Ladies who are taking Manetabolism, how are you liking it? What results have you gotten? Are the pills big; easy to swallow??
 
I've been wanting to try MR for over a year now. I finally ordered yesterday and should receive it tomorrow, I can't wait to start that stuff. I reordered 2 bottles of country life maxi hair because it gave me good results last year.

I have a cart full of vitamins from vitacost that I need to pay for. Hopefully I will receive these by mid month because I need to get back to BSL asap. My hair has been in poor shape for the past 4 months.

Also I'm currently taking 4mg sometimes 5mg Biotin daily. I also take ACV for my skin and digestion and hyaulronic acid. My multi vitamin is from wegmans ultra woman.

I love Manetabolism. I'm on my 10th bottle and My hair has definitely grown! If you go through this thread or the 2015 Manetabolism thread you'll find my progress pics. I haven't noticed a difference in thickness though.

I rarely break out which is miraculous because I've definitely struggled with adult acne. My minimal breakouts could also be because I take zinc.

I personally don't think the pills are big being that I used to take the GNC ultranourish hair horse pills. I find them easy to swallow.
 
Checking in!

Still taking Manetabolism! I missed a couple days last month when I started teaching summer school but other than then I've been consistent. I'm on my 10th bottle.

I'm still inconsistent with my mineral rich :-( but I enjoy the taste so I'm debating on whether or not I want to reorder.

Couldn't wait for hubs to unpack so I could uncap my bottles. Excited to the moon. My hair has been itching unbearably in the last couple of days, I really wanna relax on Monday but my scalp has me digging like a tashcan mouse.

I don't sweat in my hair/scalp so Im puzzled as to the new flare up of scabs and itching. What's a girl to do
 
Maybe I'll start taking Manetabolism after I start using my unopened folic acid.

My birthday is in 2 weeks and I asked for MSM.
I'm still taking my garlic pills which will be finished this week, gelatin pills, and multi-vitamin which should be finished this week.
 
@Leo24Rule yes girl I see you asked for a length check tee as well :grin: what results have you gotten from taking gelatin. I just started the solgar brand gelatin supplements on Saturday. I'm hoping for improved skin and hair thickness.
 
@PureSilver I just started taking Spring Valley brand of gelatin pills now going on 2 weeks and so far just notice my nails getting longer and stronger. My skin improved with a glow due to drinking Bamboo tea. My hair is getting thicker probably due to a number of things because over a month ago I started:
a) Taking a multi-vitamin (2nd bottle almonst gone)
b) Took HSN Andrew Lessman's Hair Skin Nails pills
c) Drink Bamboo Tea
d) 2 weeks ago made my own concoction of Shea Butter (included castor oil & other oils) which I apply to my hair daily
e) Wearing Protective Styling

How many capsules do you take daily?

@Leo24Rule
Solgar brand which I just started taking on Saturday has 1680mg of gelatin and 27mg of calcium. I took 1 capsule on Saturday 2 capsules yesterday which I emptied and I just emptied 3 capsules in my drink after seeing your response.
 
I returned my unopened bottle of MSM to HSN after doing research on fibroids and found out those do not help with the situation.

I'm still taking my multi-vitamin & power green pills from HSN in addition to the gelatin pills.
 
@Leo24Rule i don't know honestly why I did, maybe I was thinking it would penetrate my system faster without having to break down the capsule, but then again the capsule itself is also gelatin. I only did it that one time though.
 
Checking in, faithfully popping. Hair is much stronger and face is more radiant except for 3 zits that popped up over the weekend but I treat that with ACV & salycidic acid wipes.
 
My oh My --- Every since the upgrade of this site, I have not been able to post or to renew my membership --- but after having to file a dispute with paypal and send multiple messages to the admin --- I'm back!!!!!! I have lot's of updates and pictures that I will be sharing.

I am 5 months pregnant -- so I had to come off Hair Infinity and mineral rich. I did it by choice but I can attest that my hair feels a lot thinner these days. The prenatal vitamins should be making up for the slack from not using the Hair Infinity and Mineral Rich --- but I have yet to see the fruits of that labor.

Pictures will be posted soon.
 
I missed this challenge, but there's 4 more months in the year, so I'm in. So far today, I took

-Twinlab MaxiLife Collagen Type II
-Source Naturals HA

-1000 mg Calcium with magnesium and vit D
-1000 mg Vitamin C
-Beautifully Bamboo Hair Supplement

-Biotin

I have quite a bit of vitamins to take so I need to be in this challenge until they are all done so that I can only repurchase the ones I think are doing me some good:yep:.
 
So the garlic and black seed supplement is amazing at killing shedding and even less breakage. I can tell when I missed mire than 4 days because the shedding slowly starts back.

@Smiley79 how much have you been taking (dosage) and what results have you seen so far?

I have been taking the 1000 mcg dosage... just one to two pills a day.
In my case, since I'm dealing with the alopecia issue, my growth goals are going a bit slower than I'd like but I do notice that I am not experiencing any significant hair loss so I attribute the Biotin as a factor, among others, to what is helping me retain my hair during this alopecia ordeal.
 
Just took my vitamins for the day. I am really thankful for this thread - it keeps me on target with my vitamin intake.
 
Staying on track with my supplement and vitamin intake. Just took my daily dose of collagen powder mixed with vanilla 2 vitamin C capsules 100omg each, my women's multivitamin and vitacost HSN
 
Since I had my hair consultation with Komaza in August, they recommended the following for me - I try to do it all everyday, but it's a lot. I'm 57, so some of the recommendations are for older people people like me.
I'm taking the following:

Country Life Maxi-Hair Maximized
L-Cysteine (1500 mg)
NAC (1200 mg) - this is more for my lung health than hair
Vitamin D
Super Greens (scoopful in 8 oz of water or juice)
1 TBS Black Cumin Seed Oil
2 TBS Blackstrap Molasses (dissolved in hot water and drank when cooled)
1 raw protein shake or more a day
