FYI--MSM for the immune system

[Guest guest]

MSM or MethylSulfonylMethane is a naturally occurring organic sulfur

found in the tissues of all plants and animals (including humans). In

fact, sulfur is the fourth most abundant mineral in the body. The

proper acid/alkaline balance of the body cannot be maintained without

it. Sulfur is vital to the creation and regeneration of the body?s

tissues. It must be present for collagen to be produced, and is a

major component in the formation of cartilage and connective tissues.

Symptoms associated with sulfur deficiencies include a poorly

functioning immune system, gastrointestinal problems, allergies,

arthritis, nail, hair, and skin problems. If the body is not receiving

enough sulfur it produces weak, dysfunctional cells. Our

highly-processed modern diet, air, soil, and water pollution, over

farming and deforestation have made adequate nutritional sulfur

unavailable to most people through food alone. Supplementation with

MSM is a safe way to insure sufficient sulfur intake. MSM is virtually

nontoxic (about the same as normal water) and poses none of the risks

associated with other supplemental sources of sulfur. The body uses

amino acids and particularly Vitamin C with bioflavonoids (see below)

to metabolize MSM to sulfur; therefore adequate Vitamin C intake is

also important.
