MSM, also known as methylsulfonylmethane, is an organic sulphur-containing compound that forms part of the mineral approach of SuperFeast's health philosophy. Our body’s hormone function, antibodies, antioxidants, and enzymes all rely on having sufficient MSM present to function optimally. MSM is considered an essential building block for the hair, skin and nails and is known as the ‘beauty mineral’. Pure MSM is renowned for supporting joint health, liver detoxification, reducing inflammation and aiding the formation of healthy collagen.
You can take MSM in powder or tablet form. We source pure MSM powder that can be easily incorporated into your daily routine by dissolving it in water, juices or smoothies. You could also mix our MSM supplement in warm lemon water before breakfast. A recommended starting dose is ¼ - ½ tsp per day. Higher doses may be necessary for more chronic conditions, but always consult a trusted naturopath or healthcare practitioner for personalised dosage.
Our pure MSM powder is a safe detoxifier that can be used daily to support the natural detox pathways of the liver. It enhances liver detoxification by promoting the production of glutathione, a powerful antioxidant critical for eliminating toxins from the body. Optimal liver health and detoxification are crucial for overall well-being, supporting various organ systems, including the immune system, hair, skin, nails, gut and hormonal health.
MSM may have a positive effect on joint health by reducing pain, stiffness and swelling associated with inflammatory conditions such as osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. Research indicates that pure MSM exerts an anti-inflammatory effect by reducing cytokine expression, alleviating symptoms and promoting joint mobility. Additionally, sulphur, a component of MSM, is necessary for collagen and connective tissue formation, supporting overall joint health and function. Combining glucosamine with MSM powder, a popular joint health supplement, can further enhance the benefits.
Pure MSM powder inhibits the breakdown of dermal collagen and elastin structures, leading to wrinkle formation and fragile skin. Additionally, MSM powder stimulates the expression of specific genes responsible for healthy skin connectivity, supporting collagen maintenance and firmer skin. Sulphur, a component of MSM powder, is also necessary for keratin and collagen production, promoting hair growth and strengthening nails.
