MSM a nutritional forgotten link

MSM (methylsulfonylmethane) is a naturally occurring sulfur compound that has a multitude of functions in the body. MSM is found in body fluids and tissues and is found in dairy (milk) and a variety of fruits, vegetables, and grains. It functions as a medicinal active ingredient at higher doses than normally reached by food alone. It has a good response to gastric upset, inflammation of the mucous membranes, pain associated with muscle, skeletal, and allergy problems.

 

Why add MSM to your diet?

MSM is found in most unprocessed foods. However it is lost when fresh food is processed and/or stored over prolonged periods. If our diets consisted of mainly raw foods we could possibly ingest enough MSM from those food lines. However in modern society this is a very unlikely scenario therefore we need to supplement with MSM to stop the high incidence of sulfur deficient diets which now exist. MSM is not known as a vitamin however it does have vitamin characteristics such as a moderating or calming activity for many body functions. Lack of MSM may result in adverse physical and mental stress, tissue and organ problems, fatigue, and increased susceptibility to disease.

 

What benefits can MSM offer?

MSM has been found useful in the relief of symptoms associated with the following conditions:

 

* Allergies: MSM has a broad and profound beneficial effect in relieving allergic responses. Subjects find a direct correlation between concentration of MSM used and resistance to allergens. Those with chronic to severe allergies to environmental materials such as house dust (mites), pollen, wool, animal hair, feathers, and other allergens report substantial to complete relief of their symptoms. Individuals allergic to certain drugs or foods report either a lessened intolerance or a complete tolerance to the substance.

* Gastrointestinal Upset: Those with symptoms, produced by the ingestion of food or drugs or by parasitic infections (including candida), such as diarrhoea, chronic constipation, nausea, and hyperacidity have experienced dramatic relief.

* Musculoskeletal Disorders: Men and women with symptoms of pain and inflammation associated with various disorders reported substantial and long-lasting relief. Arthritic patients report relief from pain and stiffness as well as reduced swelling and inflammation. MSM is capable of reducing the incidence of, or entirely eliminating leg and back cramps, muscle spasms, and general soreness. Athletes, bodybuilders, and marathon runners report that MSM, taken before and after exercise, helps eliminate cramps and muscle soreness and reduces recovery time markedly.

 

How much do I take?

The effective amount consumed depends to some extent on one's state of health. We've had good results ingesting 1.600g(1600mg) to 3 grams (3000mg) twice daily, morning and late afternoon. An equal amount of vitamin C and bioflavonoids taken for it's synergistic effect appears to enhance the benefits of MSM.

 

Starting on MSM, some users notice signs of an initial detoxification. These include headache, loose bowel motion and tiredness, lasting 1-3 days - the uncomfortable but welcome signs of cellular cleansing.
