MSM - What does it do for our health?

The Good News!

I'd love to be able to tell you about all the wonderful benefits of MSM, in fact I could write pages and pages with hundreds of real life testimonials from real people in the UK and abroad, who's lives have been helped tremendously.

The author of this web site has taken MSM for over 12 years on a daily basis and gained remarkable relief from a condition which he had previously suffered from for nearly 30 years.

The Bad News - European Legislation!

According to European Legislation however, supplements, vitamins, minerals herbs etc are not supposed to be of any benefit at all for specific health conditions, apparently only drugs and medicines are supposed to help !!!!

So, very sadly, no specific claims can be made for MSM on UK web sites or in brochures, leaflets or fact sheets etc except to say it may be beneficial to your overall health!

Not withstanding, MSM is a remarkable nutrient.

Fortunately

Fortunately, books are not subject to limiting legislation, therefore, for the very best authoritative information on MSM, please get a copy of:

"The Miracle of MSM - The Natural Solution for Pain"

Co Authored by Stanley W Jacob MD., Ronald M Lawrence MD., and Martin Zukker.

Both Dr Jacob and Dr Lawrence are members of the International Association for the Study of Pain with many years experience of the clinical use of MSM.

Dr Lawrence is the Assistant Clinical Professor of the UCLA School of Medicine and former Physician for the American Olympic Sports team.

What we can say is:

MSM (Organic sulphur) is vital in the formation of keratin, collagen and elastin (disulphide bonds) which give flexibility, tone and strength to :- Muscles, bones, joints, internal membranes, skin, hair and nails.

The human body contains a relatively large amount of sulphur. Our skin, hair and nails all have a high sulphur content - In fact if you have ever been unfortunate enough to burn your hair or skin, the nasty smell that followed is the sulphur content burning!

Dietary Sources of MSM

Dietary sources of MSM include meat, fish, poultry, the vegetables, Cabbage, Broccoli, Brussels Sprouts, Garlic, Onions, Grains, Beans, Legumes and Unpasturised milk (approx 2 to 6 parts per million), coffee (approx 1.5 parts per million).

Are we getting enough ?

Nutritionists previously thought it was unlikely that we could become deficient. During the last few decades however, a number of factors have taken their toll:

Over farming of land leading to deficiencies in the food chain.
Long term storage of foods.
More processed and preserved foods.
A large increase in the use of fast foods and pre-prepared foods.

Sulphur Supplementation

Consequently, few people eat enough raw, sulphur containing foods on a daily basis. Sulphur amino acids should also be available from complex proteins in our normal diet however, some nutritionists now suggest that taking a sulphur supplement is beneficial.

MSM is taken as a dietary supplement to restore organic sulphur levels so the body has the correct building blocks to repair and restore normal functions wherever possible.
