A nutritional supplement for dogs and cats to support joint and connective tissue health. Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) is a naturally occuring sulfur compound found in every cell of the body. It has a vitamin-like normalizing influence on body functions. A low concentration of Methylsulfonylmethane in the body has been associated with both physical and psychological stress, organ and tissue malfunction and fatigue. Sulfur is found in small amounts in fruits, vegetables, and grains but because of its volitile nature, it is easily lost.
Supplementing the diet with additional sulfur ensures the body's ability to synthesize collagen for connective tissue health, maintain membrane flexibility and promote cell regeneration. The concentration of Methylsulfonylmethane in the body begins to decrease over time, so deficiencies may occur as part of the aging process. Sulfur deficiencies are associated with brittle nails and dull fur and poor gastrointestinal, immune system, joint and connective tissue functions.
