How Sulphur Helps In Pain Management

We all know that our diet is not absolutely perfect, we probably need to take a vitamin supplement. But how many times have you been told to take your minerals?

You might be familiar with a few minerals such as iron or calcium, but one of the most important minerals, sulphur, might not be so well known.

Sulphur occurs naturally in your body and can assist in keeping joint pain at bay. It must be readily absorbed in order for the body to use it properly and one of the best ways to get more sulphur is to take our methyl-sulphonyl-methane (MSM) powder supplement.

Why Sulphur

Sulphur is an essential nutrient that assists with joint pain because it is a naturally occurring mineral found in the joint tissue. It helps to stabilise connective tissue that is found in your cartilage, tendons and ligaments, and provides the nutrition required for this tissue to remain healthy.

Although sulphur can also be found naturally in eggs, fish and vegetables such as cabbage, broccoli and Brussels sprouts, the way the food is prepared often reduces the amount of sulphur your body absorbs.

By taking an MSM supplement you will get the sulphur you need to assist with:

  • The relief of joint soreness, stiffness and swelling due to its anti-inflammatory properties
  • Why MSM Powder?

    MISMO's pure MSM powder is a highly bioavailable product that is easily absorbed into the body and also easy to take. It is necessary to take pure MSM powder as fillers and anti-caking agents will actually reduce the effectiveness of the sulphur as well as how it is absorbed into the body. A good quality MSM powder like ours will have a larger grain or crystal. A finer powder will clump and is also often a sign fillers have been added to the product.

    Rheumatoid Arthritis Relief

    There are many remedies that assist in relieving osteoarthritis symptoms but not as many for rheumatoid arthritis. However, there are properties in MSM that will assist in pain relief for the inflammation common in rheumatoid arthritis. Osteoarthritis is a breakdown of the joint cartilage whereas rheumatoid arthritis is an inflammatory auto-immune condition.

    MISMO offers a pure MSM powder that contains absolutely no fillers or anti caking agents providing you with the quality you need to assist in fighting the pain and inflammation of arthritis and chronic joint pain.

    MSM (Methyl Sulphonyl Methane or Dimethyl Sulfone) is an organic sulfur compound found in all living organisms. It is the purest and most bio-available form of sulfur, a crucial mineral for life and cellular regeneration. MSM has long been used as a supplement to support joint health, improve flexibility and mobility, and enhance the strength of hair and nails.

    In addition to its joint benefits, MSM is commonly recommended for skin health, helping with conditions like psoriasis and leaky gut syndrome. It’s also supportive for those dealing with mild arthritis and osteoporosis due to its anti-inflammatory properties.

    MSM is recommended for those who:

    • Experience joint pain, stiffness, or swelling
    • Want to improve skin conditions like psoriasis
    • Are looking for strong hair, nails, and healthy skin
    • Seek relief from digestive issues like leaky gut syndrome
    • Want to support bone health and manage arthritis

    What is the science of MSM?

    Sulphur is integral to the production of collagen and elastin, and MSM is a source of organic Sulphur. Collagen is the principal structural protein holding the skin together and is largely responsible for the skin’s mechanical properties.  Approximately half of the body's sulphur content is found in the skin, muscles, cartilage and bones.

    Why do we need to supplement with MSM?

    Natural MSM is largely destroyed when our food is processed and can be lost entirely when foods and ingredients are stored for a long period of time. MSM bonds with moisture, so any food which undergoes any sort of dehydration will lack its natural MSM.

    For these reasons, and because MSM is so critical for almost every athletic function in active bodies, it is important to consistently supplement with a quality MSM nutritional supplement.

    How will MSM benefit me?

    MSM for Skin, Hair, and Nails

    MSM helps protect collagen from degrading enzymes, reducing fine lines and wrinkles by boosting collagen and elastin production. It also increases the body’s natural production of glutathione, a key antioxidant, which supports the immune system, reduces pigmentation, and prevents cellular damage. MSM acts as an anti-inflammatory, reducing cytokine production (inflammatory compounds) and maintains skin cell membrane flexibility, allowing for better nutrient exchange, keeping skin clear and healthy.

    MSM for Joint Health

    MSM’s powerful anti-inflammatory properties make it a natural option for reducing pain and inflammation associated with mild arthritis and osteoarthritis. It helps support joint mobility and flexibility by delivering essential sulfur to cartilage and connective tissue, making it valuable for joint health.

    MSM for Exercise Recovery

    MSM is important for those with active lifestyles, delivering sulfur and methyl nutrients needed for healthy cells in muscles and connective tissues. It supports flexible cell structures, reduces inflammation in muscle tissue, and helps alleviate muscle soreness and joint pain caused by exercise-related inflammation. This makes it especially valued by bodybuilders and athletes for faster recovery and enhanced performance.

    Should I buy capsules or powder?

    The main difference between MSM capsules and powder comes down to convenience and cost. MSM powder is more economical, as you get more product for the price, making it a great option for daily use at home. However, MSM capsules are more convenient for traveling and ideal for those who don’t enjoy the natural bitter taste of MSM powder, offering a tasteless, easy-to-take alternative.

    Where is MSM found and how is it manufactured?

    MSM is found in the fluid and tissue of all living organisms. It is present in a variety of foods including raw vegetables, eggs, milk and fish, but is lost through cooking and food processing. One of the richest natural supplies is pine trees and cabbage.

    Although MSM is abundant in nature, even the richest natural sources only provide MSM in the level of several parts per million. Commercial extraction of MSM from trees is not possible so a process is undertaken which parallels the natural oxidation that occurs in the marine atmosphere and produces MSM that is a chemical compound identical to that found in nature.

    What is the difference between Distilled Ultra-Pure MSM and Pure-Crystalline MSM?

    With the distilled product, the MSM solution is heated up to a point where the MSM is released as a vapour and the pure crystals are formed and harvested as the vapour cools on the inside surface of a distillation column.  The heating-up of the MSM solution and the subsequent cooling and harvesting process requires a lot more energy, and hence the reason why the price is marginally higher.

    With the crystalline product, the MSM solution is spun at super-high speed in a centrifuge and the MSM crystals are formed on the walls of the centrifuge.  The solution has undergone a reverse-osmosis filtration process before the crystallisation process begins and is highly-pure.  This being said, the more costly distillation process is regarded as the gold-standard.

    How pure is MISMO MSM?

    Every batch of our MSM is rigourously tested by an independent laboratory to ensure the highest possible quality with no additives or anti-caking agents. MSM is gluten free and vegan / vegetarian. Packaged in Australia from imported ingredients.

      How much MISMO MSM should I be taking?

      Start with 1/4 - 1/2 tsp per day (or 1-2 capsules). This is to prevent potential detox side effects (headache or nausea). These are easily avoided with a low start dosage and adequate hydration. 

      After one week, start slowly increasing to the average dose of 2 to 6 grams daily (or 5-6 capsules). Most people take a teaspoon (approx. 4 grams) daily. If more relief is needed, increase the dose slowly. Can be taken in water or juice after breakfast, although there are no rules as to when you should take MSM.

      It is recommended to take MSM in the morning, as it can give a boost of energy. Side effects when starting out with MSM can be nausea and/or headaches. This is not uncommon and is linked to the detoxifying benefits of MSM. We recommend lowering your dose if experiencing these symptoms and gradually increasing with time.

      WARNINGS: If taking strong blood thinners, do not take MSM without your doctor's approval. Not to be taken by children without a health professional's advice.  MSM can also interfere with the accuracy of the blood test for liver enzymes by sometimes producing false positive results. It is recommended you cease taking MSM at least 4 days before these blood tests. You can resume after the test.
