What is Vitamin C good for?

Vitamin C For Healthy Nails?

Vitamin C is plentiful in blueberries, strawberries, watermelon, pumpkin and sunflower seeds, and sweet peppers. Eat yogurt, soy milk and soy products for calcium, and cream of wheat, lean meat and poultry for iron. Biotin, a B Vitamin, can increase the thickness of the nail, and can be readily found in cauliflower, lentils, whole grains, and peanut butter. If you find your nails cracking, increase your intake of omega 3's and omega 6's, the fatty acids, and a good source of these are primrose and flaxseed oils.
