Brittle Nails

Nails often grow brittle as a person grows older, and dry weather can aggravate this. A deficiency of important vitamins and minerals may also lead to brittle nails. Consider scheduling an appointment with a nearby Carbon Health for possible treatment.
Brittle fingernails can be caused by a variety of factors, including nutritional deficiencies. In particular, a lack of biotin, a B-vitamin also known as vitamin H, can lead to brittle nails. Biotin plays a key role in the formation of keratin, a protein that makes up the nails, hair, and skin.
