    Today I’m going to share the best natural remedies for brittle nails and potential causes of nail problems.
    Your nails can give you insight into your health. Even though there are many different causes of brittle nails, we can still try to understand what the root issue is.
    Your nails are made of keratin, which is a type of protein. Protein is a combination of amino acids. A deficiency in amino acids can cause problems with the nails and lead to many other health concerns.
    You could be deficient in amino acids because of a lack of animal products in the diet, which contain amino acids. You could also be deficient in amino acids because of a lack of hydrochloric acid or because of intestinal inflammation.
    To activate proteins, you need certain trace minerals and minerals. Here are the most important minerals and trace minerals for brittle nails:
    • Sulfur
    • Iron
    • Zinc
    • Selenium
    • Copper
    • Magnesium
    • Silicon
    Important vitamins to support healthy nails:
    • Vitamin C
    • Biotin
    • Vitamin B6
    • Vitamin B12
    • Choline
    • Vitamin A
    • Vitamin D

    I had my thyroid removed, completely at 29.
    I used to see my endocrinologist every six months for bloodwork, check up etc. checking my medication dose …
    When doing my check up, he always had me put my hands straight out in front of me. He looked for tremors, & touch my nails; to feel the thickness and general nail health
    I asked him why he did this; he said it answered many questions for him.
    Interesting; I know the Chinese believe your hair, nails & skin are direct indicators of one’s overall health 🎉

      Eyes tell a whole lot and look up face chart. It's interesting because when I have had breakouts on my face, this chart usually verifies where my trouble is.

    I realized I now eat eggs EVERY day, and it has solved more issues I even realized I had. I get high quality eggs now, but when I was really struggling and homeless, before the egg prices really went up, I was living on even low quality eggs. All I ate were eggs and rice. It was all I could afford. I’ve never had stronger nails, and my hair started to thin due to stress, but has come back stronger than ever as I’m getting back on my feet. This is truth and it’s simple and amazing.

    Hey doc I just want you to know that in the past couple of months of being on the keto diet and dropping sugar I've got to tell you this this is literally, been life changing for me. So a few years ago I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. Been going through a really bad divorce and my life was kind of just falling apart at the seams. Near the end I met a girl who really cared a lot about. She told me that I should try the keto diet to lose weight. I was very reluctant thinking it was a fad diet. But I tried it for about a week and I noticed incredible results. First was the cravings for sugar and my glucose levels. Before I started this tired I went to the hospital and they told me that my blood sugar was at 650. My A1C was at 18. I was literally on the verge of death. But without any help from medication sticking to the keto diet. I weighed 280 before I started my journey. I now weigh 239 and my daily blood sugar levels are 98. My last A1C was 7. I'm scheduled to take a new lab in a few weeks. You saved my life because my girlfriend had the proper information from a doctor who was very passionate about his work. I want to bless you and your family for what you did for me. I thought I was going to die. My little girls would grow up without their father. I will always be grateful for you. Anyone reading this and thinking about trying this, just do it! Because you have one life and we have to cherish that. I will continue to lose weight and never go back to where I was. Thank you Dr

    On my thumbs I have those horizontal ridges, and they were really deep. I watched one of your videos on nails a while ago and realized I wasn’t getting enough of a few minerals and Vitamin E, so I ate foods that contained those things (hulled pumpkin seeds, hulled sunflower seeds) and now I have about 5mm of new growth with no ridges. So I think I was missing potassium, magnesium, and E. Those are the only things I was at Zero for. I eat about 2 tablespoons of those seeds each day, big difference overall and they are inexpensive. Thank you for the encouragement.

    Great info as always! I was breaking out on my chest and back 5-6 years ago. I thought it was my shampoo so I started making my own shampoo & conditioner. Switching helped clear up my breakout but to my surprise, my nails got harder. My nails were brittle, tear, & break. I noticed with me that it's the fruity flavored shampoos and conditioners that cause me to breakout.

    I always had bad toenails after I started running at 14 years old. And it was very obviously because while running my toenails would collide with the inside front and tops of the front of my shoes. There would often be blood 🩸 blisters beneath my toenails any time I started running regularly, as time went by they seemed to get tougher. When the blood blisters were big the toenails would become thick for a while. The last 10 mile run I did when at University gave me a very messed up big toe nail and toenail next to it that were damaged for life. And as I was in college/University I would see Pediatrists at the health fairs and they would laugh at me when they looked at my toenails and say it was fungus beneath the bad toenails! No suggested treatment, just ridicule. And of course they were totally wrong about the cause!

      Cut them a LOT shorter, use a course file to smooth them, keep feet/toes clean and DRY, rotate use of shoe/trainers so they dry out for two/three days between wearing the same shoe again.

      Yes, as a medical pedicurist, I've been dealing with this exact situation from , sports too small shoes, high heels etc.
      Keep nails short and be accurate when buying shoes ,make sure there's room in the front and space between the big toe or make sure the width is not to tight. soak in Epsom salt, vinegar .
      It's the tightness of the shoes and constant banging into inside of shoe..nails are Helmets for our nerve endings and just like a calus the nail will thicken to protect nerves..if this is left too long the nail begins to turn in and eventually looks like a claw instead of nail..
      This is always something I see in seniors also as we age we loose padding on bottom of foot so our feet can actually lengthen up to an inch!!!
      Big problem with seniors always shoes are too small!
      This is knowledge after 25 years of toes... yellow nails all the way through from base to tip that's a fungus problem ..nail thickening is a sign of lack of care...you can get a fungus problem that way...they are the easiest to cure...
      Shalom

      Me too, i have deformed toenails on both the big toes. It’s so embarrassing. On of them is thick. I had that toenail removed a couple years ago but it never grew back to normal. The other toenail is deformed like a claw. They never bothered me but now they get sore if I wear my shoes for long hours. I don’t know if I should get both of them permanently removed

    I've had brittle ,vertical ridge nails for a while. Started taking a certain hair growth supp. and pumpkin seed oil for a couple of months. The hair supp. has almost everything Dr. Berg prescribes. Biotin,Zinc, etc. Were really bad, now smoothing out, no brittleness, little lumpy still, but getting better. My hair fall is way less.Couple tbsp. daily of EV olive oil helps as well. Keeps wrinkles to a minimum too.

    I think there's also a connection with kidney health and nails/hair growth, I just have a feeling, kidneys filter the food in the blood and then some right? I might be wrong but perhaps poor kidneys cause lack of sleep, and lack of sleep causes problems with nails, skin and hair. Without sleep doesn't matter how much quality nutrition, and protein you take am I right?

    Hello doctor Berg
    I've a few questions after seeing many of your videos today since I just have too many skin, hair, nail and just health overall issues I may say 😢
    So the things I know about for sure and already tested is that I've chronic colon issue and tested iron deficiency, as well as sort of low asthma treated when was kid but still worsen sometimes.
    Now coming to obvious symptoms on my body I do have weak nails they tend to break easily once they reach certain small level, I do have dark circles around my eyes ( I do wear glasses not sure that also affects ), I do have acne but it used to be so bad, I simply stopped consuming diary milk and the difference is very clear but dark spots are left behind for so long, and last but not least my hair is long but so unhealthy looks dry and damaged and my biggest issue a bald spot in the middle front. I've been using home remedies which help for short run but in the long run I just tend to have all issues back once I stop so I realise it's coming from the inside.
    Could it be only for those defects I mentioned or it could be something else?
    Sorry for long comment but I'd appreciate any info on what I should be checking next.
    PS : I'm a female it's just random name I picked for channel 😊

    0.64 times my weight in pounds for required protein.
    Being 230 lbs, thats roughly 150g protein needed.
    Google tells me an egg is roughly 6g protein, so that would be 25 eggs per day.
    Or 400-600 gram of meat per day, or a combo of both.

    I've traditionally had great and strong nails, but after a surgery in November that left me extremely anemic for a couple of months as my blood volume recovered, my nails went brittle as could be. It's taken nearly 6 months for them to recover to the point of not splitting when I put my hand into my pocket. My hemoglobin is back to where it was pre-surgery, and as the nails have grown out, they've become better. So, long story short, iron deficiency/anemia is a definite cause for your nails to suffer. I'll never underestimate how debilitating low iron is for someone again, it was truly miserable.

    I was always under the impression that genetics played a part. The entirety of my father's side of the family has very "healthy looking" nails. My nails grow long and have this strong and clean look to them no matter my diet, and it used to bother me when women would stare and ask me "do you get your nails done?" And I always explained they have been that way since birth. But, I have one nail on my toe that has been brittle since birth hiding a birth mark underneath it. If it weren't for the birth mark I assume it would look like the rest of my nails.
