I reread Ray Peat's article on Gelatin. I have been supplementation with gelatin 10-20g for the past two days, but haven't noted any effects. Someone commented to me tonight, though, that I seemed wired. Has anyone supplemented with gelatin? Any results? |

Yes, I supplement with gelatin i.e. I eat bone broths once a week. Changes? Over the course of a couple of years my nails are stronger and more supple and I recover from exercise and illness faster. My skin is in great condition. I would say you may need to wait a little longer than 2 days to see any difference, though. |

I eat it often. Definitely noticed an improvement in my skin and nails. Here's a recipe idea: chocolate pudding with gelatin! http://raspberrycoconut.com/2011/07/25/chocolate-moo-sse/ For more Paleo hacks: http://paleohacks.com/questions/30309/is-gelatin-an-ingredient-ok-to-use-on-the-paleo-diet#ixzz1TSalwRrf |

I read Ray Peat on gelatin too (linked from Seth Roberts). Even though Peat seemed a little nutty, I tried gelatin for sleeping and found that it worked just like he suggested. When I can't sleep, I mix about one tablespoon of gelatin powder (from Amazon) with hummus or squash soup right before going to bed. The first time I did it I woke up under the impression that my fiance had forgotten to turn the light off. But no light was on; the sun was rising, and I had slept so soundly that I didn't realize that 8 hours had passed. |

I know a guy who loves Jello. He claims it strengthens his nails and hair. Not gonna argue with him, but its probably just an excuse to eat Jello. |

I've had an exfoliating eczema on my right thumb for years that sometimes would get so bad that the skin would crack and bleed and swell and was so sore it was useless for about a week at a time. I started doing gelatinous bone broth a little over a month ago and for the first time in years the skin on that thumb is clear and smooth.

I tried two tablespoons of great lakes gelatin mixed in water. Got a massive migraine a few hours later. At that point, I got religion, and started making my own broth. |

I put Knox in soups, stews, chili, etc. My nails and hair have improved. Hopefully other parts too. |

As usual, Ray Peat publishes a laundry list of non-arguments. Ignore anybody who (i) doesn't include citations and (ii) whose citations don't say what he/she says they say. |
