Fingernails Feeling Flimsy?

Having long, strong nails are not only beautiful. Fingernails are also a sign of a person’s overall health. Brittle nails that peel and break easily should be a cause for concern. There may be key nutrient deficiencies missing in the body. Taking a supplement with the right combination of ingredients can change those nails from flimsy to firm.

ReNue Rx What Supplement Can I Take For Stronger Nails?

Strong nails make strong shields

Nails are made primarily of keratin, the same protein that makes up hair and skin. Fingernails and toenails may seem useless. But nails actually protect the very sensitive fingertips from injuries. Toenails are thicker as the foot is larger and contains more blood vessels and tissues. Humans may not use nails anymore for digging or climbing like other animals. But keeping nails healthy is still vital.

Do unhealthy nails mean an unhealthy body?

The color of fingernails could be a sign of an underlying problem. For instance, yellowed nails could be a sign of diabetes. Grooves in the fingernails or split nails could indicate a vitamin deficiency or illness. Getting a supplement can not only improve nail strength but can also improve overall health. With hundreds of supplements on the market, finding the right one can be a challenge. Take a supplement with one or more of the following ingredients to see a significant change in nail health.

Banking on B vitamins

Two essential B vitamins help with strong nail growth. Biotin, or vitamin B7, helps strengthen nails, skin, and hair. In one study, women who took biotin for 6-9 months showed improved hair growth. Other clinical trials showed improvement in strength and thickness of nails when taking a B7 supplement. Other B vitamins like B12 and B9 also help with nutrient absorption and blood cell growth.

Increasing your iron

Getting an extra dose of iron helps improve bone health. Fortunately, the benefits extend to nails too. Iron is a key mineral found in nails, and concave nails are a sign of an iron deficiency. Supplements should contain a daily dosage of iron to reverse any iron-related conditions.

Creating more collagen

The best supplements on the market infuse ingredients that trigger collagen production. Collagen is one of the most important proteins in the body. Without collagen, skin, hair, bones, muscles, and nails would be unhealthy. Since collagen production slows with age, getting a supplement improves overall health. Collagen treatment has been proven to increase strength and decrease brittle nails.

Saw palmetto supplement

The saw palmetto tree grows in the southern region of the US. The extract from ripe fruit treats conditions like diminished testosterone and improves hair and nails. Saw palmetto helps to balance hormones and increase the production of dihydrotestosterone (DHT). Getting a supplement infused with saw palmetto provides a long-term treatment for stronger nails

Get serious about nail health

Beautiful nails are not necessarily a sign of vanity. Strong nails are an important part of overall health and wellness. Seek advice from a dermatologist or pharmacist for an effective supplement and tips on proper care. Within a few months of taking the right supplement, brittle nails can become stronger.
