Methylsulfonylmethane provides a unique source of biological sulfur. Sulfur is an essential mineral found in various compounds and structures in the body such as collagen, hormones, and immunoglobulins (proteins with antibody activity). Methylsulfonylmethane supports
healthy skin, fur, connective tissues, reduces pain and swelling.
Methylsulfonylmethane has a
vitamin-like normalizing influence on body functions. The value of Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) to the body includes helping to maintain cell membrane flexibility and permeability which allows for the exchange of nutrients into and toxins out of the cell. MSM provides sulfur metabolites that the body uses to create new cells. It is also involved in the maintenance of proper connective tissue function and in the formation of collagen. A low concentration of
Methylsulfonylmethane blood levels has been associated with physical
stress, organ malfunction, fatigue, slow wound healing, and, immune system
dysfunction and susceptibility to disease.
It has been used to counteract skin problems, allergies, digestive
complaints, and the pain and swelling that accompanies arthritis, bursitis,
sprains and strains. Veterinarians
prescribe it to help promote healthy skin, fur, and nails, to help
Panosteitis (bone inflammation), cruciate and ligament problems in dogs,
and to treat stomach ulcers.
Sulfur is found in every cell in the body and is important for the structure and function of many significant compounds. It helps to form disulfide bonds found in proteins that hold together the protein strands of connective tissue, hair, and keratin (nails, hoofs, and claws). Biological sulfur is essential to the activity of many enzymes that protect and sustain life processes. Methylsulfonylmethane supplementation is the natural way to obtain the optimal amount of dietary sulfur the body needs for various compounds and processes in the body.
It is used by the body in two ways: For synthesizing sulfur-containing amino acids and in the production of various sulfur-containing compounds in the body such as insulin, keratin, collagen, chondroitin sulfate, and glutathione - one of the master antioxidants in the body.
Methylsulfonylmethane is a versatile supplement, and has been used in a variety of ways including gastrointestinal support (by supporting the integrity of the digestive tract lining and balancing ph levels) and to maintain proper skin, hair and keratin (nails, hoofs, and claws) health as well as supporting circulation in animals of all breeds.
Methylsulfonylmethane is a naturally occurring sulfur compound
found in every cell of the body.
Sulfur is found in small amounts in fruits, vegetables and grains
but because of its volitile nature, it is easily lost. Supplementing
additional sulfur to the diet ensures the body's ability to synthesize
collagen for connective tissue health, maintain all membrane flexibility
and promote cell regeneration. The concentration of Methylsulfonylmethane
in the body begins to decrease over time, so deficiencies may occur as part
of the aging process. Supporting the need for sulfur supplementation is the fact that sulfur deficiencies have been noted in many degenerative and immune-related diseases.
Each capsule provides: 500 mg Methylsulfonylmethane.
Ingredients: Methylsulfonymethane, Rice Flour and Magnesium Stearate.
As a dietary supplement, give one capsule per 20 lbs of body weight. Give
orally or break capsule open and mix with food. For doses of more than one
capsule, divide between AM and PM.
