kcmatthew Yup, I saw that same episode of NBC Nightly News and that's exactly what was reported.
Its funny because I was on a pretty regular regimen of specific supplements for about a year. Then I moved back to the US from overseas, started a new job, bought a house...basically my life and routine got turned upside down and I got off track. I started up again one month ago and I completely see the difference! I take MSM, silica, Omega 3-6-9, chlorella, and a multi. My nails are rock hard, my hair is bouncing back from a setback at a rapid pace, and my acne (which had flared up) is subsiding. ALL in the last month. I know now that I'm seeing real benefit from what I am taking.
Thats my take on this whole thing. Try something new, but only stick with it if you see real benefit in your body.
