MSM (Methylsulfonylmethane) is a naturally occurring sulfur compound found in the normal diets of humans and virtually all other vertebrates. In its purified chemical form, it is an odorless, tasteless, white, water-soluble, crystalline solid. When broken apart by the body, MSM donates sulfur to produce the new compounds required for for use by the body in a variety of functions. MSM dietary supplement is the stable end-product of the methyl-S-methane series of compounds that provide all life with a dominant amount of bio-available sulfur. Sulfur is one of the essential minerals, ranked as a macronutrient in the vertebrate diet. Earlier methionine work and ongoing MSM research indicates that it is the structure of the sulfur donor molecule, not the amount of sulfur, that is critical.

MSM is a form of sulfur found in the tissues and fluids and is the major form of sulfur in the human body. It is an important nutrient for joint tissue where it functions in the stabilization of the connective tissue matrix of cartilage, tendons, and ligaments. It is also important in the health and function of the hair, nails, skin, connective tissue, enzymes, hormones and immunoglobulins. Without adequate and properly delivered sulfur, life functions would cease. MSM deficiencies have been shown to be associated with inflammatory problems, gastrointestinal dysfunction, slow wound healing, brittle toenails and fingernails, defense mechanism of body problems, brittle hair, acne and rashes.
Additional Information
MSM is an organic form of sulfur found in all living organisms. It is the fourth most abundant mineral in the human body (tenth most abundant in the known universe) and is found in every cell. Sulfur provides the chemical links needed to create collagen, which forms and holds the molecular structure of connective tissue. Now MSM Sulfer forms the disulfide bonds in connective tissue that are the links in the glycosaminoglycans chains that form cartilage. MSM dietary supplement is an essential nutrient, not only for connective tissue, but also for all other tissues in the human body. Unfortunately, modern food-processing methods greatly reduce natural MSM levels in foods, so very little is obtained from the diet these days, unless your diet is rich in unprocessed milk, vegetables and grains. Sulfur is abundant in chondroitin sulfate and hyaluronic acid, two constituents that support healthy joint function.
Multiple patents and research supported that, MSM in sufficient levels as a dietary supplement can enhance following conditions:
Gastrointestinal Malfunction of mind or body's
Improves circulation
Allergic responses
Reduces effects of stress
Enhance cell vitality
Enhance regulate insulin production
Improves skin smoothness
Improves skin elasticity
Reduces Discomfort associated with systemic inflammatory Malfunction of mind or body's, including arthritis and night leg cramps.
MSM has also shown beneficial in reducing sluggish memory, and symptoms of problem due to narrowing of air passage and emphysema, reducing post athletic activity fatigue and improved joint flexibility.
MSM with Vitamin C for Additional Joint Support
Vitamins C does a lot of healing by itself, but without MSM to lock with, it doesn't toughen capillary walls. When MSM is added to the diet and taken with Vitamins C, chronic nosebleeds, easy bruising and varicose veins may be relieved. Vitamins C and MSM work synergistically together. Every body is different, so you would need to find what works for you, but it is important when taking Vitamin C to make certain it has the bioflavinoids with it because it is then a complete food.
Now MSM is available in Capsules, Tablets and Liquid form.
Recommended dosage:
Research studies show the body needs a constant supply of MSM dietary supplement for optimum health. The recommended daily dosage is 2000 mg (2 g) taken in divided doses with the morning and evening meals, but it is suggested
that you begin with 1000 mg a day to avoid an overly rapid detoxification rate
