Question?
Nail Bitting


My 8-year old daughter is a chronic nail biter, her fingers are always in her mouth and she has bitten down to where the tips of her fingers are red.  She has a healthy diet and is socially well adapted.  How can I help her? 

Thanks!

She could be deficient in minerals - you could visit a Kinesiologist to check or order a standard multi mineral of high quality http://www.lindabelcherhealthcare.co.uk/ourshop/prod_545745-Bio-Minerals-Higher-Nature.html

It will now be a habit and to break this cycle a Kinesiologist will help you.

I recommend using homeopathy. I have seen it work wonders for these types of conditions. You would need to meet with a trained homeopath or naturopathic doctor since there are a number of remedies that would work for nail biting. It will depend on the constellation of symptoms that need to be objectively assessed to find the correct remedy for her.
