Skin is the largest organ in the human body: Deep within the skin is an extensive molecular structure that needs to be protected and supported. OptiMSM® is a clinically researched MSM, with results demonstrating that oral ingestion may help to improve skin firmness and skin hydration.
Studies on OptiMSM® have shown multiple benefits for the skin, from reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, to improving skin texture1,2. With a daily dose as low as 1g, OptiMSM® is the easy choice for your next food supplement, supporting skin health.
MSM (Methylsulfonylmethane) acts as a bioavailable source of dietary sulphur, providing skin with critical nutrition and helping it to stay healthy.
Sulphur supports skin in two ways; firstly, by providing critical building blocks that the skin relies on, and secondly by supporting important antioxidant systems in the body to help defend against oxidative stress3.
Sulphur is known for being a key component in the production of collagen. Furthermore, a new study has demonstrated a potential synergy when Collagen peptides are combined with OptiMSM®4.
OptiMSM® is a high-quality, MSM manufactured in the U.S. using a proprietary multi-stage distillation process that removes impurities. Available in two grades, microprill and flakes, OptiMSM® is ideal for various supplement formulations including tablets, capsules, and liquid shots.
