SU-PER® MSM contains MethySulfonylMethane (MSM) and provides support for stiffness and discomfort, and supports a normal response to inflammation associated with physical activity. Whether for the equine athlete, or the backyard pleasure horse, MSM is an effective, yet very economical, supplement to add to any regimen. And as a dietary source of sulfur, it is essential for the proper formation of new hair, hoof, and connective tissues (such as cartilage, ligaments, and tendons).

MSM has numerous benefits, including support for healthy lungs and respiratory system, maintenance of a healthy immune system response, support for a healthy gastrointestinal system, and much more.

The most common use of MSM is in the performance horse, where it can help manage soreness and stiffness, as well as support a normal response to inflammation. It’s been shown that giving MSM for several days leading up to competition can lessen joint and muscle soreness experienced by the athlete. It has also been reported to lessen recovery times in humans by reducing oxidative stress, which is caused when free radicals are created during intense exercise. MSM can help to neutralize these free radicals by increasing the body’s amount of the powerful antioxidant Glutathione.

In older horses, MSM can be very beneficial for those with ongoing joint issues. It can help to maintain healthy joint tissue as well as relive stiffness and soreness. And all horses can benefit from MSM’s ability to improve immune function. In recent years, MSM has become more popular in helping to support skin and coat health. As a source of sulfur, it can support keratin usage, which is a protein used to form hair, skin and hooves. It also works to lessen allergy-related skin issues, as MSM can lessen some common allergic reactions.
