[pct-l] Thin skin

[lbakkar at hotmail.com (Linda Bakkar)]

Maggie,

You say you have tender skin that tears easily, and you think this could be 
part of the problem with your feet while hiking.  Are your fingernails thin 
also?  I had thin skin and fingernails for most of my life (I am 58 now.)  
And I finally found an answer.  I started taking Biotin (2500mcg) each day, 
and not only have my fingernails become strong enough to actually grow out 
without breaking, but my skin has become thicker and healthier.  Even my 
hair seems to have become stronger!  I know it is a long shot, but maybe it 
would be worth a try.  Look it up on the internet.  It is just a vitamin, 
but evidently, I was low in it.
