East of Eden,
MSM brands - the best way to tell is to just try what you bought. I remember reading one post where a woman was taking one brand of MSM with no results, then changed to Carlson's and got results from it.
Protein powder is a good idea if you get a good one. If you get one that is soy based, make sure to take plenty of B12, L-Tyrosine, and kelp because if it is an effective one it may slow the thyroid. In the past when women have been on herbal routines and on a whey protein powder, they don't get far. I think it may be because the protein binds with the phytoestrogens. It is better to avoid the powders for NBE in my opinion. If you want to do soy, drink a cup of soy milk per day. Make sure that it is non-GMO soy.
Kelp - Nature's Way. Follow the label. For L-Tyrosine, use Twin Lab. I think that those are 500mg. Once per day should be good. B12, yep 100mcg is very good, but take it in a B complex, not B12 by itself.
