Drink a lot of milk, and increase your protein intake (in other words, eat more lean meat, eggs and green veg).
And here's a tip that always works! Wash your hands in really hot water a few times a day for 2 to 3 mins. I SWEAR IT WORKS.. :/ But make sure you apply conditioner to your hands after each session because the hot water dehydrates your skin. :)
What food do you hate? Is there anything you hate the taste of? Coffee, vingear, pineapple, ketchup etc? Then dip your fingers in those when youre at home. You'll HATE biting your nails :p... And if youre in public, make sure you got something in your mouth to keep your teeth busy, like bubble gum or sunflower seeds or someting. :D

calcium makes your nails grow and there is also a nail polish that you can buy at nail salons or most drug stores that makes your nails stronger .. i forget exactly what its called but its something like hard nails
as for the biting .. try getting the nail polish that tastes bad so you won't bite
i hope this helps !

I tried Hollywood oil you just dab a little of it on your finger and rub it onto your finger nails. This makes them shiny and healthy. Also if you enjoy wearing nail polish: as i do too! You may want to stop wearing it and see if your nails grow longer. My nails grow way longer when i do not wear nail polish. Hope some of this helps!

Nail Tek nail hardner is the best! keeping them hard will keep them from breaking. Nails normally break once they reach a certain length. Don't bite, chew sugar free gum. Eat foods with vitamin e. it will strengthen your nails.(and hair and skin)
