im wanting to try an HA/collagen supplement but cant buy one online because i don't have a credit card or cheking account. I've gathered from other threads that source naturals is the way to go, but i can't seem to find the specific supplement everyone has had results with. anyone know of a chain store besides whole foods that sells this?
- i did find this supplement on vitaminshoppe.com, but i can't tell if it has the right type of collagen in it: http://www.vitaminshoppe.com/store/en/browse/sku_detail.jsp?id=SR-7393#prodInfo

Hey Carekate,

I got your HA pills thanks. but I had already bought some of the SN pills from Whole Foods and they look dif from the ones you sent. Mine are thinner and darker. Can you tell me why? You've been using the same brand for a while now right?

Maybe the dosage is different – I’ve just learned that SN has a new formulation (100 mg pills), versus the ones I’ve been using that are 50mg. See this thread for links to the different pills: http://www.essentialdayspa.com/forum/viewthread.php?tid=9839&highlight=source+naturals I don’t know if that accounts for the differences you see in your pills, but I certainly didn’t send you anything other than what I said it was. Take them yourself or send them back to me, but please don’t throw them in the trash as they aren’t cheap.

Oh no, I was just curious. I looked at my bottle and it does say that there is 100mg of HA in it.

So I'll just double up with those.

Thanks!

Well, I've tried them and was too anxious to remember to measure.

There is something going on in the lip area and I def notice when I apply the Lipfusion.

Even my daughter asked and I told her. She wanted to try it as well. SO I gave her the lower dose that carekate sent me. She already has beautiful lips and didn't need help but her lips look plumper. She was always borrowing my LF anyway so I thought she would lay off now. lol.

so anyway, who knows how this works and I have to say frankly, I don't care... This is gonna be big.

PS. I had problems with my knees in recent years. Painful to get up from Indian style position in my other daughter's music class. Now I don't feel anything. Really has a lot of benefits. Just love it.

Now I see what wenrdwy is talking about: it looks like Source Naturals reformulated the 50mg HA/collagen pills so that they are smaller, thinner and just easier to swallow. Yay! No more choking on horse pills. I guess the reformulation was also the reason I had a hard time getting my hands on the Source Naturals from around November-January, because all of the online retailers had sold out of their current/old supply and Source Naturals wasn't shipping out any new stuff until they'd finished the reformulation....
