MSM
Methyl Sulfonyl Methane (MSM) is a naturally occurring organic sulfur compound found in our bodies as well as in many common beverages and foods, including milk, coffee, tea and green vegetables. Enerex’s MSM is an odorless, essentially tasteless, white, water-soluble crystalline solid. It is guaranteed 99.9% pure, and is one of the safest substances in biology, similar in toxicity to water.

Methyl Sulfonyl Methane (MSM) is a naturally occurring organic sulfur compound found in our bodies as well as in many common beverages and foods, including milk, coffee, tea and green vegetables. Enerex’s MSM is an odorless, essentially tasteless, white, water-soluble crystalline solid. It is guaranteed 99.9% pure, and is one of the safest substances in biology, similar in toxicity to water.
MSM is derived from pine trees and contains naturally occurring organic sulfur (not to be confused with inorganic sulfides, sulfites and sulfates). MSM and its related compounds are the source of 85% of the sulfur found in all living organisms. Many researchers believe that sulfur, the eighth most abundant element in the body, plays an important role in human nutrition.

MSM
- Helps to maintain the structure of the proteins in the body</li>
- Helps in the formation of keratin which is essential for hair and nail growth</li>
- Aids in the production of immunoglobulin which maintains the immune system</li>
- Catalyzes the chemical reactions, which change food into energy.</li>
MSM has been shown to
- Inhibit pain impulses along nerve fibers (analgesia)
- Lessen inflammation
- Increase blood supply
- Reduce muscle spasms
- Soften scar tissue
MSM can help hair and nails to grow stronger and healthier due to its sulfur content. Cystein and cystin, two amino acids that add strength to hair and nails both require sulfur as building blocks.
MSM can ease hay fever symptoms by blocking the receptivity of histamine in the sensitive tissues. This prevents the histamine from producing inflammation, swelling, and fluid build-up, thus relieving the symptoms of hay fever. Additionally, MSM is one-third sulfur, a substance that aids in the production of antibodies that can combat the germs and allergens, and produces beneficial enzymes.
MSM is widely used by athletes, bodybuilders and fitness enthusiasts to reduce the pain, soreness and inflammation associated with injuries, strained or cramped muscles and over-extended joints. Aches and pains in the knees, shoulders or other joints are often greatly reduced, and delayed-onset muscle soreness is greatly diminished. MSM reduces muscle soreness and inflammation by dilating the blood vessels to increase the supply of blood into the area of soreness. MSM can help alleviate allergy symptoms by blocking the receptivity of histamine in the sensitive tissues. This prevents the histamine from causing inflammation, swelling and fluid build-up, thus relieving symptoms. MSM provides sulfur that aids in the production of antibodies that combat germs and allergens, and produces beneficial enzymes.
MSM’s anti-inflammatory properties can bring relief from the aches and pains of arthritis. MSM helps in the healing process by increasing the blood flow to the affected areas, helping to reduce pain and swelling. MSM contains an analgesic that acts locally (in the area of the pain) and in the brain, slowing the neurological impulses that cause pain. MSM can be taken orally or used as a gel or lotion on the surface of the joint.
MSM can help headaches by reducing the amount of muscle spasms that occur in the area behind the neck. When taken daily, MSM increases the size of the blood vessels allowing for more blood flow to reduce the inflammation and tension that can cause headaches.

Enerex products are housed in recyclable BPA-free PETE plastic containers to
provide the best protection against oxidation, moisture, sunlight, and
chemical migration from container to product. In all of these areas, PETE is
virtually equal to that of glass but without the larger environmental
footprint left by glass packaging. PETE plastic is far superior to that of
HDPE plastic in all regards; HDPE plastic is used for the majority of
products on the market. Unlike more costly PETE bottles, HDPE plastic
facilitates the immediate degradation of the product inside as it is not a
barrier to oxygen or moisture; studies also show high concentrations of
chemical migration from HDPE bottles to product relative to that of PETE and
glass bottles.
