Methylsulfonylmethane, also commonly referred to as MSM, has become a trendy dietary supplement in the past few years after numerous large-scale studies emphasized its performance and health benefits. People have been using MSM as a natural way for decreasing inflammation and pain associated with exercise, enhancing recovery, and reducing oxidative stress.
Methylsulfonylmethane functions basically in an antioxidative capacity. It focuses on minimizing the damage caused by free radicals. MSM is a minute molecule and can easily be transported across body cells. This enables a widespread effect at both cellular and tissue level.
A clinical case study indicated that participants took 50 mg of MSM powder per kg of their body weight for a period of ten days. The participants experienced reduced muscle damage due to the antioxidant effect of MSM. Another study showed that participant women received three grams of methylsulfonylmethane daily for three weeks before a half marathon. Another group were exposed to a placebo effect. The recipient group that used methylsulfonylmethane reported significantly less joint pain and muscle soreness.
