Suggested intake
Take 1-6 tablets a day, with meals, building gradually.
In some cases MSM may have an initial laxative effect. This is normal and should stop within a few days. Drink plenty of water. Reduce intake if symptoms are uncomfortable.
Perfect for psoriatic arthritis
By Laura - 17 November 2014
I inherited this condition via family genes and once I realized I had it, straight away started taking high doses of MSM. Higher Nature suggests up to 6 tablets a day, however there are independent studies by medical experts which show that people with arthritic conditions can take much more than 6g a day with no side-effects and plenty of benefits. I take 9g a day and as a result I have no joint pain. I use Higher Nature MSM cream for the psoriasis which also works really well. Without the MSM my life would not be worth living! And it's far better than being on steroids. Higher Nature MSM is one of the purest - other firms' products don't have the same effect, I really recommend it. (Tip - if you're an arthritis sufferer like me, try gradually working up to higher doses until your symptoms are alleviated. If you don't notice a change, you're probably not taking enough.)
Excellent for my knee
By Mrs G Callaghan - 21 July 2013
I have wear and tear in my knee, which causes me pain and stiffness. Since taking MSM the difference is amazing. I have stopped a couple of times and each time I realise how bad my knee is without them. What a fantastic product. I take them 2 or 3 times a day.
