Excerpts from the book
The MSM Miracle, Enhance your health with organic sulfur
by Earl L. Mindell, R.Ph., Ph.D.

MSM is a dietary element derived from many raw foods... MSM is neither a medicine or a drug. It is a member of the sulfur family but should never be confused with sulfa drugs, to which some people are allergic. MSM has been used as a dietary supplement for several years. Acute, intermediate and long term studies indicate that MSM exhibits very low toxicity no matter how it is administered. How low? Its profile is similar to that of water! Within limits you cannot overdose with MSM because the body will take and use whatever it needs, and after a 12 hr period flush any excess amounts from the body. Sulfur is highly important. Approximately half of the total body sulfur is concentrated in the muscles, skin and bones. Sulfur is necessary for making collagen, the primary constituent of cartilage and connective tissue. It is responsible for the formation of body proteins through the formation of disulfide bonds, which hold connective tissue together.

BURSITIS/TENDINITIS

The inflammation of tendons and ligaments from tennis elbow, golfer's elbow, tendinitis of shoulders, arms, legs and feet, achilles tendon contraction may all benefit from MSM. MSM provides relief by helping to reduce the pain and swelling accompanying these conditions.

BACK PAIN

Chronic pain in the back may be the result of several areas of concern including: arthritic changes in the spine, calcium deposits, disc herniation, sprains of ligaments that connect muscle to back bone, misalignments in the spinal joints or sacroiliac joint , repetitive stress injuries (RSI), or psychological stresses which often cause muscle spasms or pain. MSM can aid in relieving the pain associated with these symptoms.

CONSTIPATION

The infrequency or difficulty in regular bowel movements can be helped by MSM. MSM produces a 'general tonic' effect in the bowels and helps to normalize bowel function.

INTERSTITIAL CYSTITIS

DIGESTIVE PROBLEMS

(Gerd - gastro-esophageal reflux disease) When stomach acid backs up into the esophagus, it causes a burning pain in the upper chest. MSM aids in neutralizing the excess stomach acid.

FIBROMYALGIA

This is a disease that attacks the soft tissue of muscles, tendons and ligaments. MSM gives relief by reducing pain and inflammation and by aiding in increased blood supply.

HEADACHES

Many headaches are related to combinations of muscle spasm at the back of the neck and changes in blood vessels feeding into the head. MSM lessens muscle spasms and may aid in tension reduction.

PARASITES

This can be an animal, plant or microbe that lives inside or on another organism. MSM works by laying a coating over the intestinal areas where some types of parasites normally attach themselves. MSM may inhibit their growth by interfering with the ability of parasites to bind to the mucous membranes.

SNORING

The vibrations of the soft palate during sleep that cause the rough, hoarse noise may be aided with a solution of MSM. MSM may work to keep the nasal passages open. With more permeable and flexible cells, a clearer passage of air results which in turn reduces the snoring.

MSM may help the healing process and aid in the relief of pain and inflammation.
