Hi Ladies, thank you for the info.
Do you take the powder with tap water? (Just concerned about the website from my first post).
Do you have to pop a Vit C pill everytime you take the MSM? It's just that I'm currently taking one capsule of Vit C per day (it's 750mg); and wondered if this would be okay. (I'm currently taking this to try and up my progesterone).
BUT re: the Vit C - I've read a thread on here that MSM should be taken with at least 1/4th part of vitamin C. So for example if you take 4000mg of MSM a day you should take it with 1000mg of vitamin C for it to work properly. However, this seems a lot to me, because over 1000mg of Vit C can cause problems (sickness, nausea, diarrhea, etc). And I've read between 6-10mg daily is the recommended amount of MSM, so this will really push the Vit C up.
I've also read that if you take MSM you should take Molybdenum (but I've not heard anyone mention it on here or the long hair forum). It mentions it in this link, however I don't really understand why you should take it (if anyone can simplify for me that would be great) - http://altmedangel.com/msm.htm
Re: the MSM being a detox (skin breakouts & headaches), but I've read drinking plenty of water helps as it cleans the tissues and blood of toxins so might help.
