Questions about MSM

[member5959]

Alright, i've been on GNC MegaMen multivitamin (one tablet daily) and on a green tea extract (one tablet daily) for about two weeks....I've been looking at other people's regimens and see that they are using MSM, should i wait a couple weeks or months before i add this? or is it a good idea to start this now? Also what brands of MSM do you guys use? And is there any danger of using too many of these supplements?

I added msm to my regimen about six months back for two months and it did nothing.

MSM is generally a good suplement to take - regardless of whether or not it helps w/ your hairloss.

You can start it anytime (AFAIK).

Thin, how much were you taking? The amount varies from person to person or so the site linked below claims.

I have boosted my intake to 8 grams a day of the powdered form which is two heaping teaspoons two times a day, I intend to stay at that level for 3 to 4 weeks, then I will back off to 3 to 4. I just increased it so its too early to tell if it is helping. I didn't see much change at 3 grams, faster nail growth and a bit faster hair growth from my healthy existing hair is about all.

I will Let everyone know if the higher dose makes a difference in a few weeks.

If you like MSM, I'd buy it in bulk from these guys. It's the best value I've found. I've been buying the 5lb bags from there for almost 2 years and they're great.
