MSM – Healthy Joints and Radiant Skin

MSM stands for Methylsulfonylmethane; it is a type of sulphur, which is naturally found within all cells of the human body and in many foods, but which is lost through food refining and processing.

MSM is involved in numerous metabolic processes. MSM promotes the production of important amino acids and is an essential building block for joints and cartilages as well as skin, hair and nails.

In the body, MSM softens leathery internal tissues by rebuilding connective tissue with elastic sulphur bonds. This is how MSM lives up to its reputation of building collagen and maintaining healthy joints. This is also why MSM increases flexibility (good for yoga), hastens recovery time from sore muscles, and is excellent for recovery from athletic injuries.

MSM deficiencies can cause increased sensitivity to pain, gastrointestinal issues, decreased immune function, arthritis, skin problems, and brittle, dry hair and nails.

Why we love MSM

MSM offers many benefits, but one of the major benefits that is joint pain relief. Oral MSM treatment is good against arthritic pain. Researches have also shown that MSM is good against muscle pain. It can reduce the pain and swelling but it does not cure arthritis. Doctors generally prescribe it as it reduces the need for medication! It is getting popular as a natural solution which many people prefer as they realize the negative effects of over-the-counter pain relieving medications.

MSM works to build collagen, helping to create smooth skin, thick, lustrous hair, and strong nails.

Since MSM increases the permeability of cell membranes, nutrient uptake can work better and faster and toxins and metabolic waste can be eliminated more effectively.

SamaraNatura Plant-derived MSM Capsules

SamaraNatura MSM is a 100% pure plant product derived from oilseeds grown in Europe. Most MSM supplements currently available are obtained from petroleum sources. This MSM comes as a pure white crystalline powder in Vegi-capsules made of cellulose.

Use

For the best absorption of MSM, the powder or flake forms are highly recommended. Capsules or tablets may be taken; however, these are slower to digest and become absorbed.

For first-time users, it is advised that they take MSM supplements with a meal, to prevent heartburn, drink plenty of water, and only take the smallest recommended amount of MSM. Typically, new consumers try 1 capsule each day for one week. Eventually, consumers may increase their doses to 2x 2 capsules per day, or according to individual intestinal strength. Consumers will eventually be able to supplement without the addition of foods; it takes about two weeks before results are apparent.

MSM makes a person feel more energetic; doses should be taken in the morning and early afternoon, so as to prevent insomnia.

MSM powder displays a remarkable affinity for foods rich in Vitamin C. Maximum benefits may be obtained by mixing 1 tbs of MSM powder with 1 ts of camu camu berry powder in 3 cups of water or juice. Camu camu contains the highest levels of Vitamin C of any food in the world, making this combination beneficial for immunity and essential for building supple, radiant skin.

SAFETY: Since MSM can thin the blood, people must consult with a qualified healthcare provider before supplementing their diet, if they use aspirin or blood-thinning medication.
