What is Rosacea?

 

Rosacea also known as Acne Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory skin problem characterized by redness and/or surface veins on the cheeks, nose and chin. It can be controlled but not cured.

Rosacea is not well understood and characteristically affects people with pale skins, blue or blue/green eyes and generally starts in middle age. For some reason it is affecting more young people now than ever before. People with darker skins also get rosacea, but the signs are less florid. Small papules (or lumps) which may become pustules (pimples) are often present. It may resemble acne but if you look closely at the skin, you will not see any open or closed comedones (blackheads or whiteheads).

It must be remembered that in almost all cases of Rosacea, the connective tissue in the affected area is fragile, so steps must be taken to keep the tissue in good health to reduce symptoms and outbreak re-occurrence.

Most people who have rosacea will remember a parent, grandparent, aunt or uncle with a red face or bulbous nose (men).

Sun damage plays a big part in the development of rosacea so if you or your children have fair skin this is a serious reason to avoid sunburn or over exposure to sun and UV rays.

Eyes are often affected and can feel irritated, dry, red and gritty. This is called ocular rosacea and is often an early symptom of rosacea. Cod liver oil fortified with Vitamins A & D is a great help for this problem. It's available from health food shops. Micro-genics is a good brand.

Usually the central areas of the face are involved. While this is a chronic disease, in the early stages redness or flushing tends to come and go. Eventually redness remains and the complexion is ruddy. In some cases there are periods of remission, and at other times, it is worse. Broken capillaries or spider veins are commonly seen on the face but particularly on the nose, cheeks and chin.

In men the nose is almost always involved and after many years, may become thickened and misshapen. A potato-nose (called rhinophyma) is always due to this condition.

Rosacea sufferers tend to have build up of layers of dead skin cells. Exfoliation is critical and blocked pores resulting in breakouts can be avoided when exfoliation is done on a regular basis.

Powder or Capsules?

MSM Powder – Dietary supplement for general wellbeing and an active lifestyle. The most economical option and perfect for daily use at home.

MSM Capsules – TGA-listed medicine containing the same MSM powder. Convenient for travel or if you prefer to avoid the taste.

Benefits

  • ✅Supports joint health and movement – Encourages flexibility and mobility for an active lifestyle.
  • ✅Promotes strong cartilage and connective tissue – Provides essential sulfur to maintain joint integrity.
  • ✅Boosts skin hydration and elasticity – Helps support collagen production for smoother, healthier-looking skin.
  • ✅Encourages strong hair and nails – Contributes to hair strength and reduces brittleness.
  • ✅Assists with post-exercise recovery – Supports muscle and tissue repair after physical activity.
  • ✅Supports digestive function – Helps maintain overall gut health and nutrient absorption.

Why It Works

MSM is a natural source of sulfur, an essential nutrient involved in collagen formation, connective tissue maintenance, and overall recovery. Since modern food processing reduces sulfur levels in our diets, supplementing with MISMO MSM helps replenish these vital nutrients for long-term well-being.

Who is it for?

Individuals looking to support joint flexibility and movement, skin hydration, strong hair and nails, and overall wellness.

How to Use

MSM should be taken daily, and results should not be expected immediately. The recommended daily dose is 2–6 grams.

  • Start slow: Take 1–2 capsules daily (equivalent to ¼–½ teaspoon powder) and allow your body to adjust.
  • Increase gradually: After a week, increase to 5-6 capsules daily (equivalent to 1 teaspoon powder), based on your needs.
  • Best taken in the morning: Many users find it provides a natural boost when mixed with water or juice.

Some people experience mild detox effects when starting MSM, like slight headaches. If this happens, lower your dose and increase gradually. This is a sign that MSM is working.

MSM with Vitamin C and Collagen

Pairing MSM with Vitamin C and Collagen can help absorption and effectiveness. Vitamin C plays a key role in collagen production, which, when combined with MSM, helps support joint health, skin elasticity, and overall well-being. Many people take these together as part of their daily routine to support healthy aging, mobility, and skin vitality.

MSM with Magnesium

MSM and Magnesium also work together to support muscle recovery, joint health, and overall well-being. MSM helps with flexibility and inflammation support, while Magnesium plays a key role in muscle relaxation and nerve function. Many people take them together to help with muscle tension, post-workout recovery, and overall mobility. Pairing MSM with Magnesium can be a great way to support an active lifestyle and daily comfort.
