Methylsulphonylmethane (MSM) is a naturally occurring organic sulphur compound found in all living plant and animal tissues this is in a form that is easiest to introduce into the body.

In the clinic we felt if we could tag the MSM and send it to specific places to do specific things it would be a very helpful addition to our therapy modalities. We found that MSM was used in the body the way the body wanted, it didn't necessarily take our direction. We found that Herbal MSM, in addition to the plethora of systems it positively affected, assisted in the absorption of any other herbal/vitamin/mineral supplements and formulas that were taken with it.
