Hi All:
I am taking 5 gms of MSM daily.( divided in 2 doses.) I also take Vitamin C (sodium Ascorbate) with it.
I have noticed bigger/ better BMs. Sometimes when I take too much, diarrhea starts.
Can this amount b taken indefinately. When should I take a break. Is there any harm in supplementing with MSM long term?
thank.s

gosh, where do i get MOLYBDENUM from. Maybe I should just quit this MSM....
I am getting confused. I read we can take Sodium Molybdate ~ 50 mg just once a month and it will take care of this element... Does it make sense.

This is a reply to # 881,46650 mg sounds like a lot. The protocol I used recommended 300mcg per day for 120 days, and I now use 150mcg per day a few times a week, not including the amount in my multi.
MSM has been very helpful to many people, but complementary nutrients ensure that it keeps being beneficial. If you take a multi with 75-150mcg per day, that may be enough. Unfortunately, it is all so very individual.

This is a reply to # 881,439Hello!
Do you know how long it takes for moly to work? Silly question I know, all the minerals that I notice "doing" something for me do so in a mater of hours or a day at most. I get insomnia from sulfur minerals and I took the moly for over a week and still the sulfur based minerals caused me insomnia.
Also have you noticed that moly inhibits any of your other minerals?
thanks!- Re: MSM question prettysoulful

Moly helped me with brain fog and dizziness when my candida was at its worst. It also helped my not have pain when I would take MSM(both kidney and bladder pains). It also helped me better tolerate eggs. I had results within a week, 2-3 days, after I started taking it.
If you are reacting to MSM, I'd just drop it. It competes with calcium and potassium, both of which can affect sleep. It can always be added back once other things get balanced.- Re: MSM question San2006

Thats interesting, because so far ( figners crossed) I have never had problems with Insomnia. I can crash on the bed and go to sleep.
MSM has not affected my sleep so far.

I tend to be the opposite of everyone. I'm a thin hypothyroid. I tend to be low in copper while others seem to be high. I tend to be high in magnesium, while others tend to be low. And, I tend to be sensitive to MSM while others can swim in it. I want to take it so bad, but eventually I always seem to react. Moly helped, but I still can't take MSM like others. 500mg once or twice a week is my max, and then it is usually good if I skip a week. And I'm fairly certain it isn't detox, as I don't get any other detox symptoms(which I have gotten with other cleanses), I only get an aggravation of my interstitial cystitis.
So, you shouldn't have any problems. Listen to your body, and you will be fine.

This is a reply to # 883,009I am also sensitive to MSM. After I took it for a month (500 mg./day), my digestion and my thyroid shut down. So much for it being non-toxic up to 10 grams/day.
Learned some interesting things out of that. I don't think it was the sulphur; I think it was the methyl groups. Seems I may be Folic acid deficient. The folate/methylation cycle is complex. Still trying to understand it.- Re: Also sensitive to MSM. prettysoulful

Even water can drown you. MSM is great for some, and I wouldn't knock it if it works for someone. I even recommend it to my mother. But, it just causes me pain.

Yes. Actually, I'm not knocking it. I think sulphur is a very overlooked aspect of nutrition. Lots and lots of good things about it. MSM got rid of my hyperthyroidism, and I felt great for a few weeks.
So like all other supplements, individual results may vary! Particularly if you have another deficiency of an interdependent facotor.

This is a reply to # 883,044This sounds interesting and scary. Digestion and thyroid shutting down because of MSM?. WOW. I think I am gonna go off it for a few days and see how it goes.

So you'll know what to watch for:
The stomach issues started gradually after I'd taken MSM for about a month. I kept getting these mild stomach aches. I didn't connect them to the MSM and I kept plodding forward. I had a hair analysis that showed I was extraordinarily low on sulphur, so I assumed I should continue. But the stomach pains progressed to burning pain, and then eventually I was doubled-over with what felt like acid burning a hole through my stomach. My doctor told me it was actually low stomach acid, and after reading about that, I discovered that low stomach acid can be a sign of thyroid dysfunction. I discovered that if I started taking my thyroid meds again, the stomach pains lessened. And eventually stopped.
That took care of the burning acid pain. But my digestion was just completely halted. No stomach sounds or activity, and I constantly felt bound up.
Histamines are involved in release of hydrochloric acid. I eventually found a site that said alpha-methyl-histamines stop the release of hydrochloric acid. That's when I started researching methylation and folic acid.
Histamines are also involved in wakefulness. Histamines on - wakefulness. Histamines off - fatigue/drowsiness.

Hi:
I have read that MSM is acidic and can make body acidic. So I was wondering were you doing any kind of alkalizing while on MSM protocol.
I alakalise every morning and before bedtime, by drinking a mix of ACV+baking soda..OR lemon+ baking soda. This should be done on an empty stomach.
I also take Buffered Vitamin C ( Sodium Ascorbate). I never take Ascorbic Acid. I always try to neutralise Ascorbic Acid with Baking Soda before I take it.
Perhaps this is the reason, MSM is not giving me any grief (so far) . I like ACV/lemons because it has potassium as well. But I always neutralise the acid with Baking Soda. Give it try.

This is a reply to # 883,873Sorry - didn't see this until now.
No, wasn't doing any alkalyzing.
Thanks for the suggestions. Right now I'm working on folic acid/niacinamide and other B vitamins, and want to see how that goes for a few weeks. Have been considering ACV but wasn't sure of what amount and how often. What is the reason for adding baking soda to the ACV? How much do you add?
I suspect my MSM situation isn't likely to happen to most people. I have odd reactions to MSM, ascorbic acid, selenomethionine, and few others that aren't coming to mind at the moment.
Best wishes,

ACV is in general good. The reason for adding baking soda is to neutralise the acid in it and make it buffered (non -acidic). I have been feeling much better with buffered ACV. Also since the acid is neutralised, it does not bother the teeth....
I got this recipe of ACV+baking sada from a guy named TED who posts on EarhtClinic. Greay guy and great remedy... read it all and then try it if convinced.

Thanks. thats what I read that MSM has the same toxocity as water. I was just wondering that can too much of Sulpur throw some other mineral out of balance.
I kind of like MSM. ( have been on it for past 10 days only) I read that it increases the "cell wall permeability" thus enhancing the absorption of nutrients...I like that concept.
Also I am assuming Vitamin C is pretty non-toxic and can be taken long term. I kind of like the effects of MSM+VitaminC. Just want to make sure, I am on the right track. But I think, I should take breaks from this too. Like, not take it on weekends. 5 days on and 2 days off approach.
