Answers:
Well, you've got a few answers that will help a little, but mostly for the skin...... there are quite a number of things that help the hair and nails as well.. Some of the most popular ones are Biotin, Silica (commonly from Horsetail), Squalene, Hyaluronic Acid, MSM, Fo-ti (also called He-Shou-Wu), L-Cysteine, Omega-6 fatty acids (like those in Borage or Evening Primrose Oils), Collagen, and most antioxidants.. B Vitamins and Zinc can help a little, but not as much as most of these herbs (especially the Biotin and Silica)..
also, remember that these will primarily help with the new hair and nails that are growing in, not what's already there.. You may want to get a moisturizing shampoo and/or a Calcium/strengthening treatment for your nails.. Good luck!Health Question & Answer

For skin, rubbing olive oil in is good - it has no chemicals in unlike normal body lotion or moisturiser.. Generally taking vitamins will help all of this.. If you go into a health food shop they will have lots of specific natural things for this, which work really well and the shop assistants will not what to recommend..Health Question & Answer

I agree with OldTimeKid2..........The herb Horsetail contains silica which strengthens connective tissue, hair and fingernails..

It sounds like you may have a nutrient deficiency.. Maybe taking a B-complex
I'd also look into taking Dandelion root to help to help cleanse the liver as it appears your body may be trying to detox..Health Question & Answer

Try a product called maxi hair by country life.. My hair has gotten thicker and stronger..
lots of people gave good suggestions, but this product has the b vitamins and msm, but no silica in it.. It is still good..
extra biotin or msm is good, it may cause you to break out some.. If you try it and it does this just drink extra water and give your body time to adjust to it..Health Question & Answer
