MSM: Healthy Joint Support
A source of organic sulfur, MSM may help supply bioavailable sulfur that is integral for creating and maintaining the structure of healthy cartilage. Bioavailable sulfur helps maintain the structure of connective tissue by forming cross-linkages through disulfide bonds. In short, the body uses sulfur to strengthen joint tissue.*
Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) are the fundamental building blocks of joint cartilage, and GAG molecules are linked together in chains by disulfide bonds. As the name implies, these bonds are between two sulfur atoms. The disulfide bridges reduce conformational flexibility of GAG chains, making cartilage firm and resilient. Cartilage integrity is thus a sulfur-dependent state.
While sulfur is critical to good joint health, it is important to note that, unlike MSM, inorganic sulfur salts like sulfates and sulfites are not well utilized by the body and are, instead, removed as waste. Thus, glucosamine sulfate and chondroitin sulfate are not good sources of bioavailable sulfur, and MSM can make a significant difference.*
Wilke Resources provides high-quality sources for all of its joint support ingredients. We can help you upgrade your existing product or create a new joint health formula that meets and exceeds your customers’ expectations.
When it comes to MSM, purity is the difference.
Wilke Resources’ MSM (Methylsulfonylmethane) is single-sourced and is a high purity (99.9%), white crystalline powder. MSM is a naturally occurring nutrient found in small amounts in many foods. As a dietary supplement, MSM is synthetically produced and is identical to that found in nature.
