blood work results after using Patch for more than a month
It can take a while for deficiencies to show up. Your body stores most things. I wouldn't rely on labwork comparisons on the patch for at least 6 months; I'd prefer a year. You could take nothing for one month and still have great labs.

Grim is right. I've been using the patches for a few months now, and my hair and nails are screaming their approval so far. I do take extra calcium just to keep my stool from being too loose and I'm sure I'll bet some benefit from it as well.
