MSM: The Natural Pain Reliever a Veteran Actor Swears By
According to The Management of Pain, a two-volume reference book for physicans published in 1990, more than one-third of the American population have chronic painful conditions and of those, half or more are partially or totally disabled for periods of days, weeks, months, years or permanently.
And if you experience back-pain, neck pain, headaches, muscle pain, RSI or any other pain disorder then this may be the most important message you ever read.
Why? Because MSM (methylsulfonylmethane) is known as a safe, natural, side-effect-free remedy for many types of pain and inflammatory conditions.
Veteran actor, James Coburn, swears by it. He had been in pain for several years before, in 1998, he was introduced to MSM. He said “It was like a miracle. The pain stopped and in three days I started to swing a golf club again.”
It’s quite a surprising supplement to say the least. And when you begin taking it you may notice a number of positive things beginning to happen in your life in addition to pain relief, including growing stronger thicker hair... relief of constipation... lessening of scar tissue...... softer skin... nails which grow faster and longer ... more energy... and a digestive system that works much better.
Sounds too good to be true, doesn’t it? Especially when you consider the fact...
It’s Completely Non-Toxic and as Safe
and Natural to Your Body as Water
So what on earth is MSM and why aren’t we getting enough of it?
When asked to think of the minerals important to their health, most people are well aware that iron is important for the blood, zinc is critical for the prostate and calcium is important for your bones.
But when was the last time you heard someone mention sulfur, the chief ingredient in MSM, a sorely neglected mineral nutrient in mineral hot springs which physicians have prescribed throughout history?
The late Carl Pfeiffer, Ph.D, M.D., a world-renowned expert on nutritional medicine, once described sulfur as “the forgotten essential element.”
While it’s found in many fruits and vegetables, unfortunately it disappears once the food is cooked, processed and stored. So practically speaking, most of us are not getting much MSM in our diets, unless we eat a great deal of freshly picked and gathered foods.
To help visualise the importance of sulfur, imagine a block of buildings connected to each other with a complex network of bridges. The structure of your body, particularly your connective tissues, which allows cells and tissues to form organs, are held tightly together with sulfur bonds. And if your body didn’t have sulfur, it would simply be a blob of jelly.
It’s the eighth most abundant element in all living organisms, which is an integral part of us and what makes us tick. It forms part of virtually all of our tissues, especially those which are high in protein, including muscles, hair, skin and red blood cells.
By combining Vitamin C with MSM you speed up the detoxification and restoration process because vitamin C helps absorb more nutrients into your body.
