MSM is a natural sulphur compound that feeds connective tissue and helps joints stay comfortable through an active day.
People who train hard or stay on their feet all day reach for MSM to help their muscles feel easy rather than tight and spent.
Sulphur is a building block for the proteins that make up hair and nails, and MSM is one of the most bioavailable forms you can take.

MSM brings a natural antioxidant action that helps your cells handle the everyday wear that comes with a full life.
By supporting the body's connective tissues and normal function, MSM helps underpin the kind of energy that lasts through the afternoon.
The same sulphur that builds joint tissue also feeds healthy-looking skin, quietly working in the background every day.
MSM stands for methylsulfonylmethane, a naturally occurring sulphur compound found in plants, animals and the human body. Sulphur tends to get overlooked, but it is one of the most abundant minerals in the body, sitting behind the proteins that build connective tissue, collagen, skin, hair and nails. MSM is a clean, bioavailable way to top it up daily.
Cartilage, tendons and ligaments are all sulphur-dependent. When sulphur intake is low, connective tissue has less of what it needs to stay healthy and resilient. MSM has been used by people who train, people who are on their feet all day, and people who simply want to support comfortable movement as the years go on. It is steady, cumulative support rather than a fast fix, and that is exactly what connective tissue needs.
The structural proteins that give hair its strength, nails their hardness, and skin its elasticity are all built partly from sulphur-containing amino acids. MSM feeds that supply. Many people take it primarily for joints and notice their hair and nails as a pleasant side effect after a few weeks of consistent use.
MSM suits active people who want to keep their joints comfortable through training or work, as well as anyone who notices that recovery takes a little longer than it used to. It is also a favourite for people who eat well and take a few targeted supplements, because MSM fits into any routine without drama. The 60-capsule size is a good choice if you have already tried MSM and want a month’s supply at better value.
Beyond joints, MSM has a quiet antioxidant role, helping the body manage oxidative stress from exercise, diet and daily living. That broader support for cellular health is part of why people who start taking it for one reason often say they simply feel better overall after a month of consistent use.
This is pure MSM in a capsule, no fillers, made locally by Dr. Hester van der Merwe. Dr. van der Merwe uses MSM with the people in her own practice, which is the straightforward reason it made its way into the Anothen range. The full ingredient detail is under Supplement Information.

MSM, short for methylsulfonylmethane, is a naturally occurring sulphur compound found in plants, animals and the human body. Sulphur plays a role in building connective tissue, collagen, skin, hair and nails, and MSM is a clean, bioavailable way to make sure your body has enough of it daily.
One capsule in the morning and one in the evening, with water. Consistency is what makes the difference with MSM, so tie it to something already in your morning and evening routine.
MSM works cumulatively. Most people notice something around the three to four week mark of consistent daily use, though this varies person to person.
If you have already tried the 30-capsule version and found that MSM works for your routine, the 60-capsule size gives you a full month's supply without needing to reorder halfway through.
