Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM, or dimethylsulfone) is an organosulfur compound with the formula (CH3)2SO2. This colourless solid features the sulfone functional group and is considered a relatively inert chemically. It occurs naturally in some primitive plants and is present in small amounts in many foods and beverages and it is sold as a dietary supplement. i take msm in its pure form. but some say that it is good when taken with other minerals for better absorption. i am not sure really if there is an effect on me. i just take it because i was told it is good. how about you? have you heard or tried msm? :-)

My Mother in law takes MSM for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. She said in time it relieved the numbness and pain. It can be taken alone or in combination with glucosamine sulfate. It works by reducing the inflammation and has no side effects.

really?... it's like a cure-all organic supplement... very very interesting. how much does it costs? does it come in a capsule or tablet form? hmmm... could it be bought over the counter? if you ask me, what i find very beneficial are teas. especially green tea, it lowers blood cholesterol, blood pressure, blood sugar and prevents several forms of cancer. moreover, prevents arthritis, and detoxifies the body. i try to drink it frequently. yesterday it was featured in yahoo news as tea-the elixir of life. how about you? are you a tea-drinker like me?:-D
