MSM 1000 mg, 120 tablets

MSM is essential for life on earth

MSM is comparatively volatile and is lost when exposed to high temperatures or stored for long periods of time. Breast milk is the most abundant natural source of MSM. The relevance of MSM for life on earth is enormous. Life on earth as we know it would not be possible without MSM. MSM is produced naturally as part of the global sulphur cycle: algae and plant plankton in the oceans absorb large quantities of inorganic sulphur from the seawater and transform it into a simple organic form. When algae and plankton die, enzymes break down organic sulphur compounds into dimethyl sulphide (DMS). This is a volatile substance that is only slightly soluble in water. It therefore accumulates in the atmosphere, where it is converted by ultraviolet light and ozone into dimethyl sulphoxide (DMSO) and further into methylsulphonylmethane (MSM). MSM and DMSO dissolve well in water. They provide the necessary condensation nuclei for the formation of raindrops. Clouds do not form and therefore there is no rain if DMSO and MSM are not in the air. Trees and plants absorb DMSO and MSM from rainwater quickly and efficiently through their roots.

Production process

Despite the naturalness of MSM, it would not be practical to obtain it naturally. It would not be desirable to cut down countless trees. Nowadays, DMSO, water and hydrogen peroxide are used as raw materials. DMSO is then converted into MSM using a complex process. It is very important that the manufacturing process used results in a pure end product. Unfortunately, however, this does not seem to be the case in the production of MSM. The expensive distillation process, which effectively removes any impurities in the raw materials, is absolutely preferable to the often used (much cheaper) crystallisation process.the quality of OptiMSM® Vitals is based exclusively on MSM from Bergstrom Nutrition (OptiMSM®). Bergstrom has invested many decades in research into the development, optimisation, production, application and safety of OptiMSM®. It is an ongoing process in which the highest quality is the criterion. Only high-quality materials and raw materials are used in production. Bergstrom also utilises a unique multiple distillation process that is considered superior. Production takes place exclusively at a single location in North America. The production facility is used exclusively for MSM production.</pphr Tests are carried out by an independent laboratory after each manufacturing step. This method ensures that quality is guaranteed throughout the entire manufacturing process. The result is a very high quality MSM product: OptiMSM®. OptiMSM® has proven to be the purest product in all comparative tests.
