HEALTH BENEFITS
If you haven't heard about the miracles of methylsulfonylmethane (MSM), some of your customers probably have. They may purchase it for ailments ranging from arthritis to heartburn. But does MSM really work? "MSM works- that's true"says pain expert and assistant clinical professor at UCLA School of Medicine, Ronald Lawrence, M.D., Ph.D. "But the fact is that the story of MSM is very confusing.
How it works or where it comes from have not been proven. MSM is just one of many organic sulfur compounds. Although it indeed contains elemental sulfur-34 percent- it should not be confused with sulfur itself. MSM occurs naturally in our foods and bodies in minute amounts. As a dietary supplement, it appears to inhibit pain impulses along nerve fibers, acting as an analgesic and anti-inflammatory. It also inhibits muscle spasms and increases blood flow.
People taking MSM may notice other benefits as well, such as softer skin, harder nails, thicker hair, and softening of scar tissue. Consumers worried about oral MSM's toxicity can be assured it's safe, according to Lawerence. "It's safer than water," he says. Patients at the Oregon Health Sciences University who have received oral MSM as part of their treatment show no toxic build-up, even after years of ingesting more than 2000 mg of MSM each day. The body may actually use what it needs, then flush out the excess sulfur within 12 hours. "The public use of MSM within the past few years has increased tenfold," Lawerence says, " and we'll see that number increase even more now.
