• Vala, 1/4 teaspoon equals 1000mg of MSM. I get the powder because i hate swallowing pills. It is recommended to take 1/4 or 1/2 teaspoon twice a day – so you could take up to a teaspoon which is 4000 mg I guess. David Wolfe apparently takes up to 3 …

• MSM will work better taken internally than in shampoo. When mixed with the other ingredients of the shampoo, it will just die. MSM is very easily destroyed. Hair is dead material so it can’t absorb anything. Your scalp will take in it but won’t get …

• If you are using mouth wash, just for fresh breathe than way not just chew on a mint leave or something. Otherwise, I would think a salt rinse would work quite nicely as a rinse. (maybe add some mint to it to make it tasty?)

• Don’t forget to avoid toothpastes with SLS in it too! Some “natural” toothpastes have it unfortunately.

• Hi! yes, I believe there are a few threads that discuss this – I think they are in the Other section. But anyhow, I use nothing really. If I use any soap for any reason, I use Dr. Bronners or a sea salt bar. The only other thing I use is MSM lotion …

• You can make it yourself too. I am sure you can find a recipe online. You can use it make things tangy. But probiotics work just as good to do that.
