Well I've been taking a tsp a day off and on and my nails are thicker and stronger...Awesome!
if you think MSM is good you should give food grade Diatomaceous Earth a shot, which is the best source of silica. Silica is the main nutrient for skin and hair.
I bought the powder by NOW Foods, when I run out I'll look into this brand. Thanks :)
hey its not a different brand its a different product, which is silica rich, the best nutrient for skin and hair, connective tissue also. Also acts as a colon cleanser and anti-parasitical.
I second the diatomaceous earth--I've never had a problem with thin nails, but now they grow too fast, and they're hard to trim because they're so strong . . . I also take MSM daily.
How do you guys take it? I add it to smoothies, but it's so bitter and have decided not to add it to them anymore.
Are you taking it with vitamin C? Now foods has a great vitamin C product that is corn free (most forms of vitamin C are corn derived). I think it's called tru-C. Vitamin C is necessary for MSM to be fully absorbed.
ambiguous how much DE do you drink a day, i try to shoot for a tablespoon.
thanks cami!
I sure will look into silica supplements. I haven't been able to find DE.
