I just recently ended a very long very unhealthy relationship with acrylic nails (damn them!) and needless to say, my real nails have suffered great damage. What foods, fruits, veggies etc, are good for restoring nail health, promoting nail/hair growth, and making nails/hair stronger?

ok.. you can take supplement that is specially formulated for that purpose.. (walmart, or any drugstore).. but a good fix is taking Knotts gelatine (the one without flavor) everyday: just dissolve 1 packet of Knott's gelatine in water or juice and in 2 weeks you will notice the difference.

I use One A Day women's vitamins and they help me. I usually get sick very often and my immune system isn't great but multivitamins seem to help. Vitamin D pills help with giving skin and hair a healthier glow. Vitamin D is what you get from the sun, and the supplement will make you feel better and it actually assists clearing acne as well. Eating better and drinking more water are a great start. You seem to be on the right track. It is okay to slip up once in a while but knowing how to take care of your body and wanting to are the first steps. Try and cut out smoking, drinking coffee or too much caffeine, if any of those things apply to you. If you still feel like your appearance is being affected by your health, you should see a doctor. Blood tests may reveal low iron or calcium levels and supplementing those will help with your overall look and the way you feel as well.
