What is MSM 1000 - 100 capsules from Pure Nutrition?
MSM stands for methylsulfonylmethane. Methylsulfonylmethane is the oxidized form of dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO), an organic sulfur compound (also known as an organosulfur compound) formed from lignans. It is also known as dimethylsulfone (methylsulfone) or DMSO2.
This organic sulfur-containing compound occurs naturally in some green vegetables and other foods, and is also found in the human body, many animals, and milk. It is also a natural substance made by phytoplankton in the oceans.
MSM is one of the most popular supplements for joint health due to its anti-inflammatory effects.
Many benefits of MSM supplements are attributed to biologically active sulfur, which is the fourth most abundant mineral in the human body. Sulfur is needed for many different critical bodily functions every day, and MSM is considered a sulfur donor.
In supplement form, it is often used alongside other ingredients that support joint health and connective tissue healing – including DMSO dimethyl sulfide and sulfone, glucosamine/chondroitin, and boswellic acid.
MSM is known for its many benefits to the body. It is used to treat literally dozens of diseases and painful symptoms.
For example, research shows that MSM benefits include improving immune function, reducing chronic inflammation, and helping to rebuild healthy body tissue.

Health benefits of MSM:
- Treats osteoarthritis and joint pain - MSM supplements can help treat arthritis because they help the body form new joint and muscle tissue while reducing inflammatory responses that contribute to swelling and stiffness. Sulfur also affects the immune system and facilitates normal cellular activity.
- Improves digestive problems - MSM can help repair the lining of the digestive tract and reduce inflammatory reactions in response to allergic reactions to certain foods.
- Helps with skin conditions - MSM can help improve skin tone, reduce redness, relieve sensitivity, and treat other symptoms associated with rosacea. MSM also helps us retain valuable collagen and keratin because sulfur is needed to produce these “youthful” compounds. As we age, we lose collagen and healthy tissue, which is why our skin’s tone and elasticity suffer.
