Thank you, ladies. I appreciate the insights.
Tex, of course. I am proud of my diet, actually - it’s a hobbie, it works for my body and mind, and I enjoy it. (LOVE cooking). I eat eggs, cheese, FAGE yoghurt and nuts almost daily. I add a protein like fish, chicken or tofu at night. I love lentils, beans and chickpeas too - but don’t eat them as much (find them a bit bloating). Eat LOTS of veggies, and absolutely eat carbs too. Nothing will stop me from eating the best bread with the best butter and cheese - I'm Euro and we love bread and cheese. I also eat rice, potatoes, pasta, quinoa and couscous. And the naughty stuff in moderation. We eat a lot of Asian food too - and I make everything from scratch. I’m not a big water drinker - don’t believe in it.
Suz, aha. I see. All those factors cause toenail loss. Makes sense. Good luck!
LBD, thanks for the toe protector tip.
Gigi, I will start with the Boitin.
Runcarla, I’ll try the clear polish too.
Bijou, I wish I could say that my nails split because I do karate.
