We don’t talk nearly enough about our mineral tonic herb, the magical MSM. We take it pretty much every day for detoxification and beautification, here’s why.
Known as the ‘beauty mineral’, MSM is a naturally occurring form of organic sulphur. It is considered an essential building block for the hair, skin and nails, as well as supporting joint health, liver detoxification and reducing inflammation. MSM is a powerful and safe detoxifier that can be used daily to remove bad calcium and oestrogen from the body and help build collagen and prevent premature ageing. Our body’s hormone function, antibodies, antioxidants, enzymes all rely on having sufficient MSM present to function optimally. The reason so many benefits are attributed to the MSM supplement is that MSM provides biologically active sulfur, which is the fourth most plentiful mineral in the body and needed for many different critical bodily functions every single day.
One of the most important features of MSM is that it makes your cells more permeable. This means that it allows toxins and metabolic waste (including lactic acid) products to easily be moved out of the cells, while essential nutrients and hydration can be moved in.
MSM plays a major part in the body’s ability to produce collagen. As an essential ingredient in tissue to hold the human body together, collagen provides structural support and impacts the flexibility and resilience of skin. Sagging skin and wrinkles, as well as dry, cracked skin, are all developed through a loss of collagen. MSM works together with Vitamin C to build new, healthy tissues. MSM can normalize collagen formation and radically improve skin health. Collagen and keratin are both vital for the production of healthy hair and nails. MSM provides the sulfur needed to produce collagen as well as keratin. MSM has known to contribute to an exceptional thickness of hair and nails.
