Osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic disease of the joints, especially the weight-bearing joints that develops when the linings of joints degenerate, leading to lipping and spurring of bone, pain, and decreased mobility and function.What are the symptoms?
The onset of OA is gradual and most often affects the hips, knees, fingers, and spine, although other joints also may be involved. Pain is the main symptom, which usually worsens with exercise and is relieved by rest. Morning stiffness is also common and diminishes with movement. As OA progresses, joint motion is lost, and tenderness and grating sensations may develop. OA of the spine may lead to shooting pains down the arms or legs.How does MSM work? The science behind the secret…
MSM is a supplemental version of sulphur. Sulphur is in our bones, joints, and skin & muscle tissues and is involved in producing collagen (the primary component of connective tissue). MSM contains high amounts of sulphur. Regular supplementation is important as, as we age, the body's levels of MSM diminish.Recent Studies
MSM helps reduce arthritis joint pain
A clinical trial titled 'Efficacy of methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) in osteoarthritis pain of the knee: a pilot clinical trial' by Kim et al published in the March 2006 issue of "Osteoarthritis and Cartilage" studied 50 men and women ages 40-76 with knee osteoarthritis pain. When compared to a placebo group, those who took 3 g of MSM daily for 12 weeks reported a substantial decrease in pain and function impairment. No serious adverse effects were reported. Researchers determined, however, that further studies are required to assess long-term benefits of MSM.MSM combined with Glucosamine enhances results
A study conducted by Usha et al titled 'Randomised, Double-Blind, Parallel, Placebo-Controlled Study of Oral Glucosamine, Methylsulfonylmethane and their Combination in Osteoarthritis' was published in the 'Clinical Drug Investigation' Volume 24, Number 6, 2004. They discovered that combining MSM with Glucosamine enhanced the pain-relieving benefits than MSM alone.Is MSM right for me?
MSM contains sulphur which has been shown to help promote the growth and repair of connective tissues. It has also been shown to slow down the nerve impulses that send pain signals to your brain helping to decrease pain associated with arthritis. For added benefit, take MSM with BioconceptsGlucosamine 1000mg or Bioconcepts Glucosamine & Chondroitin for improved joint health & mobility and a decrease in joint pain and inflammation.

MSM has greatly helped with nightly leg and foot cramps and spasms more than any other product I've tried and now I can get a good nights sleep. I would even go as far to say it is better than prescription medication for the same thing because of its all natural ingredients. ..
