    MSM (Methylsulfonylmethane) is a natural form of bioavailable sulfur found in all living organisms. Sulfur is critical for the formation of collagen, keratin, and elastin, which are proteins that make up most of the body’s structural tissues, including hair, skin, nails, bone, cartilage, and ligaments. Sulfur is also necessary for glutathione, lipoic acid, and SAMe production. Clinical studies demonstrate that MSM may help to maintain healthy joint tissues.• For Connective Tissue• Supports Healthy JointsDietary ConsiderationsWheat FreeDairy/ Milk FreeGluten FreeSoy FreeYeast FreeSugar FreeStarch FreePreservative FreeSalt FreeCorn FreeServing Size: 2 CapsuleServings Per Container: 90Amount Per ServingMSM (Methylsulphonylmethane) (2,000 mg) 2 gOther Ingredients:Gelatin (capsule), Stearic Acid, Magnesium StearateSUGGESTED USAGE: As a dietary supplement, take two capsules 1-2 times daily with meals.

Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) is a sulfur-containing compound often used to treat osteoarthritis and maintain joint health. MSM, combined with glucosamine and/or chondroitin, can significantly reduce joint pain and support the development of healthy cartilage. Collagen, krill oil, and fish oil are other supplements that enhance the effects of MSM.

Even if you are not currently experiencing joint pain, adding MSM supplements to your daily intake may be wise. The wear and tear of daily life and exercise can cause joint damage, but MSM supplements can help prevent this. In addition to supplements, be sure to eat plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables because methylsulfonylmethane is also absorbed from the soil by the roots of plants. For this reason, milk from dairy animals is allowed free range on fresh grass, which is a good source of MSM. 

Studies have shown that the side effects of MSM supplements are few and mild. Some users of MSM have reported experiencing slight stomach upset or rashes on the skin; however, these side effects are minor when weighed against the level of pain support the supplement provides. Additionally, side effects can be mitigated by splitting the dosage into smaller doses throughout the day and taking MSM with food. Additionally, studies have shown that large amounts of MSM are not necessarily required for positive results, so you can reduce your overall dosage significantly to address these side effects. Discuss the use and dosage of MSM with your doctor to determine precisely how much you should take. 

Also remember to look for MSM under its other names: DMSO2, sulfonylbismethane, methanesulfonylmethane, and methyl sulfone. No matter which name the product you decide on bears, you can be sure of finding the best quality and value right here at Vita Living.
