Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) Description

Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) - Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) is a naturally produced compound that is derived from Dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO). Methylsulfonylmethane is usually known by its shortened name, MSM. MSM is essential for robust good health and can be very helpful in healing injuries. It is therefore often given as an anti-inflammatory for pain relief. MSM is also a common remedy for heartburn and for relief from allergies. It is known to be helpful with gastrointestinal problems as well. There is evidence in the literature indicating that MSM will increase the absorption of oxygen into the cells. This should benefit virtually all conditions, mental or physical.

Supplementation with MSM is very common because the processing of most foods will eliminate the amount that naturally occurs. Good sources are milk, fresh fish and fruits.
