How does MSM Lotion Plus Work?MSM penetrates the skin and cell membranes and acts as a transdermal carrier for the other active ingredients. It recharges the anti-oxidant Vitamins C and E, and strengthens connective tissue. MSM passes through cellular membranes of body, including skin. Its primary actions include: inhibition of pain impulses along nerve fibers, lessening of inflammation, increasing blood supply, softening of scar tissue, and reduction of muscle spasm. The mechanism of action of tincture of Arnica is is not completely understood. Arnica has been used for centuries for its wound-healing, anti-inflammatory, antiseptic and analgesic properties. Boswellia blocks the pro-inflammatory enzyme 5-lipoxygenase which is the first enzyme in the highly inflammatory leukotriene pathway. Boswelia also decrease the activity of another pro-inflammatory enzyme known as human leukocyte elastase. It alters the expression of the cytokine tumor necrosis factor. |
Active Ingredients in Opti-MSM Lotion PlusMSM, or methylsulfonylmethane, is an odorless, non toxic metabolite of DMSO that is responsible for the good things associated with DMSO, but it does not make the patient smell like dead fish. Allergy to sulfa drugs is not a contraindication to the use of MSM.Arnica, an herb that has a long history of use for both acute injury and chronic pain. It is approved by the German Commission E for external use for these purposes. MSM and Arnica appear to be synergistic when used for pain control. Boswellia blocks the pro-inflammatory enzyme 5-lipoxygenase which is the first enzyme in the highly inflammatory leukotriene pathway. It also decreases the activity the pro-inflammatory enzyme human leukocyte elastase and alters the expression of the cytokine tumor necrosis. |
