What is causing my nails to peel?

Answer by  Ben (23)

Nails tend to peel due to an inadequate diet and poor digestion. The good news is that it's very easy to treat. If you add more protein and calcium to your diet, it will definitely help keep your nails stronger.

You may be lacking a vitamin in your diet such as iron or the B vitamins. Try taking a multivitamin and see your doctor for blood work. You can also try filing your nails in one direction instead of using a nail clipper to shorten them.Sometimes nail clippers can cause peeling.
