A well-researched MSM benefit is that it helps decrease joint inflammation, improves flexibility and restores collagen production. It can help form connective tissue and repair joints, tendons and ligaments. MSM seems to help the body’s natural free radical-scavenging abilities, which means it lowers oxidative stress as well as the many ailments that come along with it. One of the most notable attributes of MSM supplements is that they help accelerate healing and “detox” the body by improving how chemicals enter and leave our cells. MSM essentially makes cells more permeable, releasing certain built-up minerals that can cause problems (like calcium, for example), heavy metals, waste and toxins, while also helping usher in nutrients and water.Ingredients: Proprietary Blend, OptiMSM®, Hydrosol Silver (10ppm), N-Acetyl-L-Carnosine, Colloidal Zinc (10ppm), Purified water According to the FDA, “using contaminated eye drops could result in minor to serious vision-threatening infection which could possibly progress to a life-threatening infection.”

Emotional side effects caused by MSM can be equally as debilitating and frightening, including anxiety and mild to severe depression. Mood swings may also be more pronounced. The voluntary recall is the latest in a series of FDA warnings about the safety of certain eye drop products.On August 22, the FDA issued a warning on eye drops containing the active ingredient methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) due to bacterial or fungal contamination or both.

MSM has been shown to repress the expression or activities of STAT transcription factors in a number of cancer cell lines in vitro [ 99, 100, 101]. The janus kinase (Jak)/STAT pathway is involved in regulation of genes related to apoptosis, differentiation, and proliferation, all of which generate ROS as a necessary signaling component [ 102, 103, 104]. Signaling through the Jak/STAT pathway may also be stifled by reduced cytokine expression. Downregulation of the Jak/STAT pathway may further reduce ROS generation by decreasing expression of oxidases [ 105] and B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2) [ 106]. The FDA’s latest warning follows two other similar incidents this year, during which eye drop products were recalled due to contamination. We all have sulfur present in our bodies at all times, but our sulfur levels can drop as we get older, when we’re stressed and if we normally eat a low-nutrient diet. The principal dietary sources of sulfur are the amino acids called methionine and cysteine. Tripathi R, Gupta S, Rai S, et al.

View abstract.In a separate earlier incident, Pharmedica USA issued a voluntary global recall of two lots of its Purely Soothing, 15% MSM eye drops, the FDA announced on March 3. In rats, between 59% and 79% of MSM is excreted the same day as administration in urine, either unchanged or as another S-containing metabolite [ 64]. Urine is the most common form of excretion as MSM has been detected in urine of rats [ 63, 67], rabbits [ 4, 5], bobcats [ 68], cheetahs [ 69], dogs [ 70], monkeys [ 66], and humans [ 4, 62, 71, 72]. Additionally, excretion of MSM can be contained in feces [ 63, 64] or several other biofluids including cow’s milk [ 54, 73], red deer tail gland secretion [ 74], and human saliva [ 75]. Myriad types of bacteria, when instilled directly into the eyes, have the biological capacity to cause infection,” Adalja told Healthline in an earlier interview. Artificial tears, like those in the recalled EzriCare drops, are the mainstay treatment for dry eye disease, according to Jeffrey H. Ma, an ophthalmologist at the UC Davis Eye Center. Ma specializes in ocular surface diseases — diseases that damage the surface layers of the eye. Nieman DC, Shanely RA, Luo B, Dew D, Meaney MP, Sha W.

MSM Drops soften the membranes of the eye which perform similar functions, allowing them to be more permeable so that nutrients can pass through and provide nutrients to heal damage to the eyes. MSM Drops not only softens tissue, but repairs damaged membranes, equalizes pressures, clears up red spots and broken vessels, helps remove blemishes and other tissue particles.

At this point, the FDA says it is not aware of any adverse events from the use of either of these products. It’s available in powder form most often. You might find it in powdered supplement mixes, such as green powders or digestive aids. MSM powder is believed to be the most absorbable kind.
