If you’ve ever dealt with brittle nails, slow growth, or frequent breakage, you’re not alone. Beautiful, strong nails aren’t just a cosmetic goal—they’re a reflection of your overall health. The good news? Your diet and daily care routine can make a world of difference.
In this post, we’ll explore the top 5 vitamins and nutrients scientifically linked to nail growth, and how you can naturally support healthier nails from the inside out and outside in. Let’s dive in.
1. Biotin (Vitamin B7)
When it comes to nail health, Biotin is the undisputed queen.
Biotin helps convert food into energy, but it also plays a direct role in strengthening keratin—the protein that makes up your nails. Studies show that taking biotin consistently can increase nail thickness and reduce splitting within just a few weeks.
How to get it:
– Foods like eggs, almonds, and salmon
– Topical application through serums or oils
👉 Our Plant-Powered Nail Growth Serum includes high-quality Biotin, allowing your nails to soak up the benefits directly where they’re needed most.
2. Keratin
Keratin isn’t a vitamin, but it's essential. It’s the structural protein your nails are literally made of.
While your body naturally produces keratin, stress, poor nutrition, and chemical exposure (like gel polish removers) can weaken it over time. Boosting your keratin levels helps your nails become harder, smoother, and more resilient.
How to support it:
– Eat protein-rich foods (chicken, tofu, legumes)
– Use products that deliver keratin directly to the nail bed
Lavinte’s nail serum is enriched with natural keratin, working to reinforce your nail structure while keeping your cuticles soft and healthy.
3. Vitamin E
Known for its antioxidant powers, Vitamin E supports blood circulation, which is crucial for nail growth.
Better circulation means more nutrients delivered to your nail matrix (the base of your nail), leading to faster and healthier growth. It also helps prevent yellowing, cracking, and inflammation around the cuticles.
Sources include:
– Sunflower seeds, spinach, avocados
– Topical oils like jojoba and castor oil, which are packed with Vitamin E compounds
Lavinte’s formula includes jojoba and castor oil, both of which nourish dry, brittle nails and add a natural shine.
4. Iron
Low iron levels = slow nail growth. In fact, spoon-shaped or ridged nails can be an early sign of iron deficiency.
Iron helps red blood cells carry oxygen to your nail cells, and without enough of it, your nails may become weak, thin, and slow to grow.
Add more iron through:
– Red meat, lentils, spinach
– Iron supplements (consult your doctor first)
Combine this with a good nail care serum and your nails will thank you.
5. Omega-3 Fatty Acids
While not a vitamin, omega-3s play a major role in moisture retention. Dry nails are more prone to splitting and breaking.
Omega-3s reduce inflammation in the nail bed and promote hydration, flexibility, and strength.
Best sources:
– Walnuts, flaxseeds, chia seeds, fish
– Nourishing oils like rosehip seed oil and essential oils (also found in our nail serum!)
Nourish From the Outside, Too
