Arrrooo fellow pets and humans! You may have heard something about these letters before -no, NOT those government letters but the healthy letters, WOOF -MSM. Well today our good friend, Jeannie Thomason shares her pawsome knowledge about these healthy letters, MSM -and at the end we’ll share with you what products we have that have MSM in them!

MSM is used by countless numbers of people who HAVE allergies and it gives them relief! Oral MSM has alleviated the allergic response to pollen and to foods. The anti-allergic property of MSM is on par with or better than the traditional antihistaminic preparations.

It is extremely effective for allergies, muscle and joint pain, arthritis, and general pain.

It is a natural occurring nutrient, an organic sulfur that is naturally found in all living organisms and present in our body fluids and tissues already in fairly minute amounts. We and our pets do not usually eat enough raw food to have the proper levels sustained in our bodies for good health.

“Sulfur has a vital relationship with protein, since sulfur is found in the amino acids methionine, cystine and cysteine. These amino acids are known as the sulfur-bearing amino acids which are considered the building blocks of protein. The sulfur-bearing amino acid methionine is essential to good health. Accordingly, it must be supplied by live food, or the food supplement MSM. A lack of proper protein in the diet also means a lack of the vital organic sulfur necessary to good health. Protein contains sulfur, while carbohydrates and fats do not.

As an acid-forming mineral that is part of the chemical structure of methionine, cysteine, taurine and glutathione, sulfur disinfects the blood, resists bacteria and protects the protoplasm of cells. It aids in oxidation reactions, stimulates bile secretions in the liver and protects against toxic substances. Because of its ability to protect against the harmful effects of radiation and pollution, sulfur slows down the aging process and extends life span. It is found in hemoglobin and all body tissues and is needed for synthesis of collagen, which prevents dryness and maintains elastin in the skin.

MSM is rated as one of the least toxic substances in biology, similar in toxicity to water. Any extra MSM becomes inert and just passes through the system. It has been widely tested as a food ingredient without any reports of allergic reactions. Without a diet high in protein, of natural and unprocessed foods, and with the normal aging deficiencies, MSM must be replenished for optimal health.

MSM detoxifies the body and increases blood circulation. In cleaning the blood of toxins, MSM allows other nutrients, supplements and even medicines to function more effectively. It is a free radical scavenger so allergies to food and pollens may decrease and may even be eliminated. MSM coats the intestinal tract so parasites are unable to adhere and are flushed away.” -Dave Draper Nutritionist, Bodybuilder
