my knowledge!!!
How many of you are like me???
First I will jot down few facts about nails:
Nails and hair do not keep on growing after death contrary to what is often stated as fact. The truth is that the body dehydrates after death, resulting in an appearance of hair and nails that seem to grow.
Finger nails grow faster than toe nails. Finger nails grow at the approximate rate of a half an inch every 100 days. If you bite your nails down to the flesh it takes at least a month to re-grow!
Nails on longer fingers grow faster than nails on short fingers. Nails also grow faster on your dominant hand. So if you must bite your nails, concentrate on the middle finger of your right hand – if you are right handed.
Massaging your finger tips will stimulate nail growth. So does typing on a keyboard.
Nails grow much faster during pregnancy.
Dry nails are mostly the result of not drinking enough. Unfortunately only water helps.
A man’s nails grow faster than a woman’s. This does not make a man superior!!!
Nails grow faster in warm sunny climates than in cold dark places. If you must bite your nails, move to Southern California.
The older you are, the slower your nails grow.
People biting nails do this out of habit. There is no medical cure. The only way to stop nail biting is to break the habit!
I wanted to know about this strange and most common habit(nail biting), so I surfed in net and got some information.I will put down some important facts
As you bite your nails, you easily transfer bacteria into your mouth and the rest of your body, where they may lead to infections
Nail biters are susceptible to paronychia, a skin infection that occurs around your nails
Nail biting may cause your teeth to shift out of their proper position, become misshapen, wear down prematurely, and become weakened
People who chronically bite their nails report significantly higher quality of life impairment than those who do not
The American Psychiatric Association re-classified nail biting as a form of obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), along with other forms of “pathological grooming” – but for most people nail biting is simply the result of boredom or stress

How are you all???
