Where's the cheapest place to buy this stuff? I've only seen L-Cysteine at Whole Foods Market where I got it the first time I took it...Does WalMart sell this stuff for cheap?
Thanks for the heads up JOI!JOI said:you can go to www.vitamins.com this is puritan pride just at a cheaper price everything is 70% off, But for a limited time only, So Hurry!!
I brought the L-Cysteine vitamins for $3.27, Along with a bunch of other vitamins while there on sale.
Yeah, L-Cysteine is different than L-Cystine. I think you have to be even more cautious with taking L-Cystine. I remember doing research about L-Cysteine and came across L-Cystine and they are different amino acids.CurlyCrly said:Unless, they've changed it, L-Cysteine is not in HF37. L-Cystine is in HF37. Although both are beneficial to hair, it is my understanding that they are not really the same amino acid. I could be wrong, but I believe that the mg of L-Cystine in step two they list is for the entire day/dosage of 4-6 pills, not per pill. I am taking amino acids from the vitamin shoppe and it lists the dosage as 5 pills per day and gives the total mg. It is not per pill either, but for most of the amino acids I am getting 2 to 3 times more mg than what is in the HF37 dosages. My pills are much larger though, but they don't make me sick like the HF37 did.
