Anyone with nail issues

I've posted numerous times about my nails being a disaster lately. I've tried everything and started taking my vitamins regularly (the ones I thought would help anyway). Well last night I was reading SELF and one of the articles had to do with a woman who bites her nails and how they are destroyed. Little to my knowledge that Vitamin B complex is what helps your nails. (I thought it was calcium and E.) Vitamin B is found in many foods including: brewer's yeast, liver, whole-grain cereals, oats, rice, nuts, milk, eggs, meats, fish, fruits, leafy green vegetables and many other foods. If you're not eating many of these foods then definitely start taking a supplement! After reading this info I realized that when I stopped eating oatmeal is when I began having the problem. Back to oatmeal it is for me!

I'm a nail bitter

I wish I could grow nails, but they only grow toa certain point and then flake. SO if i start taking Vitamin B, I might avoid this problem in the future???

Yup. mine break alll the time. I've learned that sallie nail harden works really good. You need to start off with short nails though and keep addding a touch everyt day for a week.

Yes some say it has to do with your diet, but sometimes when you're doing things, it can just break. Try the harden.

Re: Anyone with nail issues

my cuticles are split and cracked ( I know, attractive right) but I'm constantly touching paper all day at work, and this KILLS my fingers! I don't think I can use any more lotion than I already am!
