The ‘other’ MSM

I’d like to share with you a life-changing experience that happened to me when I was in the worst shape physically (and psychologically) that I had ever been in.

My troubles began on Christmas morning in ’95, as I was driving a friend to her son’s house in San Pedro. We were sitting at a red light behind a Toyota Forerunner for at least a half a minute, when a car (a Cadillac with a drunk driver, no less) hit us from behind. Unfortunately, I happened to be talking to Lee at that moment, and I was facing her. I never saw it coming. We were slammed into the truck in front of us, and my head was snapped sideways. The impact tore the custom bumper most of the way off the truck, but didn’t do much damage to my car.  

The real damage didn’t manifest itself until a few days later. It began with a tingling that started at the base of my skull, then continued down the left side to the end of my shoulder. That was all it was at first, just a tingling, but after three or four days, it evolved into some of the most excruciating pain I have ever had to deal with. Some mornings I would get up, and as soon as I would turn my head, a massive bolt of pain would shoot down my neck and left shoulder, literally bringing me to my knees. Now, unless you have ever personally experienced a severe case of whiplash, you have no concept of what it is like. Nearly wholly debilitating is the best I can think of to describe it. I simply could not function normally, and working a job was unthinkable.

A friend recommended his doctor, and for the price of an office visit, he prescribed 100 ct. 750mg Vicodins a month. At first, one was sufficient, but in less than a year, I built up a tolerance. After that, two were needed, and later on, three. The drawback of the Vicodin, however, was that it only provided temporary relief from the pain, without addressing the root cause, which was nerve damage. The pain was so intense some mornings that I would break the pills in half, take them on an empty stomach, and just sit still until they took full effect. This went on for about 2 1/2 years.

Then, early in the summer of ’98 I ran into a friend I hadn’t seen for some time. He told me about a product that had recently come on the market (3 months prior to our meeting), called MSM (Methylsulfonylmethane). There was only one company at that time that held the patents (on purity) for it. His brother-in-law worked there, and that was how he found out about it.

Pineapple had always had medical problems as long as I’d known him. He was taking at least a half dozen or more prescriptions at any given time. I was amazed when he told me he was no longer taking any of them, which he attributed solely to MSM. He knew what I had been going through, and was sure the MSM could help, so he gave me a bottle of 500mg. capsules and told me to take at least six or more a day. He explained that there is no toxicity level, since the body simply flushes any that isn’t utilized.

I began taking them that day, two or three in the morning and the same in the evening. Incredibly, within little more than a week, I was finally free of that pain, and it’s never returned in all the years since. I’m convinced that the nerve damage has been completely healed, and I am healthier now than I have been since my thirties (62 this May 3).

MSM is a free radical scavenger. It flushes the toxins from the system, as well as eliminating many other health problems. It is a 100% natural product, found in all plant and animal life. The problem is that our diets are very poor in MSM, due to the extensive processing of food these days. Most of the MSM is destroyed in the processing.

I could post a list of all the benefits of MSM, but it is extensive, since it covers a plethora of medical conditions. Suffice to say that I attribute the majority of my good health these days to MSM alone. It’s the one thing I make sure to never run out of.

There are now many different brands on the market, and caution is advised in choosing one. There is MSM being sold that is actually NOT good for you. DO NOT buy anything from China , period! They use a different processing method (cheaper, of course), and their product has been found to be contaminated with undesirable elements, so I highly recommend that you buy only U.S. manufactured MSM. I’ve been buying mine from the same company for over sixteen years now, and although the name has changed several times, the product has remained unchanged. It is 99.99% pure MSM (the other .01% is water). While the patents were still in effect, every other company that sold MSM had to add something (chondroitin & glucosamine were the two most commonly used). I prefer mine pure, with nothing added.

This is my personal experience with MSM. I have met others with similar results. I think I can safely state that without it, I seriously doubt that you would even be reading this now, because in all likelihood I probably would not have been able  to accomplish the research I’ve done in the last few years, in which case I would still be blind to the truth about the NWO. I truly believe that.

When I post anything I’ve personally written, I tell people NOT to take my word for it, do the research themselves. There is no excuse not to, with the internet available to all.

Disclaimer: (expected by the so-called ‘government’) I am NOT a licensed physician (nor would I be stupid enough to be one), this is NOT professional medical advice (doctors aren’t trained OR qualified to give any REAL health advice, so THAT much should be obvious), I’m simply posting my personal experience with this product, for the purpose of informing people about what has been keeping me healthy long enough to be around for the hang-fest of this communist so-called ‘government’.

“There is a principal which is a bar against all information, which is proof against all argument, and which cannot fail to keep man in everlasting ignorance.

That principal is condemnation before investigation.”

My prayer is for the best possible health for all of my good friends here at FTT.

  1. No personal experience, but I’ve heard similar claims made about MSM in the past. I hope you’re feeling okay, Hatr.

    1. Thanks, JR. Not feeling too bad… for an old geezer.

      Hate to think where I’d be without the MSM, though.

        1. Thanks, Clark.

          It’s tomorrow, but I’m not adverse to starting the celebration early. 🙂

  2. Hey #1 thank you for sending this in. I too have had positive results with MSM. If you feel comfortable can you say where you purchase yours? I have been getting mine from Nowfoods, but would like to check if your brand is less expensive. this stuff is truly effective with 3 impinged nerves i suffer with.

  3. Hey #1, I took your recommendation and found that my brother’s health food employer sells this MSM in bulk manufactured out of Florida. I also got some apricot kernels on the way.
    In the meantime, there’s this place where the deer run along the shoreline splashing up water, where the eagles dive in the water to grab lunch, and the bass and walleye jump right in your boat. Yes #1, I’m going to heaven, I’ll be back tonight with a full report! 😆

  4. Hemp seeds contain the protein needed to repair damaged DNA and THC actually promotes neurogenesis. The concentrated cannabis oil will dissolve the buildup of crap in your abdominal cavity. The true absolving of “sins”. There is no need to consider anything else, this is the alchemists secret.

  5. I never heard of this ‘MSM’ before…but now I’m very interested, indeed.
    Thank you for sharing this information!

    Does anyone wish to make a suggestion as to where to purchase ‘made in the USA’ MSM?

    1. Thank you very much! I trust Dr. Mercola as well…
      I’ll also be checking out Joe’s (Jstp) suggestion… for -some- reason I
      like just about anything to do with ‘hemp’!

      Isn’t it amazing that some of us can go more than 50 years without even hearing about certain things?

  6. I have been using it for 20 years, not so much now. I use Hemp powder Gold from HempUSA.org and Wobenzym form Germany, Mark K. turned mr on to this its a great product. I would not be walking if not for these two products. I do love MSM its a great tool and I get my from Vibrant life.

  7. This is the site I get my MSM from. They are the original distributors in the U.S. I also buy my vitamins & coral calcium (best kind available, the most absorb-able) from them. The owner is Clyde, and we’ve been good friends for years. It also helps that he’s awake… :-). Although he doesn’t post on FTT, he has read the articles I’ve written in the past, and knows my user name here, so he’s a Trencher at heart and will be more than happy to talk to you.

  8. You’ve got me and my hubby VERY interested. We had just bought a book about DMSO right before you posted this article and now it’s like we might save a step with MSM. Also, thanks for turning me on to it in that post about Tyson’s chicken and the antibiotics.

    1. 😀
      Trenchers are good people, sharon. We help and stand by each other any way we can. 😉

    2. Hey Sharon. I use DMSO topically for muscular pain from O.S. It works well on moderate muscle inflamation.

          1. If I need to tell you, I’ll just say what digger would say about DMSO. “It’s the best transdermal delivery system for a multitude of uses.”

          2. oh yeah. i forgot. Ive got a 71 year old brain Millard. It don’t work like it used to . haha.

          3. Yeah Paul, sometimes I feel like the cheese may have slid slightly, but it immediately corrected itself!

          4. 😆 I remember Digger talking about the cheese sliding off the cracker. 🙂

          5. Can’t get closer to the truth if you tried. Digger was an enigma. He was very mysterious and “Witchy” about things. Digger’s classic answer to every question was, “Perhaps”! 😆
