M.S.M. is a naturally occurring organic source of biologically available nutritional sulphur. M.S.M. is found in all living organisms and is present in our body fluids and tissues, and is said to reduce inflammation, improve joint mobility and maintain the integrity of lung tissue. It is found in most green plant foodstuffs and algaes, and a variety of fruits, vegetables and grains in small amounts and is destroyed with dehydration and heat.

MSM is the transport molecule for elemental sulphur or assimilable source of essential sulphur which is required for proper assimilation of alpha amino acids Methionine and Cysteine. Proper protein synthesis can only be achieved with M.S.M. monomers that maintain the correct molecular framework for soft and connective tissue throughout the body. M.S.M. contributes sulphur to the disulphide bonds that are essential for the proper conformation of hair, nails and connective tissue. Even hormones and antibodies receive sulphur from M.S.M.
