Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) is a naturally occurring sulfur compound and nutritional component of many foods. It is found in the normal diets of humans and almost all other animals. MSM is made up of 34% sulfur, the fourth most abundant mineral in the human body. MSM supports healthy, active lifestyles and benefits multiple structures and functions within the body, including connective tissues and the respiratory system.
MSM (methylsulfonylmethane also called methylsulphonymenthane) is best known for aiding in joint health but has also been shown to support liver detoxification and provide many other health benefits.
