I work in food service so I'm always wearing gloves and washing dishes. My nails have been taking a beating. They so brittle and soft and they break so easy. What can I do for them?

Wear clear nail polish
Thank you for your suggestion unfortunately we cannot wear any polish at all at where I work
Please talk to your doctor before starting this to make sure it won't contraindicate anything you already take or affect any other health issues!! Safety first! Ask the doctor supplements with biotin would be helpful for you. I have a friend who swears by it. Her doctor gave her the recommendation and it works.
I can't take it because it can affect a medication I take, so when I get problems with my nails being brittle (the winter is worst for me), I up my intake of almonds and blueberries. Fish and eggs are supposed to be good also, but they are two foods I do not eat.
I do have health issues but when Im home on days off my nails are fine its at work with all the dishes I do my nails get soft and break. But I will check with drs before I take any pills different than what I take now. Thank you for your suggestion
Twice that has already been said about visiting your doctor.
Also, do you treat your cuticles to cream or oil daily? This always seems to help me when I start to notice my nails getting brittle and splitting.
