1. Nail Hydration

To prevent against dry and brittle nails which causes weakness, breakage, and also some form of infection like fungal infections which gets through those little cracks in your skin and nails, you should always engage in nail hydration.

When using creams, or hand lotions rub them into your nails as well, do not forget to moisturize daily after washing and drying your hands.

Apply nail oils if you don’t like to use cream or hand lotion all the time, nail oils can also make your nails stronger, hydrate them and add shine to the nails.

2. Reduce Exposing Your Nails To Water

Soaking your nails often in water can cause them to become weak, brittle and the break.

When you’re engaging in activities that needs you to put your hands in water like washing dishes always wear gloves to protect your fingers at all times.

Also while you take your bath, try to keep your hands out of water.

I know it is impossible for your hands not to get into water, but try as much as possible to avoid it, so even when it happens it won’t be all the time.

Iron, Vitamin A, Zinc, and Vitamin B12 are supplements that should be in your diet as they always improve skin health.

Consumption of food that is high in protein also improves nail and skin health, food like eggs, peanuts, pork, lean beef, black beans and so on.

In case you have any form of health issues, before starting a particular diet to improve the health and strength of your nails, speak to your healthcare professional before starting any new supplements.

Without enough moisture in the nails, it can lead to nails becoming brittle, also breakage, and peeling.

Drinking enough water leads to your nails having the proper amount of moisture they need, which helps them stay stronger and healthier.

5. Daily Consumption of Biotin Supplements

If you haven’t heard the name biotin before, then you must have heard of Vitamin B7 or Vitamin H, these are other names for biotin.

It is one of the B Vitamins that isn’t stored in the body, so you have to consume it daily, as it is very important in the body.

Having proper amount of biotin helps to strengthen nails and hair, while also providing help to the nervous system of the body which allows for proper function.

Food like “Legumes, Sardines, and Cooked Eggs” have biotin.

If you prefer to take B Vitamin supplements, I advice you seek the help of a Healthcare professional before taking it, to be sure it is good for you.
