Hard for me to tell. I eat only 1000-1200 calories a day. Since I am on such a restricted diet, I take a lot of different supplements. My hair is growing but I can't determine which supplement is doing it.

I will say that I take a different form of L-cysteine. I take N-Acetyl Cysteine which is better absorbed by the body. They both protect hair from becoming brittle. One thing though, with the L-cysteine and N-acetyl Cysteine, they have a tendency to deplete the body of vitamin c.

One thing I have learned about taking supplements is this. Check interactions between them. With a lot of them, you cannot take 1 without having to take another because of the way they depend on each other.
 
The strangest thing....I've been knowingly not taking my vitamins for atleast a week and a half. Tomorrow I promised myself I'm gonna get back on track. I still have the hair, skin and nails one but I need to get off my butt and get a multivitamin.

I'm still taking Hairfinity but I stopped taking the extra Biotin and MSM. The MSM was too much to remember and I got some weird acne-like bumps on my left hand that have now gone away.:nono: Maybe it was the MSM but for now just the Hairfinity and my hair's still growing like a weed.:yep: I've been taking my vitamins pretty faithfully lately. I missed Thursday but I had menstrual cramps lol.
 
taking multivitamins for 3 months straight now. I don't see any diff in my hair (its growing @ its normal pace) & I don't feel any diff in my body, like energy wise. I'm still very lazy. Sigh.... *shrugs*

What I would do is try taking them one at a time at different times in the day. Make sure there is enough time in between for the vits to go through your system. If you don't notice anything then start back adding one vit at a time until you notice the headaches. Also it may be the combination of certain ones so seperating them may help.
