I'm a licensed nail technician.  Uping your intake in Zinc and taking Flaxseed Oil (Omega 3 fatty Acids) will def help in growing your nails strong & healthy. 

I've also heard that gelatin & silica do wonders as well.

I think you're probably wasting your time taking vitamins for nail growth. Unless you have a major deficiency, it's probably not going to help. They did run a test with MSM that supposedly showed results, but I tried it and didn't notice any difference.

Now a protein deficiency might show up in bad nail growth, but you would likely also have hair thinning, too.


Just looking for a few good hair slaves - is that too much to ask?

Hi, I'm new to the board.
I'd like some idea on some supplements
that my nails could enefit from.
Right now they grow but are very pliable,
and tend to bend into shapes that I'm not
to happy with. I'd like to strengthen them.
They also peel on the ends.
I'd love to have pretty nails
