What
is MSM and Why Feed it? Vita Flex MSM is a pure
and natural sulfur nutrient. A form of organic sulfur found
in all horses, methylsulfonylmethane is a bioavailable
source of sulfur, an essential mineral. Sulfur from
methylsulfonylmethane is used in the formation of numerous
protein-rich structures in the body and in the disulfide
bonds that are essential for the proper conformation of
hair, hoof horn and connective tissue proteins, such as
collagen. Like vitamin B12, methionine, and DMG, MSM is also
a potential methyl donor. MSM is widely acclaimed by
veterinarians and horsemen for its contribution to equine
health care.
Restoring
Lost Nutrition Methylsulfonylmethane
is found in very small amounts in most vegetables, fruits
and grains, but it is easily lost due to its volatile
nature. The heat and water processing of feeds and the
drying of hay destroys methylsulfonylmethane. The horse's
diet is likely to contain insignificant amounts unless it
consists primarily of raw, fresh grain or forage.
The
Real McCoy Vita Flex MSM contains
premium quality, ultra pure methylsulfonylmethane. This form
of MSM is appropriate for animal use. You can avoid the risk
of inferior products by insisting on Vita Flex MSM.
Recommended
Feeding For a 1,100 lb horse,
feed one ounce (5,000 mg) once or twice daily added to the
horse's regular feed or give orally. Container closure is a
1 ounce measure. Shake well before using. Reseal after each
use. Store in a cool, dry place.
