MSM 16 Ounce package. This technology ensures the highest quality of MSM on the market to-day, entirely free of any contaminants. The fine crystal powder form of MSM is sometimes preferred by people that like to dissolve the powder in a juice or in water.  Since the crystals are extremely fine, they dissolve quickly.

Here are some Questions and Answers

Few people are sulfur-deficient? Does MSM help?
A:
Most people derive all the sulfur they need from their diet, from the sulfur-containing amino acids cysteine and methionine, which are abundant in animal-derived foods such as meat, eggs, milk and other dairy products.  MSM is not needed to correct sulfur deficiency; it is useful for its own beneficial effects. Theoretically, if someone were deficient in sulfur, MSM could be a reasonably good source.

Does MSM have any proven effects on insulin, blood sugar, blood pressure, or peptic ulcer?
A:
No. Sulfur is a component of many amino acids and hormones, and is required for the production of many more. But just because sulfur is required to produce insulin, it is not correct to believe that taking sulfur as a supplement (e.g., in MSM) would have any effect on the body’s production or secretion of insulin. The regulatory pathways for blood sugar metabolism are far more complex than that.

What are the benefits of MSM over non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as ibuprofen?
A:
MSM is an effective anti-inflammatory agent. Unlike NSAIDs, however, it does not bad side effects such as causing gastritis or inhibit cartilage synthesis.

Can patients with allergies to sulfa drugs still take MSM?
A:
Many patients with allergies to sulfa drugs can take MSM. MSM contains no sulfonamides, and these allergies are not necessarily transferable to all sulfur-containing substances. However, patients with sulfonamide allergies also tend to have other medication allergies as well.

Is MSM safe for pregnant women and/or children?
A:
There are no known reasons why pregnant women and children could not take MSM. However, its safety for these groups has not been definitively proven. As with most nutritional supplements, MSM should not be taken by pregnant women or children unless prescribed by a qualified doctor. Research is currently underway to determine the safety of MSM for these groups of people.

Does MSM have any proven effects on insulin, blood sugar, blood pressure, or peptic ulcer?
A:
No. Sulfur is a component of many amino acids and hormones, and is required for the production of many more. But just because sulfur is required to produce insulin, it is not correct to believe that taking sulfur as a supplement (e.g., in MSM) would have any effect on the body’s production or secretion of insulin.

How is MSM made? MSM is made from DMSO (Dimethyl Sulfoxide), and DMSO is made by processing the waste product (trees) of paper making (“pulp and paper industry”)– it is NEVER made by simply processing trees or any other form of plant life (no matter what you might read in some less informed Internet sources), for the sole purpose of extracting DMSO. It COULD be, just as sea water could be used for the sole purpose of extracting gold, but this is totally impractical.

In paper making — DMSO is extracted from the waste product of paper making — and it is the PAPER MAKING that allows the whole process to be practical. As paper is made, the paper is made of the fibers of wood. But, as trees grow, the fibers of wood are stuck together, in the living tree, by a substance called “lignin.” Lignin is like a glue that holds the fibers together. The wood could not be made into paper if all the fibers are still stuck together — so in paper making it must include some process by which the lignin is removed, allowing the wood fibers to be managed into flat paper, etc.

Lignin is removed with something called “pulping chemicals.” These chemicals are sodium sulfite (the majority), sodium sulfide and sodium carbonate). When these chemicals are soaked in a vat with wood chips, the lignin dissolves and the wood fibers can then be removed from the mass. Generally about 50% of the stuff in the vat would be the wood fibers, ready for making into paper, and 50% would be the residue, the waste product, of the original “pulping chemicals” and the lignin that has now been dissolved. That first liquid is called DMS (CH3 – S – CH3), but it quickly and easily further refined into DMSO.

DMSO is the main ingredient from which MSM is made by a controlled oxidation process using hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and water. There are no other chemicals used, and the H2O2 is turned into water.

It is very important to realize that if you purchase MSM, then the MSM you receive has been distilled. NO CHEMICALS ARE LEFT BEHIND. It is the purest possible form of the chemical MSM and is made in one of the two factories in the USA.

DMSO by itself is a great health tool and it is also sold on this website.
