NPC MSM

MSM supplement for horses and dogs to help reduce inflammation in muscles and joints.

Supports joint health, cartilage, connective tissue, skin, coat and hoof quality.

MSM provides a natural antioxidant for healthy movement and maintaining health in both horses and dogs.

This MSM supplement for horses and dogs offers an ultra-pure source of bioavailable, organic sulphur. MSM in a highly pure form offers a naturally occurring source of sulphur to support healthy muscles, joints and connective tissues of all horses and dogs.

Why sulphur is important

In nature, soil microorganisms convert sulphur compounds into sulphates which plants absorb to manufacture sulphur essential amino acids such as methionine, cystine and cysteine.

These sulphur bonds are found in connective tissues which provide structure and strength and are essential for healthy hooves, hair, as well as tendons and ligaments.

How dose MSM work in the body and what are the benefits?

MSM benefits the body by lending sulphur to complete numerous (some 300) internal chemical reactions in order to naturally support health where it has been proven to help with inflammatory conditions.

Therefore, is useful to reduce joint inflammation associated with trauma, injury or degeneration (osteoarthritis).

Animals such as dogs and horses where joints have become stiff also benefit from daily supplementation.

What is the dose of pure Methyl Sulphonyl Methane (MSM)?

Daily dose for horses of 500 Kg bodyweight:

6-12 grams for ease of movement or for other minor inflammatory conditions
20 grams may be used for inflammation, but as a short-term measure before the dose is decreased
Daily dose for dogs of 25 Kg bodyweight:

 1 – 3 pinches mixed with food, high dose 6 pinches.
What is the MSM dose for horses with arthritis?

Clinical studies show a higher dose of up to 20 grams (per 500 Kg) administered to horses improved lameness scores and also showed no change in blood chemistry.

However, this later dose would be recommended as a short-term measure only, due to MSM being a nutrient and where no nutrient should be used excessively in the diet.

But at the recommended dose MSM can improve healthy function and support muscle and joint health by helping to also reduce inflammation.

Should I use MSM and Glucosamine together?

MSM and Glucosamine provide further benefits when combined to provide the nutritional blocks for healthy joint cartilage and synovial fluids, together having a synergistic effect for maintaining healthy function and reduce inflammation.
