What Is MSM?

[SuperCozmos]

Can msm repair the brain tissue also because I just started taking it today and I feel less foggy. My sinuses have cleared up a little and my ears opened up and I hear a little better, to. Couldn't just be placebo no way. I'm using gnc brand the 90 caps bottle. The other one came with like 160 but it contained vanilla and I'm trying to about sweets.

[SuperCozmos]

I bought some msm capsules today, 1000 mg. I took four and honestly I can already feel its affects a little bit. I also saw the movie Immortals, great movie. Om shanti shanti shanti

Ok, so I think it was an inner ear thing, unrelated to MSM (maybe) I've been irragating my sinuses, and my ears, and I felt a flushing and 90% relief.

Maybe the MSM caused excess mucus in my ears though? Not sure. Weird either way. Intense dreams persist.

[musicman02]

Call me crazy... but I started taking MSM 3 days ago, and the first night I took it, I started getting dizzy spells.

I've had pectus excavatum (v. minor) so I chalked it up to that, but it continued, and then I realised it started exactly when I took MSM. I just had a heavy duty dizzy spell 2 minutes ago, thought I'd ask what you think?

[musicman02]

@musicman02 I had a nap after writing this comment, and... It was the weirdest sleep I've ever had.

INTENSE dreams. Some involuntary thrashing. Dizzyness whilst asleep.

Dreams were paranoid, cinematic, all encompassing...

I thought I had been asleep for 3 years. In reality, less than 3 hours. Is this part of detoxing??

Most MSM's on the market are Petroleum based, so you have to be sure you are buying from a company that ensures it is PLANT based.

[quinieleong]

how much msm you use to reduce stretch mark?

[sp0rk89]

question. Are supplements just as good and what brand do you prefer. I had msm but it was the powder couldn't do it. Sooo supplements okay?

[herbgardner00]

@sp0rk89 yes both are OK. i usually use Ultimate SuperFoods Brand

[goldenlightiii]

msm and silica works good together.

[herbgardner00]

@tiatdivad that product is pretty cool.

[Necrowitch]

i take my msm with zeolites ever since I found out it helps detox mercury... and if someone with mercury poisoning takes msm.. it makes them not feel so great.. like i was feeling with msm.. so i took zeolites and they made me feel sooooo much better!!! so necro thinks shes got some mercury poisoning going on... which isn't surprising considering the seafood junkie she was before going raw!

[herbgardner00]

@Necrowitch excellent insight

[gabagne]

I'll try it, thanks for the info.

[herbgardner00]

@gabagne youre welcome :)

[JackNeedles]

I actually like to put some msm in my herbal elixirs. I just use a very small amount and the kind I use doesn't really change the taste of whatever I am adding it to.

[TerminusIntroduction]

I just noticed the same thing about my skin the other day, a bit tighter and stretchier, but didn't really realize it was the msn doing it's job. But now you confirmed it, nice!

[IamDemetri00]

msm is basically powdered dmso derived from tree bark..i take it everyday, its the best

[herbgardner00]

@IamDemetri00 i havent tryed dmso yet, ive been a bit intimidated by it since its such a powerful solvent. how do you work with it?

[teclo28]

Have you tried phytoplankton or maca? If so, what are your final verdict? ;)

[herbgardner00]

LOVE both of those products :)

[headfake]

Thanks for the info, I'll look more into it. One supplement I take without question is vitamin d3. I'd like to know your thoughts on this. My baby daughters and wife take it too. It seems to help us all stay well.

[herbgardner00]

@headfake after doing a bit of research it became pretty obvious to me to supplement vit d in some form or another. especially during the winter.

[me2gingko]

i take two or three tbsp a day... one tbsp mixed with a small dose of camu camu in eight oz of water is a pleasant combo. the msm will also help your body absorb the vitamin C from the camu camu.

[herbgardner00]

excellent strategy

[charlesobama]

how much a day ?

[herbgardner00]

@charlesobama i usually do 1 or 2 TB per day, tho you will probably want to start with 1 - 2 tsps per day and work up to that.

[WinWinSituations]

It made snow white, but not the 7 dwarves. I try to take MSM every day! It definitely helps skin, hair, and nail growth.

[herbgardner00]

@WinWinSituations ha! excellent point :)

[glamourgirlholly]

I can imagine its really helpful for pregnant women to reduce stretchmarks?!

[herbgardner00]

@glamourgirlholly it would be one of my top recommendations for sure.
