I do take blackstrap molasses like 3x a week though..so much for consistency!

I'm taking too many I think. I just started maybe two weeks ago. I've been really drowsy, I don't know if it is me starting school recently or these pills. Maybe it's both. Anyway this is exactly what I have been taking.
Zinc(30mg)-once a day
Iron (18mg)-once a day
Vitamin C (500) 3x
One Source 1x
Evening Primrose oil (500mg) 3x
Flax oil (1000mg) 3x
MSM (500mg) 3x
I was also taking 5mg of Biotin prior to starting these others vitamins but I ran out and plan on getting some more.

Per day
Biotin 1 mg
EPO 1000mg
Vitamin B5 500mg
MSM 750mg
Multivitamin with minerals inc iron (1)
zinc gluconate 15mg
I take the MVitamin,zinc and EPO daily without fail. But the others on alternate days and take double the dose to make up for the day i missed.
the texture of my normally hard new growth is much much softer and my hair is stonger. i think the hair growth is faster but cant be sure since i never measure. /images/graemlins/ohwell.gif
oh yeah i avoid taking the Mvitamin and zinc tablet 2gether cos i heard zinc and iron together can inhibit the absorption of the other so i wait a few hours between

i'm going to restart taking pills for three months or till i take my braids out i will only take two because the main reason i stopped was because of the effect it was having on me physically but also because i couldnt see myself taking a butt load of pills every day. i will use my vitamin shoppe biotin 5mg and i will pick up twin lab pantothenic acid in 500mgs. i have kal's silica plus i remember it makes your hair shiny but i heard it also makes your face shiny and you have to use the restroom more often. i dont want to have a shiny face and i already drink enough water to drown a horse so i dont need another reason to go to the restroom. i will take these pills for 3 months and see what the results are. God bless you all.

I got this from the wellness site....
WA: What vitamins or supplements can nourish healthy hair?
Laboranti: A healthy, varied diet helps to provide the nutrients necessary for healthy hair. Also, a daily multivitamin/mineral supplement can help meet daily nutritional needs. Optimal hair growth occurs when there are no nutrient deficiencies present. In particular, normal stores of iron and normal blood concentrations of certain B vitamins, such as folate and vitamin B-12, are also necessary. A B-complex or Super B-complex supplement may a be helpful to nourish hair if B vitamins are lacking in the diet.
WA: If I am losing my hair or going prematurely gray can vitamins help me?
Laboranti: Malnutrition, starvation and eating disorders are nutrition-related factors that can affect hair loss and color, but unless those problems are a result of malnutrition vitamins may not help. On the other hand, healthy individuals, who experience increased hair loss or shedding, may be deficient in iron. Additional iron can help those who are iron deficient, and an iron supplement is recommended. Along with a balanced diet, a daily multivitamin/mineral supplement can help ensure you are getting all the nutrients necessary for healthy, vibrant hair.
