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.

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.
