MSM (Methylsulfonylmethane) 850mg - 90 V-Caps

MSM

MSM Methylsulfonylmethane is the third largest solid component found in the body, a pure white sulfur powder that originates from the ocean. MSM, an organic sulfur found in all living organisms is a non toxic metabolite of DMSO that carries health and nutrition at biochemical levels. It also detoxifies and strengthens immunity, flexibility and blood circulation.

MSM is a food (not a drug or medicine) and plays many roles in the body, including exercising growth of healthy skin, hair and nails. It is needed by the body for healthy connective tissues and joint function, proper enzyme activity and hormone balance, along with the regulating of the immune system. The body uses MSM to create new beneficial healthy cells. Without proper levels of MSM, our bodies are unable to build good, healthy cells, and this leads to illness. Our bodies produce new cells every 24 hours. If your body doesn't receive proper nutrition and building materials, the result is the production of bad, dysfunctional cells, deficient in the basic nutrients that constitute a healthy cell. MSM has a volatile nature, and is quickly lost from food when it is processed, cooked and/or stored. With today's modern diet of cooked and otherwise processed and diluted foods, most, if not all diets, are deficient in this critically important nutrient.

Sulfur is essential for numerous electrochemical, catalytic and structural functions in human metabolism. Sulfur is a key component of MSM which helps connective tissues and joints, and is needed for enzyme activity, hormone balance, and function of the immune system. As a central component of collagen and connective tissue, sulfur assists the body in preventing inflammation and facilitating repair of connective tissues.

MSM is a very safe product because of its inert nature. MSM is nonallergenic, non-pyretic, and has no interfering or undesirable pharmacological effects. You cannot overdose with MSM. It is estimated that the human body uses over a gram of MSM each day, which needs to be replaced every day. Good health practices involve replacing the essential substances that our bodies naturally use or lose through illness or abuse and exertion. The body is much more abused by toxins and free radicals in the metropolitan cities than in rural areas and may require more MSM to maintain an optimal state of good health. The level of disease your body is experiencing will affect the amount of MSM required to maintain daily function and proper cell repair. Our bodies combine MSM and vitamin C synergistically to build healthy new cells.

MSM provides the flexible bond between amino acids in proteins. Without MSM, a new cell is not permeable, and physical osmosis is hindered. These cells lose flexibility as seen by scar tissue, wrinkles, varicose veins, hardened arteries and damaged lung tissues (emphysema), which makes MSM essential for connective tissue, musculoskeletal and overall skin health. Supported by research & multiple patents, MSM in sufficient levels as a dietary supplement may help & improve the following conditions:

• Multiple allergies & chemical sensitivities;
  
• Gastrointestinal disorders;
  
• Improves circulation & enhances cell vitality;
  
• Reduces capillary fragility;
  
• Improves sore, swollen joints;
  
• Reduces hypertension;
  
• Strengthens the immune system;
  
• Reduces the severity of carpal tunnel syndrome;
  
• Improves sluggish memory;
  
• Hyperacidity & upper GI distress, as an excellent
  alternative to antacids & acid blockers;
  
• Increases collagen, improves skin smoothness & elasticity;
  
  .Joint Health
  
  Your cartilageacts as a living shock absorber that cushions and protects your bones from damage during the daily stresses of living, working, and playing. But, unfortunately due to age or even injury, the human body is sometimes unable to regenerate damaged soft tissue fast enough to keep your cartilage, ligaments, and tendons supple and flexible.The result can be pain and swelling.The pain and swelling we know as arthritis occurs when these supporting tissues degenerate, allowing bone to rub against bone, which as anyone who has osteoarthritis will tell you, causes pain.
  
  Osteoarthritis & Rheumatoid Arthritis
  
  Osteoarthritis is the most common type of arthritis. It usually has a gradual onset and begins after the age of forty. The knees, hips, fingers and vertebrae are most susceptible. The joint deterioration is due to faulty or deficient repair of bone and cartilage in the joint. The standard North American diet is deficient in the minerals necessary for proper joint repair; therefore it is not surprising that osteoarthritis is a common concern. Osteoarthritis causes stiffness and joint pain on motion.
  
  Rheumatoid arthritis is the second most common type of arthritis. It usually affects women between the ages of 25 and 50, however there is a juvenile form. The fingers and toes are usually the first to be affected. Other susceptible joints are the wrists, ankles, knees and spine. The cause of rheumatoid arthritis is unknown but heredity does seem to play a role. Joint damage is due a faulty immune reaction in which the body attacks its own tissues. Symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis come and go, joint destruction is variable and joint pain can move around the body. Attacks can be triggered by viral infections or stress.
