Anemia is the number 1 enemy of healthy nails. Keep taking your iron, but please start taking a good quality Vitamin B Complex tablet daily. B Complex contains Biotin which is essential to healthy hair and nails. Also, purchase some jojoba oil and vitamin E oil. Mix them together at equal proportions and apply to your nails and cuticles at least twice daily. IP: Logged |
