OptiMSM®

What is OptiMSM®?

MSM, methylsulfonylmethane (METH- l-sul-FON-il-METH-ane) also known as dimethyl sulfone (DMSO2) and methyl sulfone, is a source of organic sulfur important for optimal health.

Sulfur is a nutrient that acts as a critical component of key molecules that make up connective tissue throughout the body, including joint and skin tissue. Sulfur is also a major building block of one of our body’s most critical antioxidant defense systems, which helps defend us against oxidative stress and free radicals¹.

Premium Products

MSM is a sulfur-containing compound and can be found naturally in high-concentration in plants and animal sources. However, for vegans and vegetarians, relying on plant sources may prove to be difficult since the sulfur content of soil influences sulfur concentrations in plants which can vary greatly.

OptiMSM® is the only GRAS-designated Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) manufactured exclusively in the USA in a single-purpose, cGMP-compliant, ISO-registered facility to help provide essential traceability. It’s produced using a proprietary, multi-stage distillation process, ensuring optimal purity, and every batch is third-party tested for purity, quality, and consistency.
