Joint HealthÂ
Sulfur is the fourth most abundant mineral in the human body and is an important nutrient for the maintenance of healthy joints, tendons, ligaments and other connective tissue. MSM is a rich source of sulfer (34% by weight) and has been shown to play a role in maintaining the cushion between joints to support mobility and protect healthy cartilage. Regular intake of MSM may also improve joint stress recovery time and prevent chronic joint issues.Â
Beauty
MSM can support the body’s ability to produce collagen, an essential ingredient in the connective tissue of the body that provides structural support and impacts the flexibility and quality of the skin. The human body produces collagen naturally, but as we age this production can slowly decline which is why skin begins to ‘age’ over the years. Depleting lifestyle habits, UV rays, and environmental toxins are all common stressors that can impact the skin and lead to ageing. Regular intake of MSM can therefore support collagen production, helping to maintain skin integrity and radiance.
MSM is also a building block of keratin, the main structural constituent of the hair and nails, supporting health, integrity and quality. MSM has also been shown to be anti-inflammatory and through its detoxification-supporting actions, can reduce oxidative stress and damage within the body, also a key factor in physical ageing.Â
Tonification
In ancient Taoist medicine, tonic herbs and medicinal mushrooms were used to nourish and tonify specific systems within the body. These systems correlate with the natural elements, and their direct effect can be classified as either Major or Minor.
