MSM Lotion Information
MSM LOTION
Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) is a new dietary version of sulfur that is critically involved in numerous reactions in practically all tissues and organs. It provides nutritional support for healthy tendons, ligaments and muscles. Thus, it is an essential nutrient for muscle pain, such as that caused by intense physical exercise and exertion. In addition, its role in joint swelling and pain has only now begun to be fully appreciated. Methylsulfonylmethane is the organic form of sulfur. In contrast, sulfur contained in sulfites, and other sulfur derivatives used as food preservatives, is inorganic. The unique action of MSM in all tissues is to decrease the pressure inside the cell, and to remove fluids and toxins.

Presently, the major application of MSM is for swollen and painful joints. That is quite understandable, since sulfur is normally found in and around bone structures in the body. By the same token, MSM relieves post-exercise muscle pain. At least some studies have shown that dietary supplementation with MSM preserves cartilage.

Roughly one-half of the total sulfur in the body is concentrated in the muscle, skin and bones. One of the well-known benefits of MSM as a dietary supplement is its ability to relieve pain and inflammation. With advancing years, as the metabolic attrition in the body increases, so does the inflammation as it tries to fight the adverse effect of normal age-related wear and tear and increased production of free radicals. A similar situation is noted after intense exercise, which can lead to localized inflammation. As the cells become inflamed, they swell resulting in pain. Since MSM restores flexibility and permeability to the cell walls, fluids pass through the cell membrane more readily, which reduces pressure, and alleviates pain. Likewise, with increased permeability of the cell membrane, harmful substances, such as lactic acid, and toxins are removed from the cell.
