Bonehead said:Coconut oil.
I love coconut oil. I bought it to use for cooking; but I don't. I just use it as a moisturizer on legs, arms and especially hands. It does work. I hate wearing gloves - I know I should, especially when I'm gardening. I tell my gardening friends (some of them have really pretty nails) that you can always tell a gardener by their nails. I can't grow mine; they split and break. But lately they are looking better and I think it could be the coconut oil.
I do eat some nuts every day; walnuts or almonds and I use almond milk for my cereal (when I eat that).
