Just thought I'd give everyone an update on certain MSM brands that I've tried, and maybe you could do the same, so that way, next time we are out shopping, we can pick good ones without all the trial and error.
Jarrows Formula
Cost: Sorry I totally forgot, but I got it at whole foods
Water Test: Totally failed. Both the capsule floated, and then I just dumped the powder in, it floated as well.
EffectivenessI still had some soreness from working out etc. I can't say that I noticed an improved growth rate to be honest. I had been taking these for about 3-4 months. They come in 750mg/100 capsules, and I was taking a little over 5,000 mg.
I didn't like this one because like I said I noticed no real improvement with Muscle or Joint soreness, nails did not improve and nothing major that I could tell with the hair.
The next one that I am retrying is "Now" brand MSM. It is powder form and passed the water test with no problem. I know that it takes about 4-6 weeks to see any results with MSM so I'm curious to see how my hair fairs at the end of January with consistant use.
Also curious to see how it helps with my after workout sorness. I know that when I took this before (but was inconsistant) I was NEVER sore after a work out, and I attribute that to the MSM because I was working hard enough.
Any good reveiws of MSM brands you like?
Please tell the name, the amount that was effective for you, and what the results were that made you think it was effective /images/graemlins/grin.gif
