review/update
done with the four months of phyto, not taking anything in place of it during the break. Have been doing jucing regularly since coming back from vacation and adding flax seed oil, wheat grass juice powder and turmeric to the juice.
Still taking vit D 5000iu, b12 1000mg, chlorella, selenium 200mg and evening primrose a week before and the week during my monthly.
hair - I wouldn't say I've had phenomenal growth on phyto for the first run, but I have consistent growth and that growth is thicker and less frizzy than the existing length of my hair. for example, after I wash my hair, I can plainly see a difference, almost like I'm transitioning from a mild texturizer to natural. I have had hair extreme growth in other places which means I see my wax lady 2x as much, but I dont have hair sprouting in new places.
nails - good strong nails; have to trim once a week, in the past nails were prone to splitting and breaking on the side under the nail bed.

Tad update:

Haven't taken my vitamins in about a week but I switched to neocell derma matrix powder with has collagen and hyalauronic acid. Hyalauronic acid is a grip on its own and I wanted all three together and not a powder here and a pill there. Also has amla and vitamin c (which aids in collagen production).

Can't speak on hair but skin looks very nice. HA is supposed to be good for hair growth.

Popping faithfully my new HSN vitamins from spring valley that i got at walmart for 6 times less than a one month supply of Manetabolism plus. The awesome fact is that i am 2 weeks in and my nails have been springing like weeds, i haven't seen any significant hair changes yet but i decided today that i will give it a fair 3 months trial before moving on. Since my body shows the effects of any new vitamin i take 98% of the time within a week, i will see when i have finished the first bottle if my hair receives any benefit.
