Methyl Sulfonyl Methane^®

MSM^® (Methyl Sulfonyl Methane) is a natural form of organic sulfur found in all living organisms, and is present in low concentrations in our bodies fluids and tissues. MSM is also found in foods such as: Milk, Fruit, Vegetables, Meat, and Fish; but due to most techniques of food processing, food has lost the effective level of MSM the body needs to maintain good health.

MSM is an essential part in building new healthy cells to replace damaged or bad cells that cause aches, pains, allergies, illness, and diseases. Research shows that a minimum concentration of MSM in the body may be critical to both normal function and structure. To understand what MSM does for the body and how it works, we must first look at what the body does and how it functions.

Food provides the necessary nutrients for the body to perform it’s two physiological functions-to grow and convert certain substances into energy. Food must first be broken down and changed into chemical compounds that the body is able to use. The most essential of these compounds are amino acids. Amino acids such as methionine, cystine, and cysteine are all sulfur bonders, and without sulfur in your diet these amino acids are incomplete. If your your amino acids are incomplete, then the production of your cells are incomplete and dysfunctional. For example:

Amino acids build glands; a gland is designed to produce hormones and enzymes that act as a thermostat for chemical production, balancing bodily functions.



But if a gland is built with deficient amino acids and cells, the gland will not function properly, and you will not control and balance your system as designed, and this leads to illness or diseases; i.e. if your stomach acids are not properly balanced, your stomach will develop ulcers.

MSM keeps the glands properly balancing bodily functions, so illnesses and diseases don’t have a chance to start their degeneration process .MSM takes away aches, pains, and helps reverse dysfunctions. Think of your cells as balloons full of water and protein as the latex rubber surrounding each one. When the protein covering becomes tough, the water pressure inside is greater than the outside pressure, and this causes inflating in the cell, known as inflammation. This is where pain comes from. Aspirin shuts the nerve off, but the cell is still damaged. MSM effects the protein surrounding the cell, so the water freely flows through the cell wall, flushing out toxins and allowing nutrition to come in and rebuild or repair the damaged cell.

MSM is non-toxic, and any excessive amounts become inert and simply pass through your system. About every twelve hours what your body does not retain, it flushes out of your system. It takes free radicals and foreign proteins out of the blood stream; so allergies to food and pollen go away in about three days. MSM has a high degree of bio-availability and quickly dissolves into the blood stream. MSM enables your body to absorb other vitamins and minerals you take and allows your cells to absorb all the nutrition and oxygen for effiecent metabolism, then flushes out all the toxins to keep body operating properly.

  MSM is available as a lotion or massage gel for topical applications; drops for eyes and ears; nasal spray for nose; and in it's original form as powder or capsules. The application may vary for different desired results.

• The benefits of the Lotion or massage gel can be applied directly onto the area you want to relieve and heal; such as carpal tunnel, arthritis, various types of muscle damage and soreness, works as a anti-venom for some poisonous snake and spider bites, helps repairs scar tissue, works on killing athletes feet fungus and ring worm, and many other conditions.
• · Benefits of the drops and nasal spray:
  • For the Eyes: Can help relieve Glaucoma, Cataracts, and help improve general vision. Relieves some eye irritations, soreness, and allergy discomfort.
  • For the Ears: Works on decreasing inflamed membranes and tissues in the inner ear, which is usually the cause of most equilibrium dysfunctions, and improves inner ear muscle and tissue function.
  • Nasal Spray for the Nose: Provides Allergy relief, helps reduce some inflamed sinus problems and polyps, improves sinus drainage if suffering from congestion.
• Benefits of the Powder (internal ingestion) are: reduced allergic responses, control of hyperacidity, relief of stomach discomfort, aids the reconstruction of healthy cells with cancer patients, protects against the onset of breast and colon cancer, significantly reduces snoring disorders, control of constipation, antiparasitic action, increases cologne synthesis, relieves hang over symptoms, aids the bio-availblity of other nutrients or medications, helps restore and balance the bodies pH, aiding the elimination of Candida yeast infections, and many other benefits.

  note: Candida is a natural bacteria that lives in your Colon. If it starts spreading, it causes illness and disease. In fact, Candida can simulate some 80 different diseases. So you go to your doctor for a flu, and he gives you Antibiotics. Antibiotics kill your good bacteria (acidolphilus) which feed the Candida, so the Candida becomes hungry and spreads, looking for food. Women can get yeast infections, if you get it in your ears or eyes - they call it "Thrush", if it gets in your blood stream - they call it "Chronic fatigue" - an incurable disease. Incurable with "antibiotics" maybe, but not incurable. Just take MSM along with a balanced diet and begin to restore your pH, the Candida can not survive in a pH balanced body - except in the Colon, where it is suppose to be - stop the antibiotic circus, and you restore the good bacteria acidophilus, and your on your way to becoming well. The alternative approach is continued illness and alot of expense.

Suggested use as a dietary supplement consist of approximately 2250 mg. daily depending on the individuals stress level, and the physical demands of the day. Most people use between 1/2 to 3 teaspoons every day. Personally, I use a 1/2-1 teaspoon morning and evening. It just depends on daily activity, stress, and exposure to unhealthy envorinments. If I start to get sick, I double up on the dosage. 2 tablespoons morning and evening and the next day I feel great again, then back to 1-2 teaspoons a day and so on. Preventive medicine can cost less than illness and sickness.

MSM detoxifies the body, increases blood circulation, and reduces inflammation of tissue. MSM helps tissue’s heal, rather than desensitizing the tissue’s and leaving them damaged; as over the counter and some prescribed medication’s do. If you understand how miraculous the body is, it's not difficult to understand the right nutrition is the key that unlocks the the bodies secrets to good health. The body can heal itself, if it can get the proper nourishment. Try MSM today. Natural Resources * P.O. Box 5681 * Portland OR 97228 Phone # 1 (503) 240-5395 * edge@europa.com

MSM : DMSO After 20 years

Stanley W. Jacob
Department of Surgery

Portland, Oregon

MSM, an odorless essentially tasteless, white crystalline chemical demonstrates usefulness as a dietary supplement in men and lower animals. Our research suggests that a minimum concentration in the body may be critical to both normal function and structure. Limited studies suggest that the systemic concentration of MSM drops in mammals with increasing age. This may be due to dietary habits where one ingests foods with lower MSM potential with maturity or possibly there is a change in the renal threshold. Healthy juvenile rabbits maintain a level at or above 1 PPM body weight, with milk being the dominant food and source. Cow's milk normally contains between 2 and 6 PPM MSM, dependent on source and freshness. In an adult man, the circulating concentration varies but may average about 0.2 - 0.25 PPM. We have no estimate of total body concentration as yet, but suspect that MSM is banked in some of the organs, other than the adrenals. Based on radiolabel (35 S) studies, the residence time of a single challenge in mammals may be several weeks with gradual dumping via the renal system. Daily output of urine contains several milligrams of MSM. This possibly is not the dominant excretory route. The following abnormal conditions seen in the clinic have responded to oral MSM generally administered at dosage levels of 250-270 mg/day.

1. Response to allergy. Oral MSM moderates diverse allergic responses as to pollen and foods. Antiallergy medication and dissemination methods may be sharply reduced.
2. Control of hyperacidity. Subjects that are chronic users of various antacids and histamine H 2 receptor antagonists prefer
3. Hypersensitivity to drugs. Subjects demonstrating drug hypersensitivity to aspirin, several nonsterioid antiarthritic agents (Naprosy, Indocin, Motria), and oral antibiotics, were drug tolerant when MSM was given within an hour before or concurrent with the sensitizing drug
4. Control of constipation. Particularly in the older population seen in our clinic, chronic constipation can be a medical problem of concern. To date, over 50 subjects presenting chronic constipation have gained prompt and continuing relief by supplementing the diet with 100 to 500 mg of MSM per day.
5. We have seen some individuals with severely restricted lung function. Of these, only a few cooperated in vital function assessments. All cooperated in endurance measurements. Limited objective and strong subjective evidence suggests that MSM is a useful dietary supplement to reduce lung dysfunction.
6. Antiparacitic action. In vitro and in vivo tests suggest MSM has an activity against a variety of medically important parasitic tracts, MSM, for example, is active against Giardia, Trichomondads, and round worms. MSM surface, presenting a blocking interface between host and parasite. We are at present evaluating the action of MSM with a variety of abnormal or medical problems to determine whether any are responsive to a diet supplemented by MSM.

We are intrigued the fact that MSM is a contestant factor in all normal dies of vertebrates and somewhat mystified by the seeming need of the body of adults for a concentration level above that available from a diet presumed as normal. We hope soon to have data defining any specific interacting role that MSM may have with the water-soluble vitamins, particularly Vitamin C, which like MSM is reportedly banked in the adrenals. It is not possible to directly compare DMSO and derivative MSM, though of the same chemical family. Each is unique unto itself. MSM is a dietary factor derivable from most natural food. It is conveniently taken alone or in foods. Taken by mouth, there is no afterbreath. DMSO has certain unpleasant attributes not possessed by MSM. While MSM is a dietary factor, DMSO is not. DMSO readily penetrates the dermas and less complicated membrane systems while MSM does not. Each contribution to the well-being of mankind, but in differing ways. Both have important implications.
