I am not sure what kind of info you would like, since I guess everyone's nail problems are different. I take a vitamin B complex a few times a day every day, and I have the long, strong nails I have always wanted.
There are new nail vitamins out there that seem to work well, but avoid the old myth about prenantal vitamins. Dr. Katz recently published the in-depth research that was put into prenatal vitamins and nail growth, and there is no evidence that they do anything for your nails. Apparently pregnant women have great nails because of the hormones in their body, not the vitamins they take.
So try some B Complex, which also helps my skin out somewhat, and try to add gelatin to your diet, either in food or capsule form, as that will help out as well.
