How to strengthen brittle nails

Not only women, but also men face nail diseases. Often, thin nails that peel and break at the free edge can be an indicator of a lack of vitamins and microelements in the body.
The nail consists of a nail plate, a matrix and a nail bed. The nail is an appendage of the skin and therefore consists of the same cells as the epidermis. The nail plate is formed by keratin. Onychodystrophy is a disease that is most often caused by a nutritional disorder of the nail plate.

What causes brittle nails?

• First of all, it is necessary to pay attention to the deficiency of vitamins A, B, E, D and trace elements: calcium, magnesium, iron and zinc.
• Inadequate or irregular nutrition.
• Period of pregnancy and breastfeeding. This is due to the fact that during this period, the mother’s body transfers many vitamins and trace elements to the child.
• Also, do not forget about external factors, such as dry or too cold air.
• Various chemical substances – acetone, paint, acrylic – also have a negative effect on the skin of the hands and nails.
• And finally, it is also necessary to distinguish improper nail care – the habit of biting nails, the use of metal nippers or other people’s manicure accessories.
