Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Ok y'all...I bought this to make a face serum, followed the directions on package while adding aloe, dmae, vitamin e, and msm. I make a small batch every few days and add some vitamin c powder to the serum right before applying, making sure the vitamin c is fresh when reaching my skin. It works great. HOWEVER- My main reason for leaving this review is the affect this stuff has had on my joints! I have worked out an average of 6 days a week for 20 years including running an average of 3 miles everyday (many more miles in my twenties). I'm in great shape and fine when moving but when I sit still for more than five minutes I get so stiff when I try to get up (I jokingly call this rigor mortis setting in LOL). I threw a scoop of this stuff in my smoothie one day not thinking anything of it and I kid you not I noticed a difference in my stiffness the next day! I normally limp out of my car when ive been sitting and driving but not after taking this stuff! Ive only had it a couple weeks and have tried to find another reason why my stiffness has left me but this is the only variable. Just bought a bag for a TKD instructor who has same issue, hoping it will help him. Also, i can not get it to dissolve in hot or cold liquids so I definitely recommend blending in a smoothie or maybe stirring it into honey then adding to hot tea like another reviewer mentioned. FYI- It will thicken your smoothie a bit, which is fine with me. It sort of gels liquids. I am so grateful for this stuff! I wish more came in a bag and I wish it was cheaper because im taking a scoop a day but I'm not taking away any stars for that....this stuff is great and I'm not stiff!
