Eating nail polish?
Although i dont think it will have any serious health affects on you, its probably best to stop doing this. There are all sorts of chemicals in nail polish that could be potentially harmful to your health. You can get a nail polish that has a really nasty taste to it. Its designed for nail bitters, however i think it would be benefitial in your situation as i dont think you'll keep chewing if it tastes awful. Ask your chemist about it, to see if they stock it

some nail polish contains formaldehyde.

A craving for something not normally regarded as nutritive. For example, dirt. Pica is a classic clue to iron deficiency in children. It also occurs in zinc deficiency. (Pica is Latin for magpie, a bird that gleans all sorts of things for its nest).
