is anyone taking silica or horsetail?

[Nanyanika]

i'm thinking of adding this to my vitamin regime again, those who take it, have you notice a diffrence in the texture of hair in terms of sheen/softness/elasticity? how many milligrams are you taking and how long have you been taking it for? does anyone know how long it takes before seeing results? sorry for all the questions...

i take it and it doesnt say what dosage it is on the bottle. It's the natural form of horsetail i got. Yes, my newgrowth is softer and wavier but im not sure if this is due to silica or MSM

I'm a horsetail girl too!
I take the liquid drops & mix it with juice or foods. I love the tea form as well. I have the capsules of horsetail & silica but that's just when I run out of the liquids

I have noticed faster & stronger hair growth when I take mine! I haven't used them on their own in a while because one of my other supplements has horsetail in it as well.

I take two GNC silica per day. I've been taking it for about two years. I also took MSM for about three years but no longer do so. I took MSM for tendon problems and never noticed anything with it.I believe silica caused my curl pattern to loosen significantly and my new growth is also much shinier. I can't say how long it may take but it certainly happened for me.

I take the horsetail gnc brand 500mg (3 cap a day). it makes my nail grow frast and very strong. My NG also seem to be stronger. It defenitely makes a difference.

i take 440 mg of horsetail capsules per day. i use the puritan's pride brand. i'm not sure if my texture has changed due to the horsetail or the msm. sorry i can't be of more help.
