Add 1 teaspoon, about 4 grams, of MSM powder to your shake. This natural sulfur has tremendous benefits. According to Judy Lindberg McFarland, an expert on vitamins and natural foods, sulfur is "necessary for healing and repair of most tissues in the body, especially our skin. Sulfur slows down the aging process. It is called 'nature's beauty mineral' because sulfur keeps hair glossy and smooth, the complexion clear and youthful and the nails strong." It is also excellent for joint health. While this ingredient does not have any weight loss qualities, its other benefits make it beneficial to take everyday.
Since MSM has a slightly bitter taste, you may want to take it separately from your shake or take it in capsule form.
