MSM May Be a Natural Pain Management Alternative

(Newswire.net — January 12, 2017) Orlando, FL — There are many individuals who suffer from certain medical conditions nowadays, and many of them experience pain on a daily basis. While there are pain medications available, there are also natural alternatives widely thought to be effective in reducing pain.

Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) may be a natural pain management alternative. This organic form of sulfur is essential for the human body and life. It is a vital element for all body tissues and cells, such as the joint tissue.

MSM is believed to stabilize the connective tissue matrix of the tendons, cartilage, and ligaments. Individuals with conditions such as arthritis or fibromyalgia may potentially benefit from the use of this natural alternative.

Today, there are many arthritis sufferers who turn to the use of natural alternatives such as MSM as safer method to pain medications. There are over-the-counter and prescription drugs that are formulated to reduce pain and inflammation, however they may be associated with side effects. Many arthritis sufferers use natural supplements such as MSM to avoid these possible side effects and may potentially find relief from joint pain, muscle pain, and inflammation.

MSM can be found in raw fruits and vegetables as well as in grains. It can also be found in human blood and tissues. This natural ingredient may help the body maintain adequate levels of sulfur in the body. While it is present in many edible items, its amounts often reduce through heat or food processing. To effectively incorporate MSM in one’s diet, it may be consumed through supplementation.

In 1979, Dr. Stanley Jacob, M.D. discovered methylsulfonylmethane while researching at the Oregon Health and Sciences University in Portland Oregon. Dr. Stanley is a surgeon and former Professor of Surgery at Harvard Medical School. He is considered as the foremost expert on its research as well as clinical applications around the world.

The human body needs sulfur to create and regenerate its tissues. Swelling and inflammation in the fibrous tissue cells may lead to pressure and pain. MSM is believed to have the ability to restore the permeability and flexibility of the cell walls.

This allows the fluids to easily pass through the tissues, which then enables the cells to eliminate the garbage that is constantly produced inside the cell. Thus, MSM may help the cell absorb nutrients more easily.

MSM may also potentially detoxify, and it may trigger the elimination of lactic acid and toxins from the cells located in the joints and muscles. With this action, MSM may equalize the pressure and eliminate the cause of pain.

Individuals who want to take advantage of the potential positive effects of MSM may do so through supplementation. The more popular supplements available nowadays contain a combination of MSM and glucosamine.
