Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) is a naturally occurring, organic sulfur-containing compound related to DMSO (Dimethyl Sulfoxide).It occurs naturally in the foods we eat, but often disappears or is significantly depleted because of the processing done to our foods.
MSM, Methylsulfonylmethane, is a naturally occurring nutrient found in plants, meats, dairy products, fruits, and vegetables. MSM is therefore found in the normal human diet. It is an odorless, tasteless, white water soluble, crystalline solid in its purified form.
The definition of "arthritis" is "inflammation of the joint".
So while Osteoarthritis affects only the bones & joints, Rheumatoid arthritis can cause inflammation not only to the synovium (joint cell lining) but also tear glands, salivary glands, the linings of your heart & lungs, and even your blood vessel linings!
Osteoarthritis, which results from wear and tear on your joints, Rheumatoid arthritis is an inflammatory condition. The exact cause of Rheumatoid arthritis is unknown, but it's believed to be the body's immune system attacking the tissue that lines your joints
Studies have shown that sulfur from oral supplements of MSM is incorporated into body proteins. Other studies have reported that joints affected by Osteoarthritis have lower sulfur content. MSM is a non-metallic organic compound that plays an essential role in human nutrition. When amino acids, the trace minerals zinc, copper and silicon and vitamin C are present, the body metabolizes MSM to sulfur. Sulfur, a structural component integral to new cell growth, is stored in every cell of the body, particularly the hair, nails, bones, teeth and the connective tissue of joints and skin, where it is an important component of protein. Sulfur also contributes to fat digestion and absorption vis-à-vis its role in bile acid production. As a component of insulin, sulfur is needed to regulate blood sugar.
MSM supplies sulfur to the body, which allows it to heal itself. It produces muscle relaxation and reportedly a whole host of beneficial qualities. It has been used with great success in eliminating chronic back pain, muscle pain, repairing cut, scraped, burned and damage skin. We've seen reports of MSM eliminating wrinkles, brown spots, skin tumors, and spider veins. MSM is being used for burn victims and repairing scar tissue. Many people report relief from allergies after using MSM.
Other reports indicate that MSM will remove parasites from the body, and help the body to detoxify itself.
MSM is anti-inflammatory and anti-microbial.MSM feeds the formation of collagen and elastin while preventing and reducing cross-linking between cells, which is the primary cause of wrinkles and scar tissue. MSM is a natural sulfur compound that contributes to healthy skin, hair and nails. MSM has been used orally and topically to aid skin disorders. When used topically, in the form of a cream or lotion, sulfur is helpful in treating skin disorders including acne, psoriasis, eczema, dermatitis, dandruff, scabies, diaper rash and certain fungal infections.
