MSM

MSM stands for Methylsulfonylmethane, an organic sulphur compound that naturally occurs in plants, animals, and humans. MSM is crucial for our health; however, much of it is lost during cooking. MSM is an important component of connective tissue and is composed of 34% sulphur, 34% oxygen, 26% carbon, and 6% hydrogen bonds.

Some MSM supplements are combined with other substances, such as vitamin C and manganese. Vitamin C and manganese offer various health benefits:

• Vitamin C is beneficial for cartilage; it plays a role in the production and maintenance of healthy cartilage

• Vitamin C supports the skeleton; it plays a role in bone formation and the maintenance of strong bones

• Manganese is important for the composition of bones

• Manganese contributes to the normal formation of connective tissue

There is no recommended daily allowance for MSM. Seek advice from an expert, for example, in one of our stores.
