Clinical Research Finds MSM Safe & Effective for Osteoarthritis
Jason Theodosakis, M,D., was a guest on the Debra Ray Show. "Dr. Theo" is the #1 New York Times Best-selling author of "The Arthritis Cure". Dr. Theo is impressed with the new research studies finding MSM safe and effective in increasing joint comfort & supporting normal range of motion for Osteoarthritis. Osteoarthritis is when cartilage breaks down in the joints. The inflammation causes swelling, pain, redness, and warmth. Mild inflammation is ok because it brings nutrients to the joints. Low Omega-3, vitamins, and minerals can cause inflammation. 10 to 15% of the population has a sulfa drug allergy, such as antibiotics or antiinflamatories. MSM doesn't cause sulfa allergies. If you already take a combination Glucosamine, Chondroitin, & MSM supplement, the amount of MSM is probably very small. He recommended starting with 1,500 mg of MSM a day in divided doses - with meals. In a few weeks, if you need more relief, increase to 6 grams a day. He doesn't like the MSM made overseas. Dr. Theo likes the US made OtiMSM, available in a number of products. It's distilled 4 times and you know what you're getting. The link below is for 16 ounces of Source Naturals MSM (OptiMSM) powder for about $13. Should last over 3 months even if you take 5.2 grams a day.
