Do you need msm + glucosamine for the heightmaxing benefits or is just glucosamine enough? I dont want to waste money on msm if it doesnt help anyways
 
The idea of Gluccosamine + MSM is to keep your morning height through the day, not to grow taller than your base.
I know. But is taking glucosamine enough for that effect or do you need the msm too?

ahh, i didn’t know that. How does that work?
it creates hydrated discs keeping you taller throughout the day fighting spinal compression. But the effect is minimal and not worth it imo

You need MSM also. MSM is what’s mainly gonna do all the work and is going to get you the fast results.

Glucosamine is for building up your cartilage long term I’m pretty sure

I’m planning on taking 6g ed (3 morning, 3 at night) for the first 2 weeks and then I’m tapering down to 4g ed.

Edit: you can buy a mix that has both of them. If you shop at Costco they have it

There’s mainly anecdotal evidence about how it retains morning height by thickening cartilage all around the body.

Reports say it helps retain 0-1.25 inches of morning height. It works great for some while it has little to no effect for others.

seems worth it as msm and glucosamine on their own have nice health benefits

For sure.

I’m planning on doing it for 8 weeks to see if I get any benefit. I’m also on coloring supplements and I’m getting pregabalin soon.

Going to make a thread showing results no bs bc I haven’t seen much info on msm with glucosamine on here

yea but usually the doses are fucked up. You need way more msm compared to glucosamine and you cant do that if the pills are already pre dosed

8 weeks is not enough
They need a ton of time like 3 months

I’m pretty sure the glucosamine dose only has to be low to reap the benefits, but MSM needs to be 4g at least to get the quickest results.

When I take the one at Costco bc it’s pre dosed I’ll be taking in a lot extra glucosamine which has no negative or positive effect. But for me money isn’t an issue.

Let me know if you find a better solution

I mean you can also just buy msm powder and glucosamine pills seperately to create your own dose ratio

Is it true that msm gives you lighter eyes and better eyelashes, or is that cope?

Maybe the msm eye drops but I’m not sure. Probably only very lightly. Idk about the lashes
