My fingernails have become aweful! They are dry and brittle. They keep cracking . This has gotten worse and worse since my VSG.

Any suggestions on how to make my nails strong again? Is there a supplement I can take? Something that I can put directly on them?

Thanks!

Agreed. Take Biotin supplements. Biotin is good for hair, skin & nails.

It's better to be hated for who you are than loved for who you're not.
