Exercise in Comfort
Over time, post workout discomfort can start to detract from the healthy benefits of staying in shape. MSM has been studied for years and shows promising results, including helping to ease some of the discomforts from joints and muscles after exercise.
Promotes joint comfort and health
MSM is well-known as a supplement that supports joint comfort and promotes joint mobility and function, and this has been shown in clinical trials. One clinical study even demonstrated that the addition of MSM to the traditional joint health compounds glucosamine and chondroitin resulted in additive benefit.5 In preclinical studies it helped inhibit inflammation to promote joint health.
Helps relieve exercise-induced discomfort
Despite its many benefits, exercise also generates oxidative stress. It is important for the body to maintain a healthy free radical balance. In clinical trials, MSM has helped maintain comfortable muscles and joints and promote healthy muscle structure after exercise. It does this, in part, by defending against the effects of exercise-induced oxidative stress.
