Depending upon how old you are or situation Kelly, it can be caused by a hormonal lack too. I know that estrogen changes can affect any keratin substance including ones nails. It is only a thought, but I was under the impression that gelatin had been disproven as any real help to strengthen ones nails? I may be wrong however as my source was some time ago..
