Pain Support Bundle - Collagen + MSM

Collagen: Proteins are essential nutrients for our body. They are made from long chains of amino acids. Collagen peptides are proteins that are highly bioavailable. Consumption of collagen peptides will help supply your body with amino acids needed as building blocks to renew tissues such as skin, bones and joints.

It has been proposed that collagen peptides may act as a messenger to the cells and trigger the synthesis and reorganization of new collagen fibers, therefore supporting skin tissue structure.

MSM: MSM’s effect on pain is due to the following actions on the body:

• MSM is a natural pain killer and works by blocking the conduction of pain impulses through nerve fibres.
• MSM prevents inflammation by increasing the activity of cortisol, which is a natural anti-inflammatory chemical produced in the body.
• MSM improves the absorption of nutrients such as vitamins and speeds up the elimination of excessive cellular fluids and waste products from the body.
  This is achieved by increasing the permeability of the cell membrane.
• MSM enhances blood circulation through the body by dilating blood vessels.
  This further helps in healing by increasing the elimination of waste products from the body.
• MSM is a muscle relaxant and alleviates pain by reducing chronic muscle tension, which aggravates many types of chronic pains.
• MSM boosts the immune system by regulating the formation of antibodies, immune complexes and the metabolism of prostaglandins.

Collagen: If you have a medical condition or are pregnant, please consult your medical doctors or healthcare professionals.

MSM: It should not be taken with the blood thinner Warfarin, or by persons allergic to shellfish. However,
MSM is safe even when taken in high doses.
