How to solve chapped hands?!


Question: How to solve chapped hands?
I have wrinkly, dry and chapped ashy hands, i have had this problem for a few years now and so fourth have had no success in finding a cure for this problem.

Answers:

Chapped/dry hands are a nutritional deficiency symptom! if you don't have enough B-vitamins, vitamin A, potassium, zinc, iron, or biotin, you can get chapped hands. seriously, google it to see for yourself! you could get these nutrient levels checked up by a doctor/nurse. they will take a blood test to see if you're lacking any of them. also, make sure you're getting enough of the essential fatty acids (essential fatty acids are found in salmon and chia seeds and some other foods)

are you washing your hands too often? if you're constantly washing your hands, it will dry them out and you will get chapped/dry hands.

are you drinking enough water? you need to drink 2.5 liters of water every day! if you don't drink enough water, your body can't keep your skin moisten like it should. (FYI: coffee and alcohol DEhydrates you - takes water away from your body... coffee and alcohol also takes away nutrition.)

(natural) coconut oil is a great moisturizer!!

PS: don't forget my first comment about nutrition!! very important!

personal experience & I research A LOT about nutrition on my own!!!
