Dimethyl Sulfone (msm), Dr. Abhay Kumar Pati, Best Nutrition USA

July 11, 2010 - PRLog -- DIMETHYL SULFONE (MSM), Dr.Pati Abhay Kumar, Best Nutrition USA

DESCRIPTION
Sulfur plays an indispensable and unfortunately often overlooked role in human nutrition, responsible for maintaining the conformation of the body’s proteins by forming flexible disulfide bonds between certain amino acids. It has a critical role in maintaining the integrity of connective tissue and the functions of many of the body’s enzymes. To perform properly our bodies need a constant intake of easily available sulfur.
Dimethyl sulfone, also called MSM, is a naturally occurring form of organic sulfur found in all living organisms. It is present at a low concentration in human body fluids and tissue, as well as in many common foods, including milk, meat, fish, and a variety of fruits, vegetables and grains. However, when foods are processed, heated or dried, the essential MSM is lost. Therefore, unless a person’s diet is composed primarily of raw foods, it is unlikely that he or she is receiving enough MSM for proper health. Research suggests that maintaining a minimum concentration in the body may be critical to normal functioning, and that the level of MSM in the body drops with increasing age. Good health practices involve replacing such declining essential substances, and the most effective and convenient way to prevent a sulfur-deficient diet is to replenish the body’s MSM with a regular dietary supplement. MSM is an odorless, essentially tasteless, water-soluble, white, crystalline substance that serves as an important, bioavailable source of dietary sulfur.
When incorporated into a gel or lotion and applied to the skin, purified MSM softens, smoothes, soothes, and makes older skin more pliable. The results have been quite remarkable. Except for its beneficial inhibitory effect on cross-linking collagen and proteins, whereby it reduces hardening of skin and connective tissue, MSM appears to be inert in tissues and body fluids. Because of inertness, MSM is non-allergenic and non-pyretic, and has no interfering or undesirable pharmacological effects.
