What is the benefit of taking gelatin tablets 650 mg?

I have a friend who worked at baylor university. There was a research program and mice were given a combination of gelatin, vitamin a and vitamin e. After a few months the mice were furry little balls. Since then my friend uses this combination and it grows thick hair for her, it also grows and strengthen nails. Also., i googled gelatin and a company named knox makes gelatin and they even have one formulated for nails. So gelatin is great for nails and skin but i would add the e and a. She just takes a cheap brand of the a and e and takes whatever the bottle says to use. I suggest using kinesiology (muscle testing) to find the right combination of those three products (and also which brand to use), and whether to use liquid or tablet form of gelatin. You should be able to do an internet search to find out about kinesiology or perhaps the local library can help. Any good alternative healer or practitioner can teach you how to muscle test (kinesiology) yourself or have someone else do it to you. Good luck
