Biologically
active sulfur is one of the most critical nutrients for our bodies to
remain youthful and energetic. As we age, along with a diet deficient
in essential nutrients, our bodies become stiff, our cells become rigid,
and our overall energy begins to rapidly decelerate.
MSM (methylsulfonylmethane) is an organic sulfur compound that’s
naturally derived during the earth’s rain cycle. Sulfur is present in
many natural unprocessed foods, but it’s quickly lost during the cooking
process. MSM is gaining a lot of attention due to the recent focus on
longevity and anti-aging technologies. Here’s a list of 7 impressive
benefits that MSM delivers:
1. Improves skin health and complexion
MSM is necessary for collagen production. Sagging skin and wrinkles,
as well as dry, cracked skin are all developed through a loss of
collagen. MSM works together with Vitamin C to build new, healthy
tissues. MSM can normalize collagen formation and radically improve
skin health.
2. Improves flexibility
Research has shown that MSM is highly effective in improving joint
flexibility. Additionally, it helps to produce flexible skin and muscle
tissue. This leads to an increase in overall flexibility due to a
restoration of the “juiciness” in the tissues.
3. Detoxifies the body
One of the most important features of MSM is that it makes your cells more
permeable.
This means that it allows toxins and metabolic waste products to easily
be moved out of the cells, while essential nutrients and hydration can
be moved in. It’s a
calcium phosphate dissolver, so it has a remarkable ability to break up the bad calcium that’s at the root of degenerative diseases.
4. Strengthens hair and nails
Collagen and keratin and both critical for the production of healthy
hair and nails. MSM is a bonafide “beauty mineral” that provides the
sulfur needed to produce collagen and keratin. It’s also highly noted
to contribute to exceptional strength and thickness of the hair and
nails, which can be noticed in just a couple weeks of consistent use.
5. Accelerates healing
Lactic acid and other byproducts cause pain and soreness in the
body. MSM increases the ability of the body to eliminate waste products
at the cellular level. This speeds recovery and frees up more energy
for rebuilding.
6. Naturally Increases energy
Due to the increased permeability of the cells, less energy is
required to deal with the accumulation of toxins. This results in more
energy being redirected towards activity and necessary healing.
Digestion is the biggest energy requirement of the body (Approximately
70-80% of your energy is spent on digestion each day). MSM increases the
absorption of nutrients so that the energy expenditure on digestion is
vastly reduced.
7. Anti-inflammatory
MSM is a powerful anti-inflammatory due to its ability to allow
metabolic wastes to be removed from the cells. Excess weight on the
body is actually inflammation. The cells of the body are chronically
inflamed and retaining the byproducts of metabolic processes. Sulfur
needs to be present In order for these toxins and wastes to be removed
from the body. When these byproducts can be removed from the system,
then the cells can also dispose of excess fluids that were being stored
as a buffer. What results is a natural and effective reduction in
unwanted weight.
How to use MSM:
MSM can be purchased in powder form or in supplement capsules. For
best results using the MSM powder, added it to your water along with a
botanical source of vitamin C like Camu Camu Berry or lemon juice.
Start with one teaspoon of MSM powder in 16 ounces of water, and
gradually work your way up to 2 to 3 tablespoons per day to see some
really impressive results.
