Is it true that jello makes the fingernails stronger?!


Question: About fingernails


Answers: About fingernails

Not jello. The gelatin that makes jello form into a set gel is what works to strengthen hair and nails.

idk
but i know that if you have more calcium then it will make them stronger for sure.

I don't know of any evidence, but it is plausible: Jell-O is made from gelatin, which contains the same proteins as those which comprise fingernails. But I suspect any protein source would do as well.

Jello is just sugar and gelatin, I doubt it does.

Yes, and pudding makes your boobs grow.

It isn't jello, it is gelatin. You can buy gelatin capsules to take by mouth and they really do work.

yes it does

Lol, funny question : ). Fingernails are made of protien and sulfur stuff, nither of that is in jell-o. hope that helps i guess.

yes! and your hair too.

yes

It is true that gelatin helps your fingernails get stronger. Another option is to take a protein supplement. There is one called Biotin. It is very affordable, and it helps your nails and hair. It comes in capsule form and can be bought at Walmart, or most any grocery or pharmacy.

Well considering that jello is fingernails.
Well horse hooves. that's what gelatin is made from: GRound up Hooves! that's what gives it such a tough weird texture it adds that structure when desolved. I guess you can't taste it, nasty to think about though.
I would say that after your body breaks it down, it will use the base nutrients for whatever it needs. Supposedly gelatin can be good for joints and other cartilige material, like your fingernails

Jello does contain gelatin, but the claim is for pure gelatin. To get the amount of "recommended" gelatin called for in the various media ads, you would have to eat several bowls of jello. There is no clinical trial evidence to support the claim that consuming gelatin will increase nail or hair strength! All the evidence is purely anecdotal! Although genetics plays and important roll in nail strength, the only clinically proved way to have strong nails is to have a healthy body. This translates into having a nutritionally balanced diet. If you have healthful eating habits, gelatin supplements will not be needed. If you do not have healthful eating habits, your body will not be healthy no matter how much gelatin you consume. Consequently you will have weak fingernails, toenails and hair, as well as a host of other problems that may not surface until later in life.
