Pure Vita Flex MSM: Your choice for quality and concentration
A Natural Sulfur NutrientVitaFlex MSM is pure dietary methlysulfonylmethane, a natural sulfur nutrient. Methylsulfonylmethane is the primary metabolite of DMSO (dimethylsulfoxide). The majority of DMSO absorbed by the horse's tissues is oxidized to form MSM. A form of organic sulfur found in all living organisms, methylsulfonylmethane is a bioavailable source of sulfur, an exxential mineral. Pure MSM is an odorless, white crystalline powder that is easy to feed to horses.
MSM Helping Horses: After a decade of use, MSM is widely acclaimed by veterinarians and horsemen for its contribution to equine health care. Research has showin MSM's importance as a dietary source of sulfur. Sulfur from methylsulfonylmethane is used in the formation of numerous protein-rich structures in the body. MSM contributes sulfur to the disulfide bonds that are essential for the proper conformation of hair, horn and connective tissue proteins, such as collagen. Even hormone and antibodies receive sulfur from MSM.
Restoring Lost Nutrition: Methylsulfonylmethane is found in very small amounts in most vegetables, fruits and grains, but 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.
Recommended Feeding: Feed one heaping scoop twice daily for the first 7 days. Feed one heaping scoop thereafter for daily maintenance. A 1/3 ounce (10 gram) scoop is enclosed in each bucket.
