More About MSM

MSM - Sulphur - so good. The amazing story of a well kept nutritional secret.

MSM, methyl sulphonyl methane, is a sulphur compound that occurs naturally in our bodies and in our most common foods. Sulphur is found in all body cells, and in many amino acids, vitamins, enzymes and hormones essential for our health. The mineral is needed for the formation of collagen, which is the fibrous substance in connective tissue. Sulphur is therefore essential for the production of cartilaginous tissue whose elasticity is especially suited to provide support to the body. Sulphur is a significant constituent of skin, hair and nails, and has been called the "beauty mineral".Sulphur levels in our tissues are known to vary for a number of reasons. A daily MSM supplement provides natural and easily absorbed sulphur to promote beauty and health. Supplementing with an MSM product can make a real softie out of you.

Why use it?
If you have ever seen a cat or dog chewing on grass and wondered why they are so interested in it, the nutrient they are after is almost certainly sulphur. Sulphur is the third most abundant substance in our bodies and a human being needs to consume the equivalent of a 1/8 of a teaspoon per day. As a lot of the sulphur we used to get is lost in modern food processing today it has become quite common for us to suffer from sulphur deficiencies in our diets.

What does it do?
Sulphur’s role in your diet and in your body is to make things soft. Things external and things internal. At the most fundamental level it softens the cell walls enabling toxins to be more easily released and nutrients to be more easily absorbed. It is also a component of insulin and is therefore vital for energy production.

It can be recommended for any situation where the removal of accumulated "baddies" is the goal. This would apply for example to the heavy metal mercury that might be absorbed from fillings. The list of applications for MSM goes on...and on.

What next?
MSM is available as powder, capsules and torpedo easy to swallow tablets and as a skin lotion, eye and ear drops and most recently as a soap. The 99.99% pure MSM is available in vegi caps and easy to swallow torpedo tablets. The advanced MSM Max – guaranteed to be the best MSM you can buy anywhere – is available in both powder and easy to swallow tablets.

What Does MSM Do?

Makes arteries and veins flexible, elastic, and permeable, which allows for oxygen and nutrients to pass through the walls to nourish the surrounding tissues.

Blocks cell-receptor sites for histamine, which triggers allergic symptoms.

Builds 'disulfide bonds' which hold tissues together in a flexible state forming part of the body's physical structure, including protein, collagen, glucosamine, skin, and nails.

Softens and reduces scar tissue internally as well as externally.

Free radicals coat and cling to artery walls and restrict nutrients from passing into the surrounding tissue. Then they become hazardous and poisonous to the body. MSM builds flexible arteries, which won't allow free radicals to adhere to the cell walls.

Promotes blood flow and regulates proper blood pressure.

Provides an undesirable condition and environment for non-healthy or cancerous cells.

Breaks up calcium deposits.

It plays an important part in tissue breathing.

Completely prevents the breakdown of cartilage of joints.

Allows amino acids and other nutrients to do their assigned tasks, which depend on natural sulphur and healthy arteries to transport them to the work area. These amino acids are scavengers of 125 free radicals; they also eliminate toxic metals such as lead, cadmium, mercury, and aluminium.

Shortens the recovery and healing time from injuries and surgery.

Assists in building new healthy cells on an ongoing basis. The body is in a constant state of repair and completely replaces almost every cell each year.

Assists the digestive system in functioning properly.

It helps to maintain overall body balance between acidity and alkalinity.

It helps the liver to secrete bile.

Inhibits pain impulses along the major nervous system network called 'C Fibers'.

Will get rid of parasites in the intestinal tracts.

Reduces swelling of joints as in sprains, fractures, and infection, and prevents the breakdown of joint cartilage.

Increases one's energy levels. Some prefer not to take it at bedtime for that very reason.

It is an analgesic.

Because of MSM's performance and effectiveness, it reduces the amount of medication needed, which also lessens the exposure to the inevitable side effect complications that results from constant drug intake, affecting the bowels, liver, kidney, blood pressure.

Allergy symptoms are reduced.
