What is MSM?

MSM (methyl sulfonyl methane) is an organic sulfur compound naturally occurring in the blood and found in most foods. It is thought that MSM is an important component in proteins, especially those found in the hair, muscles, connective tissue, joints and skin.

Health Benefits

Although the mechanism of action is not entirely understood, MSM seems to help alleviate pain and reduce inflammation associated with the following conditions: arthritis, osteoarthritis, fibromyalgia, chronic back pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, allergies, rheumatoid arthritis, lupus and other auto-immune disorders. Studies also suggest that MSM may be effective in the reduction of muscle spasms, increasing blood flow and helping to maintain and repair cartilage. It is thought that MSM may also help slow the development of cancer. More extensive research needs to be conducted to confirm these claims and prove long-term safety.

Usage Indications

Consult your physician before using an MSM supplement.
General recommended dosage varies depending on reason for use; use as directed. Take MSM with food to avoid stomach upset.
MSM is available in liquid or capsule form for internal use, and powder, lotion, gel, or cream form for topical use. It may take several weeks before symptoms improve.

Arthritis: 500-750mg, 2-3 times daily. Use in conjunction with topical MSM for maximum relief.
Back pain: 500 mg 3 times daily. Use in conjunction with topical MSM for maximum relief.

• Side effects: May include gastrointestinal discomfort, headache or skin rash. Discontinue use and consult your physician if these side effects occur. If MSM increases energy levels, avoid taking before bedtime. Side effects of long-term use are unknown, as more research is needed.
• Indications: MSM supplements should not be consumed by children or pregnant/nursing individuals. Those with any allergy to sulfur should not take MSM. Consult your physician, and use as directed
