DEAR DR. GOTT:
I have been following your readers comments on ridged, brittle fingernails. I have had soft, easily breakable fingernails with white flecks under them my whole life. I recently started drinking two ounces of 100% pomegranate juice because it is supposedly full of antioxidants and other good stuff. Within a short time, I noticed that my nails became strong and smooth and that the white flecks were gone.
I was amazed at the improvement and wanted to share this with your readers in the hopes that it will help them too. Just be sure that the juice is 100% pomegranate juice, not one of those mixes that contains only a small amount of it.
DEAR READER:
Thank you for writing to inform me and my readers of another remedy for brittle nails. This seems to be a wide-spread problem, especially for older women. Another successful remedy is Knox gelatin drink mix which was specially designed for weak, brittle nails.
