Lignisul MSM improves recovery and reduces doctors visits for injuries.

Greenville, PA-A recent preliminary study showed that people suffering from sprains, strains, and athletic injuries may benefit from the use of Lignisul MSM.

The double-blind, placebo-controlled study of 24 patients (both male and female) showed that those taking Lignisul MSM had a significantly improved level of recovery (58.3%) compared to those on placebo (33.3%). In addition, patients on Lignisul had 40% fewer doctors visits before recovery.

"Lignisul MSM should be considered an invaluable addition for the treatment of short-term athletic injuries of the type involved in this study," said Ronald M. Lawrence, M.D., Ph.D., and assistant clinical professor of the UCLA School of Medicine, Los Angeles.

"Lignisul MSM may offer a significant new nutritional substance for the control of arthritic pain without the serious side effects of other pharmaceuticals," Dr. Lawrence said.

MSM Cream for Problem Skin

Research shows that skin can significantly benefit through the nutritional support of topical MSM with its cell renewing properties.

Scar tissue will result without adequate cysteine and sulphur. A proper balance of biologically active sulphur as in MSM (methyl-sulphonyl-methane) helps maintain healthy tissues preventing dryness, wrinkle formation and slowing ageing.

Born Again MSM Cream is a light, easily absorbed cream that combines MSM and aloe vera which leaves the skin a shiny, non-greasy film and soft feel, calendula extract promotes healing and soothes the skin and green tea extract provides important anti-oxidant effects, vitamins A & E are important for skin repair and soybean oil provides essential fatty acids.

Beneficial effects of Born Again MSM Cream include many different skin conditions such as helping remove new scar tissue, acne, psoriasis, eczema, dermatitis, scabies, nappy rash and certain fungal infections. Studies indicate that teenagers using MSM capsules up to 1000mg daily experienced improvement in acne, including acne rosacea, sometimes within one week of use. Itching and dry, scaling skin may be improved also through the use of the capsules and the topical cream.

Radiance Joint Connection Crème also contains MSM plus other ingredients to help relieve muscle and joint pain.
