Vitamins and nail health

rebprest

Lately my fingernails have been bending back (ouch!) way more than they ever have before and my toenails are all cracked. At first I was paranoid I had some kind of fungus but that was ruled out by a physician who said it was trauma to the nail. Now I think I must just not be getting enough of some vitamin that is making my nails weak, since I haven't had any memorable trauma and don't wear pointed or too-tight shoes. Any suggestions on what I should be taking both in pill or food form? I'm guessing one of the factors is iron, since I've been low on that for as long as I can remember. Feel free to look at my diary.
