User Reviews for methylsulfonylmethane (msm)

Started taking 1/4 tsp. in a hot beverage twice daily, symptoms stopped. When I don't take it the symptoms re-appear, nose running, sneezing, itchy eyes. Went for allergy testing and I'm negative to everything. Explained to Doctor what I was taking and no symptoms. I also have arthritic pain in the joints of my feet, I walk between 4-6 miles daily on concrete floors in nursing. Helps to stop the pain. My feet ache but are not in pain.

Let me start by saying that I take a lot of natural supplements every day, but if I had to choose only one, it would be MSM. If my joints are a bit sore I take 1 teaspoon mixed in juice twice a day until the pain goes, in about 3 days then one teaspoon a day is enough. One tspn is 4 grams. You need at least that much to be effective 8-10g/day is good. It's hard to overdose because it's a natural sulphur compound found in many unprocessed food. It isn't a sulphite and you cannot be allergic to it. In fact it will help you with allergies. So don't take my word for it get some it's cheap you won't believe how good it is, but it lives up to the hype just get the pure powder and take that much.Read More Read Less

Originally bought to grow my hair. Then it took away my severe leg and joint pain. Now I can't go without it.

Have been using MSM, for over 16 years. I am very satisfied with it. Had car accident when I was 21. At age of 50, I started suffering with joint pain from the numerous broken bones. At age of 66 now, I have very little pain since I started taking MSM. It took a good 30 days for it to start working for me. 1000mg tablet, once a day.

Great for inflammation and hair but really increases my appetite.

Have been on MSM for twenty years. Used first for arthritis, then for my allergies. it works great for me, but looking to see if anyone has had long term use side effects from it?

Cured tendonitus of my shoulder over a period of 3 months.If very deficient will need to build up MSM in body for it to become effective. Also gentle exercise and or physio helps.

Took a course of MSM to help with a tendon problem and found that my hay fever became virtually non existent.Also sorted the tendon problem.

I am allergic to grass, trees and weeds. I took allergy shots for 6 years. Prescription allergy meds are very ineffective for me. Taking 2000 MG of MSM a day (starting in February) has changed my life. I can now enjoy my summer without feeling like I have a bad cold. Even my Dr. is impressed.

Had terrible arthritis pain at base of my thumbs in both hands. After several weeks of 3000mg daily of MSM purchased from GNC, the pain is almost totally gone. Stopped it for a while, pain returned and I'm back on it, forever!!!

I noticed an improvement in 3 days and 90 percent pain free in 7 days. It's a wonder for me with fibromyalgia also. I wish I knew about it 20 years ago.

I started taking this after being diagnosed with rosacea. I'd been using my RX topical treatments for a couple weeks with minimal results. This stuff is a miracle! Overnight my redness was reduced 50%, and in 3 days it's now 95% better most days. I had a flare from sun exposure a few weeks ago, and my nose has been a tad red for a few days, but it's better now. I'll never stop taking it. It also helps w/my arthritis (knees, neck) and my fibromyalgia.

I have osteoarthritis in both hips and lower spine. It was very painful to walk or exercise until I started using MSM. I am now quite mobile and only experience minor pain occasionally when exercising. I take 1500mg daily.

joint calcification in thumb, and similar issue in ankle. Thought i was going to have to give up sport because of thumb pain. Cortisone injection works, but only provides temporary relief. This stuff is almost a miracle. No more thumb pain and ankle is improved. Increased energy level as well.

I bought and used a MSM product from No Boundaries Health and Wellness. My morning stiffness is much better and my hip and knee pain is much less.

Im only 33 but i have a signs of arthristfrom my family background. Thesedays i felt some pain on my hip bones and knees and ankle and im taking MSM 3000mg cranberry 750mg vitamin C and D 2000mg per day since a week ago. Amazingly my pains has gone! I thought i might have imflammation on my hip bones from squats and leg exercise recent 2months or UTI but all the symtomes have gone and im pain free...and normally, i would be so tired after 2hrs moderate workout and would feel extream pain on my knees and ankle. But after taking these, i feel only 20% of pain i used to have and would go through whole day.Read More Read Less
