Is there a natural remedy for soft fingernails?!


Question: I have been a nail technician amongst other things for the past 25 years and the only things I have ever found to work is either eat a half sheet of Nori Seaweed every day, it will take at least 3-6 months for you to see the effects or try something called Hoof oil ( contains Silca and plant called Horsetail), this will also take 3-6 months to take effect as that is how long it takes for the new nail to grow. Good luck.

Calcium, calcium, calcium.

someone once told me to eat jelly - you don't disolve it just eat straight from the pack.
Another one I heard is curl your fingers in like your about to make a fist then run the nails on one hand against the nails on other back and forth. Got something to do with stimulating the nails and strenghtening them.
Not sure if it works butwoth a try.

Eat healthier, you can touch up the outsides with cream/varnishes etc but the goodness needs to come from within.

This is simple and effective,peel garlic and rub to your nails,it will make your nails strong .Leave it for half an hour,then wash your hand w/. lukewarm water.Try it and it will give you a positive result.do it before going to bed.

Silica. It is amazing for making youre nails as strong as glass. You can get it in capsule with or without calcium and you can get it in a gel. I prefer it in a gel and sell loads of it to woman wanting strong nails. Im in Australia so Im not sure what is available where you are but theres a german one on the market called Silicia. Just ask at youre local health shop and if they dont have any ask them to source one for you. You need to take a tablespoon of the gel every morning in water and you can take any of your other supplements with it. You need to take if for around 1-3 months before you notice a difference. Some silica tablet are derived from the horsetail herb however I prefer the gel as its derived from quartz crystal. Not cheap but worth it. It also strengthens youre hair and does wonders for your skin as it works on all the connective tissue within your body. if you are prone to weak nails you may need to keep up with it 3 or 4 times a week and have a look at your diet, you'll need lots of greens and eat healthy food. Take a good multi vitamin also, up till now you may not have been getting enough nutrients.
Good Luck!

Drink milk, for calcium and eat jelly. Seriously jelly helps nails grow strong. Eat the cubes straight from the pack.

Silica - vegetable source: horsetail

why Jelly is useful, too?

The powder contains gelatin which extracted from the collagen inside animals' connective tissues,bones,organs, and some intestines of animals such as the domesticated cattle, horses, and pigs. ( mainly pork skins, pork and cattle bones, or split cattle hides ). Recently, by-products of the fishery industry began to be considered as raw material for gelatin production because they eliminate most of the religious obstacles surrounding gelatin consumption.

It's cheap, it's doable & it wotks- I recomend this simple self help technique 2 all my nail bitting clients - it does take approx 3-6 months 4 nails 2 grow from bed 2 tip
Good luck !
