What minerals might you be lacking, Jane?
The Fibromyalgia Dr Armand noticed that many of the women coming to him
had well tended nails - false ones, which they wore because their nails
cracked and flaked and split. He would generally put them on
guaifenesin, which is reckoned to sort out the problem of calcium
phosphate deposits.
Mine are that way, though they improved at one stage, but I can't
remember what I was doing at the time.
As a girl, I was told it was an arthritic thing, and not to eat this
that and the other.
Some biochemics might help - all twelve in one, perhaps, while you read
the links posted on the subject, as I will myself.

Cracked & brittle nails do you think this is always a fungal

crippled & awful- only moons anywhere on hands or feet are on the
thumbs, which are very vertically ridged so much so they often split -
again I assumed with was hereditary? Biotin hasn't really helped yet.
Any suggestions? (homeopathy hasn't helped either with Causticum &
Graphites)
I was hoping that diatomaceous earth might help but I so rarely have
cold drinks I haven't really started taking it yet.

Tea Tree Oil should be good for fungus IF you use a carrier oil.
From the post i read the best carrier oil to use is Jojoba Oil
because it is very thin and can get through the nails. I did use
it on my very brittle cracked nails on my hands and it seems to
help, the problem is i kept forgetting to apply regularly.
