Overview
MSM (methylsulfonylmethane) is a natural sulfur-containing compound that is produced in the human body. Although MSM occurs naturally in foods, even moderate food processing destroys most of it. MSM is a source of biological sulfur, which is a major component in many of the body's proteins, tissues, hormones and enzymes. Plants, animals and humans also need biological sulfur for a wide variety of physiologic processes; including detoxification of the liver. Because MSM can inhibit pain impulses, support healthy blood flow and reduce inflammation of tissues, it has also been researched for use as a pain reliever and to support healthy inflammatory response.
Our MSM is a vegetarian nutritional supplement derived from pine trees. Unlike most forms of MSM, which are synthetic, LignisulT is an all-natural source of MSM. In addition, Lignisul has been certified Kosher-Parve by the Kosher Overseers Associates of America.
Our MSM is available in 45, 90, and 180 count 500 mg vegetarian capsules.
