I recently increased my intake
of MSM and noticed the tips
of my nails are looking whiter
and are actually growing!

Could this be a coorelation???

Oh yes LR -- my nails showed a great deal of improvement. I take 1 gram of MSM every day - not as much as some here, but I think it's been most beneficial.

Cheers!

Thanks Gren for your ideas......my
nails are so slow growing (if at all
sometimes) and quite thin and I
think this might have helped!

I thought about increasing my
biotin intake but I really don't
want to take more pills! UGH! :rolleyes:

I've been taking 1500 mg. of MSM a day for over a year now, and I haven't noticed any improvement in my nails... they're still weak and brittle and peeling, and I've finally given up and started keeping them cut short. :(

How much MSM are you taking now, LongRed? Maybe I'm just not taking enough.

Hey there Princes,
I'm currently taking 3,000mg of MSM. I'm not
sure if that's the helping thing here or not! ;)

Thanks Danielle for your biotin
update! I have to probably increase
my intake of that too!
