I found one in NZ that worked but haven't been able to find any here in the US

I have had problems with splitting nails and my doctor told me to dilute a table spoon of knocks gelatin in warm water and drink it few times a week or eat a lot of Jello. I also use corn huskers lotton to keep the cutical moist and also good for the hands.
