    Default Nails

    Hi
    I am a new vegan and am eating mainly raw and gluten free. My nails have become very brittle and my skin very dry. Is this a passing thing or is there something I am missing? Apart from that I am feeling excellent and thinner
    Any ideas would be welcome

    Hi, if you haven't already looked into omega oils, especially omega 3, you might want to. Sorry, can't find a vegan link at the moment but this explains it a bit https://www.vegsoc.org/fatscholesterolomegas You could try including flax oil or crushed flaxseed in your diet and see if it helps.

    Well done for going vegan by the way!
