Hi,

I'm getting better at locating things since someone told me how to use
Google more efficiently.  Here are the components of MSM:
MSM Plus Tablets    Product # 1020  -  200 Tablets.  Each tablet contains
750 mg. pharmaceutical grade, 100% MSM with Citrus Bioflavinoids and
PhytoZyme base (synergistic phyto-nutrients). 

The cost per milligram (in US) is only 0.019 cents - that's less than 1/50
of a penny! There is no other MSM product of this quality at a lower price.

Natural Organic Sulfur (MSM) is one of the three major nutritional
components of the body. Unless your diet is composed primarily of raw food,
it is unlikely that you are receiving enough natural sulfur to maintain
optimum health. MSM helps create healthy flexible cells while increasing
oxygen and nutritional uptake. It is recommended that you take equal amounts
of natural sulfur and Vitamin C for best results. 

Suggested use: 500 mg per 30 lbs. of body weight per day or as directed by
your health care practitioner. 


TOPICAL MSM 
For a topical application for muscle soreness, etc., Life Plus has MSM Plus
Vital Care Lotion. In addition to MSM, it also contains whole leaf aloe vera
gel and four other soothing herbal extracts. It has a great natural
fragrance (very light) and is non-greasy and penetrating. It leaves skin
smooth and soft. 

THE NEED FOR MSM 
MSM is Methyl-Sulfonyl-Methane, a naturally occurring organic source of
biologically available nutritional sulfur, an important dietary component in
fresh fruits and vegetables commonly lost during storage and cooking. Sulfur
is a critical component of many important amino acids contained in our
cellular proteins. Sulfur continues to be in studies worldwide examining its
many biochemical functions.Ý 

Life Plus MSM Plus is an excellent source of biological sulfur. It can be an
important source of dietary sulfur, an integral part of many proteins,
hormones and other substances critical to healthy metabolism. Even though
MSM is found in most fresh fruits and vegetables, milk and grains, it is
easily destroyed by cooking, processing and storing of our foods, so it
makes sense to supplement with MSM.

Life Plus 
Life Plus is a science based company, located in Batesville, Arkansas, that
manufactures nutritional, personal care, organic home care, and weight
management products. The parent company (VMNutri) has been in the
nutritional food business since 1936. 

The primary focus of the company has been to develop and market nutritional
products to help prevent degenerative disease and promote optimal health.
Life Plus offers a large selection of the kinds of pharmaceutical grade,
nutritional products that are in high demand. Their prices are competitive
with even the discount priced nutritionals. 

MSM  
MSM has more recently become used as a dietary supplement because of the
outgrowth of research on the well-known substance DMSO. MSM is a stable
metabolite of DMSO, odorless and a very efficient method for
supplementation. Actually, MSM is equivalent to DMSO but contains an
additional atom of oxygen, so it is actually DMSO2. Life Plus MSM uses the
highest quality MSM available.Ý 

The amount of MSM required to obtain maximum benefit will vary among
individuals and according to need. It is suggested you begin with one 750 mg
tablet per day and increase as desired, up to 6 tablets twice a day.Ý Most
people find that 2-4 tablets twice a day is the right amount.

Keep container closed and store in a cool dry place. 

SULFUR  
Sulfur is an important body component. It is essential to life, and a major
component of all living things. It is an element that is quite often
overlooked as a nutrient, but yet is an important ingredient in several of
the very critical amino acids that make up the proteins contained in our
muscles, enzymes and other constituents in our body. Sulfur is in the
proteins which constitute basic hair, nails and skin. The sulfur-containing
structural protein keratin is found throughout the body, from the epidermis
to the hair follicle to the bronchial epithelium of the lungs to the
intestinal mucosa. Sulfur-bearing amino acids are key components of many
functional proteins and enzymes, and important determinants in the
"tertiary" three-dimensional structures, many of which are held in place by
permanent disulfide (-S-S-) linkages-for example, in maintaining the hair in
its natural inclination toward straight or curly.Ý 

SULFUR AND THE AMINO ACIDS 
Sulfur is contained in the amino acids, methionine, cysteine and cystine,
and in the important sulfhydryl tripeptide glutathione. Dietary sulfur can
be incorporated into cysteine, cystine and glutathione. Animal studies using
radioactive tracers show that the sulfur in MSM can even be utilized to
prepare methionine. Key proteins dependent on, for example, the important
oxidation-reduction partners cysteine and cystine include:Ý 

MSM is an abbreviation for Methyl-Sulfonyl-Methane. It is a natural form of
sulfur found in all living organisms and is present in our body fluids and
tissues. It is found in many fresh foods including most fresh fruits and
vegetables, milk and some grains. Even though it is present in fresh foods,
it is easily destroyed in cooking, storing and processing. Due to modern
food processing and cooking, sufficient MSM may not be present to provide
significant biological sulfur, so it makes sense to incorporate MSM as part
of your dietary supplement program when supplemental sulfur is
desired-especially for vegetarians as they may have a shortage of sulfur in
their diets.
