I'm no expert at this at all but I remember a lady in junior high showed us about pushing our cuticles back to promote nail growth. I remember being surprised the following week how much my nails grew on the one hand that I performed the experiment on but not on the other. Give it a try and let me know if it works for you. This 'may' be because I was in the age group listed in the 'fingernail facts' answer but it's worth a try I think.

This answer was last edited on: Jan 28, 2006 Pure Apple cider vinegar...liquid of pill form. Almost an instant result. Edit - Apple Cider Vinegar is known for its good properties and will among other things, lower blood pressure. The pill form comes in dosages of 150 mg to 500 mg. A good health food shop will tell you the dosage to take. If you are unsure ask your doctor first. It is absolutely incredible to see the change inside a week. The nails will take on a new healthy appearance and growth.

Gelatin will speed nail growth, and make your nails stronger, too. Most drugstores will sell gelatin capsules (non-prescription). One capsule three times daily seems to be an effective dosage, based on my own experience.
