MSM powder

[elinka999]

I have a newbe friend, and she is in her 50s. Before she went raw, she had serious issues with her joints and was taking MSM supplement. After she went raw, she insisted on taking MSM again, so recently she ordered pure MSM powder (Ultimate Raw Foods brand) and she'd like to know what is her daily dosage should be, and what food it can be taken with?

MSM is really a food but it is also an excellent detoxant, so be very careful when starting out. i would only take 1/2 tsp the first week and work my up up to 1 tsp the next week. I have been taking it for years, so sometimes I take an entire tablespoon. She can take it mixed in with fresh squeezed orange juice to counteract the bitterness and to help it absorb into the cells. It also crosses the blood brain barrier. And one last thing....the more bitter it is, the better the product!

I take MSM but I think that Glucosamine is better for joints.
I take half a teaspoon a day.
