The Miracle of MSM: The Natural Solution for Pain Paperback – 1 Dec. 1999

Msm is an eye opener, after reading this book I purchased some MSM crystals all my family have now started taking it, it's early days yet, I mean we are in the first week of taking it and have yet to find our own level for various problems, but, two important things we have noticed, my husband has suffered with Rosacea for over thirty years. This is a skin condition only gets worse as you get older and can be very embarrassing for those who suffer with it as you come out in puss fill spots across your nose and cheeks and your your skin can go a vivid red and very dry and flaky, it's the first thing people's eyes go to when you meet them. He's had to take prescription tablets and a topical cream for this condition all these years both of which have long term health effects on the body, we have researched natural cures and spent a fortune on new creams and potions for this condition but none have worked. He has been to Chinese herbalists and has drank disgusting concoction for weeks with no effect.With anything I buy I take it first to see if I have any side effects, if I have none I give it my family. (all adults now)Before my husband took it I made a cream and put MSM in it, his nose was very red with 5 or 6 bright red spots his skin was very dry and flaking, within 1/2 an hour of using the cream the redness had gone on his nose and you could see where the spots were but the colour had gone from them and they were barely noticeable, it was amazing.I broke my little finger 6 weeks ago and it was still a little painful and swollen all the top layer of my skin was cracking with it swelling so much, I put a liberal coating of the cream on and within an hour I could see the shape of my normal looking finger and I could move it with no noticeable pain. (You don't have to make a cream, I did because my husbands face goes really dry with this condition, you can just put it in water to dissolve the crystals, if it goes milky looking the crystals haven't dissolved properly, you can warm the water and it will go crystal clear quicker)As I say it's still early days yet but just these results I find amazing, I am so pleased for my husband as he can stop using prescription drugs and use something natural for this condition.I will update this review as and when we see any more health benefits, I'm very cautious about trying and using new things I have to read up and research a lot before I do anything. These are just results from using it topically I am very hopeful now to see results for various complaints as we up our doses, we are on one teaspoon twice a day...This book is very informative, it tells you exactly what you need to know about MSM and how to use it. It gives lots of case studies along with the doses some of people used to be effective. It also tells you what the myths are about msm and what it won't work for.I would recommend this book it gave me the confidence to buy and use MSM.

Excellently laid out book on a substance which does work, is inexpensive and non toxic. After reasing the book I commenced supplementation to see if it would assist with tendonitis and osteo arthritis in the knees. It eases the pain and inflammation considerably, although it is not, and does not claim to be, a cure. Well worth reading.

This book presents a lot of evidence, most of which must be regarded as of rather low reliability - comprising individual case histories. There are also some scientific studies available which tend to indicate that MSM is generally good stuff with a range of benefits.Taken in its entirety, the book does give a solid impression that at the very least, MSM is worth taking, and probably for most people. I take it (along with Boswellia Serrata) for hip arthritis and it has been wonderful. I have also recommended it to work colleagues..I get a number of problems from the arthritis e.g. bone on bone pain which may be helped by MSM (I am not sure), but is a show-stopper when it happens. I also get a kind of restless leg twitching which can go on for hours. The leg twitches spontaneously and unpredictably, and when it does, I can have intense bone-on-bone stabs of pain. This is REALLY unpleasant, especially if it goes on for hours in the night - I then can't sleep. MSM stops that in its tracks (bliss!!!)

Brilliant book and such a great product I love MSM and I can't get enough of the information on it.

Excellent book, very informative, and it helped me to decide to buy this excellent product to conquer my own pain I have due to Cerebral Palsy.Superb, thank you!

Excellent book. The world needs to find out about this natural remedy. I wish , I found out about MSM sooner and my back would have been cured long ago. Every doctor should read it !

fantastic supplement...wasn't sure whether to buy crystals or tablets...these are doing the job...husband free of pain and discomfort in his hips....book is incredibly informative...going to pass it on to friends...

The book is informative, it contains many chapters of particularly stories of people with differing symptoms of pain and how MSM cured them. It starts off with a history and explanation of MSM and goes on to explain it various applications for pain relief mainly by using these particular life-stories.Not the most compelling read but it lays out all you need to know and in a more layman approach rather than too much medical jargon.Personally, I tried MSM for 3 months and I noticed not a jot of difference or change for my symptoms. Magnesium was my answer but then not everything works for everybody in the same way.
