Remedy for Brittle Nails

Do you have fragile and brittle nails? Did you know that by using a few simple ingredients like germ oil you can obtain supple and healthy-looking nails, while the nail’s natural silky sheen is restored!

This healing soak not only softens the nail cuticles and adds a brilliant shine to the nails but is also the ideal solution to the question of how to get rid of dead skin cells.

Why does it work? Experts have always said that the nutritional contents of wheat are mostly enclosed in the germ of the grain. The more the grains are refined, the more we lose the benefits.Wheat germ refers to the embryo of the seed, which germinates into a plant. The germ is loaded with essential nutrients such as plant proteins, fiber, vitamins, minerals (phosphorus, zinc, iron, selenium and potassium) and fatty acids which have proven to be beneficial for hair, skin and overall health. Wheat germ oil is extracted from the germ and is said to be equally as beneficial.

Germ oil is a great source of vitamins - B6, Folic acid and E, wheat germ oil is said to act as an anti-ageing agent for the skin. Vitamin E is a strong anti-oxidant and it promotes healthy skin as it prevents many skin problems like psoriasis, eczema and dry skin. Vitamin B, on the other hand, helps in repairing tissue damage and promotes tissue growth.
Then we have sea salt, which contains the minerals that have rejuvenating and healing properties making it a popular addition to baths. For this aim, add smooth grain sea salt (2 tbsp) and four drops each of lemon essential oils and wheat germ oil. Immerse your fingernails and pat dry. After that, apply a foot cream or a moisturizing on your feet and hands. To get amazing results, follow this natural cure around 2 to 3 times per week.
