Gelatin, Fingernails, Pineapple.

I have been told in the past that products containing gelatin strengthen fingernails.

I know that pineapple in jello keeps the gelatin from setting.

Is pineapple, by extension, therefore bad for the fingernails?

Only if you put it directly on the fingernails.

Perfecto! Thank you, DDG. This is, unfortunately, the kind of thing that runs through my head whilst sitting at traffic lights.

And by the way, it’s only fresh pineapple that won’t set. Canned pineapple works just fine.
