Everyone likes clean, well-manicured and polished nails. Nails too need to

be taken care of properly. Eating a healthy diet is important for your

nails. It is important to include certain vitamins in your daily diet to

ensure that your nails are healthy and look beautiful. Here are a few tips

for healthy nails.

   1.  For dry and brittle nails eat food that is rich in vitamin A and
        calcium.
   2. For hangnails eat food rich in protein, vitamin C and folic acid.
   3. Eat protein rich food for white bands across the nails.
   4. Deficiency of hydrochloric acid causes nails to split.
   5. Deficiency of vitamin B 12 can lead to dryness, rounded and curved
       ends and darkening of nails.
   6. Eat food rich in zinc to prevent white spots on the nails.
   7. Poor metabolism of essential fatty acids causes red skin around the
       cuticles.
   8. Ensure that half of your diet is made up of fresh fruits and raw
      vegetables. This will supple your nails with vitamins, minerals and
      enzymes.
   9. Eat food rich in sulfur and silicon like broccoli, fish, and onions.
  10. Eat food rich in biotin such as soy, brewer’s yeast and whole
       grains.
  11. Drink plenty of water and fresh fruit juices.
  12. Supplement your diet with spirulina and kelp to make your nails
       strong.
  13. Drink fresh carrot juice as often as possible as it is rich in
       calcium and phosphorus and good for strengthening your nails.
