How It Works
MSM has a variety of mechanisms within the body. Three major mechanisms for supporting joint health and connective tissue have been suggested:- Studies suggest that serum MSM levels decrease with age.6 Replacing MSM in the body provides additional health benefits, such as building healthy hair, nails, and joints.
- MSM is a form of sulfur that occurs naturally in the human body. Sulfur is a component of the amino acids methionine and cysteine (cystine) and is an essential element of the body. Amino acids are the building blocks of protein. Proteins help to form muscle tissue, connective tissue, blood transport proteins, blood clotting factors, lipoproteins, visual pigments, and the support structure inside bones. Medical studies have indicated sulfur levels lower than normal in people with unhealthy joints. This can have wide-ranging effects on health.
- DMSO enhances the body's natural anti-inflammatory agent, cortisol. As MSM is a metabolite of DMSO, it is speculated that MSM has this cortisol enhancing property as well. In addition, it is theorized that MSM alters the activity of the immunoregulatory molecules such as prostaglandins and lymphokines. Prostaglandins are hormones that bind to receptors on target cell membranes and can play a role in mediating inflammation. Lymphokines are small protein hormones that inhibit or stimulate cell functions such as normal cell growth and differentiation. Both prostaglandins and lymphokines increase in response to stress and injury and play a role in the body's inflammatory esponse.
An additional benefit of MSM is its rapid absorption and long period of bioavailability in the body. After the initial dose, MSM may be detected in the blood after two hours; it is cleared from the blood 400 hours after discontinuing use.
FAQ
Does MSM have any side-effects with use?
Very few health hazards or side effects are known in conjunction with proper administration of recommended dosages of MSM. In rare instances, there may be gastrointestinal discomfort and loose stools due to intake of greater than recommended doses. If GI upset occurs, it is recommended to decrease the dose. Taking MSM in two or three doses throughout the day with food also reduces the risk of developing GI upset.
Can MSM effect sleep?
It is not recommended to take MSM close to bedtime as it may cause an increased energy level and possible sleeplessness. It is theorized that MSM mildly inhibits the enzyme acetylcholinesterase. The inhibition of this enzyme allows the neurotransmitter acetylcholine to remain active longer. Acetylcholine can stimulate the nervous system.
Can I take MSM with heart medications?
Anecdotal evidence from clinical practice with MSM indicates that it may have a mild blood-thinning effect on platelet aggregation. Platelets are blood cells that help in clotting. This can be supportive of health as excessive platelet formation (aggregation) is associated with heart attacks and strokes. However, if MSM is taken with prescription blood-thinning medications, this may prolong bleeding and clotting time. This is undesirable in the surgical patient and should be discussed with a licensed healthcare professional.
