WELCOME AND THANK YOU FOR VISITING MY WEBSITE
This website is a work in progress started in 1997, so come back often as I continuously find new discoveries to increase our knowledge of the importance of MSM, nature's component that provides the sulfur needed by every living organism and especially our body.
Knowledge is the key to success. If we learn we will achieve. If we set our sights high when establishing our goals and objectives and persist in preparing ourselves with the knowledge to accomplish our goals, remarkable things will happen.
Most of us have heard or read the above axioms. However, very few in the medical field and even much less in people suddenly afflicted with a debilitating disease apply it to their life.
In our rapidly changing world, it is not what we know that matters.
It is what we do to keep up with our rapidly changing world to increase our knowledge and achieve our personal health and professional goals.
Health is one’s most important asset and too many of us just waste it due to a lack of knowledge.
With good health, one can achieve one’s personal and professional goals.
Believe me, whatever your age and whatever frightening health diagnostic you receive, you will gain a lot in educating yourself on the benefits of MSM, the sulfur nutritional supplement. I am thankful I did nearly thirty years ago and for me it has been a marvel, but most people call it a miracle.
The time you take to educate yourself on something that can improve your health and that the medical field will not inform you about is well invested. The reason the medical field will not inform you about this is that they never heard about MSM and don’t take the time to educate themselves about the importance of MSM on our body’s functioning.
For many health conditions, what you will learn on this website may not only help you live a mostly pain free life without medication side effects but may also allow you to live five to ten years longer.
Please allow me to ask you for a favor; if you are here to educate yourself on MSM, ITS IMPORTANCE IN OUR LIFE, AND ITS PROVEN SULFUR NUTRITIONAL SUPPLEMENT'S HEALTH BENEFITS, please read the first six sections of this website by following the direction at the end of each section without bypassing the reading of one of these sections. By doing so, you will also do yourself an enormous favor.
These six sections appear in the first six tabs at the top of every page of this website.
By doing so, every time you read one of these six section, you will better understand where some of the information you are reading comes from. But most importantly, you will not find similar information or anyone else in the world who knows about MSM and all what MSM does as an important constituent of your body.
My reasoning is that one needs to know as much as possible about MSM, the importance of sulfur in our life, and why we do not get the sulfur that our body needs in our diet, so one understands why we all need MSM and why MSM may help the conditions in the section MSM MAY HELP THESE CONDITIONS and even conditions not in this list of CONDITIONS.
There are some links in these first six sections and in other pages that will bring you to other pages of this website or pages on the internet, IN AN OTHER WINDOW OF YOUR BROWSER. You may follow these links and take some notes as these WINDOWS will not direct you back to where you were before you followed the link. I recommend you close these WINDOWS after reading to come back to THE WINDOW where you were before following the link. The reason is you may crash your computer if you end up with too many open WINDOWS in your browser.
There are many instances in these first six sections that are important to understand some MSM information about its origin, how to use it, and also importantly on some warnings. Please understand that you are educating yourself on an extremely important constituent of our body that is most unknown in the scientific and medical communities. You will learn why the scientific and medical communities and most everyone in the world has never heard of MSM AND ITS BENEFITS.
You will also learn how to modify your diet to get more MSM and increase your knowledge of the importance of exercise for the brain and the body to live a healthier and longer life.
Anytime you want to search for a word that you have seen on this website and want to go back to it, just go at the bottom of any page and insert the word in the search field. The results will show all instances of the word on this website.
As a summary of what you read above, just remember, whatever your knowledge, education, and profession is, expand your horizon.
NEVER STOP LEARNING BECAUSE LIFE NEVER STOPS TEACHING.
As for me, I have always said:
A DAY IN MY LIFE WHEN I DO NOT LEARN SOMETHING IS A DAY LOST.
And I can honestly tell you that unfortunately I lost many days.
But I am catching up.
THIS WEBSITE’S SUBJECT follows immediately after the following DISCLAIMER:
I do not work, and I have never worked in any scientific or medical fields, so whatever you read here is my opinion on:
1. MSM the sulfur nutritional supplement and topical healing aid used by the scientist Dr. Stanley W. Jacob, M.D., F.A.C.S., in his Oregon Health & Science University, Portland, Oregon, research medical clinic in his first twenty years of identifying MSM, having it synthetically manufactured, and observing MSM’s health importance and benefits reported in his book “The Miracle of MSM” published in 1999,2. My own nearly thirty years’ experience using MSM, after I discovered MSM when no known medical modality could relieve my pain after six to eight months of a neck injury. You can see my experience here “NECK INJURY” and you will understand how I learned about MSM and why I decided to help others know about MSM by writing this website.3. MOST IMPORTANTLY, the more than six hundred peer reviewed studies published in the last twenty-five-years on MSM as a possible treatment agent for many of the most severe inflammatory and autoimmune health disorders. Most of these studies were done following Dr. Stanley W. Jacob's clinical team’s MSM health benefits observations reported in his books, and were published in the National Library of Medicinehttps://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov and a few in the Journal of the American Medical Association4. My over ten years of research from the publication of the above-mentioned book to today on everything MSM and the importance of sulfur in our life. I ended up asking myself; why is it that in the twenty-first century these two subjects are so unknown from the scientific and medical communities,
all written in my own plain language. Since my native language is French, my English writing is certainly not perfect, so I hope you will understand.
The book “THE MIRACLE OF MSM” contains approximately two-hundred-thirty pages, compared with this website that contains two-hundred-ten pages. This website is written with a three-quarter larger font size to accommodate older readers who need MSM the most. This website ends up with approximately sixty percent of the book’s printed material but covers the book and some information from over twenty-five-years of other printed material published after the publication of the book.
One does not need to be a medical doctor to be able to read and understand that new medicine discoveries often take a long time to be perceived by the scientific and medical communities. Similar statements made by different medical field scientists over the years are reported on this website.
This website just like the book above is about MSM, a constituent of all living organism, and one of the most important constituent of our body as a sulfur nutritional supplement and the use of MSM in topical application. It is not intended as medical advice and should not be used to replace medical care, or any therapeutic program advised by a physician.
This website is meant for information and educational purposes only, so more people may realize the importance of sulfur in our life and use the MSM sulfur nutritional supplement and MSM in topical application,
TOGETHER WITH BRAIN AND BODY EXERCISE,
TO PREVENT MANY HEALTH CONDITIONS, COMPLEMENT THEIR MEDICAL TREATMENT, AND CONSIDERABLY IMPROVE THEIR OWN HEALTH AND LIFE.
As you will realize, I see exercise of both the brain and the body as extraordinarily important health benefits, and I report on this website the same opinion given by many medical professionals.
Every time you see MSM on this website, just like in the book above, it refers to our body’s natural constituent MSM used as sulfur nutritional supplement or in a topical application.
When MSM dosages are mentioned on this website, they are suggested MSM sulfur nutritional supplement dosages taken from the book above based on Dr. Jacob’s clinical experience and not from myself. Dr. Jacob mentions that MSM sulfur nutritional supplement benefits have been observed in seventy percent of his patients in many different health disorders. If one does not see results after six months, one may just stop using it. However, everyone I know who has tried it for a health condition experienced relief in an exceptionally brief period.
When people do not get the MSM benefits observed by Dr. Jacob, it is often because these people do not understand how to use the product. This is why it is important that you keep reading all the way past Dr. Jacob's biography page.
What I mean by this is one is alone in how to use the product as doctors do not know about MSM and cannot advise you. One cannot consider MSM as medication and worry about its dosage for interaction with medications. MSM has been observed in a thirty years medical research practice and in many published peer reviewed scientific studies showing it did not interact with any medication. MSM is not medication, as food supplement or in a topical use, it could be considered as a treatment agent, but what is important to understand is that it is one of the most important constituents of our body’s functioning.
The importance of the statements in the two above paragraphs has been demonstrated in a few published peer reviewed studies that found MSM not to be effective in some health conditions BECAUSE THE STUDY’S AUTHORS (MOST OFTEN DOCTORS) DID NOT HAVE ENOUGH KNOWLEDGE OF MSM TO USE A HIGHER DOSAGE TO GET POSITIVE RESULTS. They did not have any intention to find out if a higher dosage would have better results just like all medications prescribed in the lowest dosage to start with and the dosage is increased to a higher level if the original dosage is insufficient.
THIS IS WHY IT IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT THAT YOU KEEP READING ALL THE WAY PAST DR. JACOB'S BIOGRAPHY PAGE OF THIS WEBSITE.
On this website, when I write about health disorders not covered in Dr. Jacob’s book, I give my opinion based on the benefits of MSM observed by Dr. Stanley W.Jacob in his research medical clinic and the dosages suggested by Dr. Jacob in similar disorders as his suggested dosages in the book are quite simple.
I also include information from other books written by Dr. Jacob, and other printed medical sources reporting on MSM and the importance of sulfur in our life.
There is much information quoted on this website, and I do not always provide the references. However, if someone wants to see the references, they are all available in the book "The Miracle Of MSM" which I recommend everyone to read.
Dr. William Regelsort, M.D., medical oncologist and gerontologist, professor of medicine, Virginia Commonwealth University wrote the following statement in his foreword of the book The Miracle of MSM, "Only your experience can establish the validity of the claims for MSM."
At eighty-six years young, in 2025, this is the reason I provide here a valuable MSM opinion, because of my nearly thirty-years' experience taking the MSM sulfur nutritional supplement and using an MSM topical ailing gel, and my over ten years of research on everything MSM.
I have personally experienced MSM's relief in a sizable number of extremely debilitating diseases. Surprisingly, MSM gave me a mostly pain free life in a fully nontoxic natural process without any of the medications side effects and their excessive cost. And I know that my overall wellness is from MSM as I do not take any medicinal drug.
If I did not take MSM, I would not be able to stand up on my feet since I reached the age of sixty-five, just like actor James Coburn was for many years before he discovered MSM after twenty years of arthritis suffering. Or I would have to take pain medication for life with all that comes with it. Even with my substantial MSM daily dose, I cannot walk barefoot and it is a challenge for me to even stand in the shower.
However, my most convincing source of information, which came after Dr. Jacob's books publishing, comes from over six hundred peer reviewed biological and medical studies on MSM published in the last twenty-five-years in the public U.S. National Library of Medicine, National Institutes of Health. (The world’s largest biomedical library).

THIS WEBSITE’S SUBJECT:
This website is the most comprehensive sulfur and MSM website presented to educate all who want to increase their knowledge on what are the most important health benefits information of sulfur, “the forgotten essential element” and MSM, the natural sulfur nutritional supplement.
I named this website “msm4all” for the following reasons, because ALL of us need MSM, and MSM is the natural agent that brings the essential mineral sulfur needed by ALL parts of our body to keep ALL the most debilitating diseases and many more at bay.
Our body is a sophisticated machine that needs one hundred and two different minerals, lots of water, and exercise to work properly and one of the most important minerals in our body's functioning is sulfur.
One must know what food will give you the needed minerals and how to avoid excess or shortage because both extremes can put a lot of stress on the body’s functioning. It can even kill you if one has too little calcium, or too much of a trace mineral like Iron.
Both our body and its brain also need a lot of exercise; if one does not get it, it will go to waste. We all heard the idiom “USE IT OR LOSE IT".
Unfortunately, too many people do not know and understand the importance of continually exercising both the body and the brain. As one will see in the EXERCISE section of this website, the brain needs exercise from birth on, AND ESPECIALLY IN THE FIRST TWO YEARS TO PREVENT PERMANENT DAMAGE.
In 2023, the current life expectancy for U.S. citizens was 76.1 years, which is the lowest it has been since 1996.
We see people living in the US more than a hundred and ten years, why and how do they do it? In many doctor's opinion, it is due to a few crucial factors, good nutrition based on one’s minerals needs, endless body and brain exercise, doing what you love, everything in moderation, and always with a positive attitude. You will find more about this in the EXERCISE section of this website.
I find it outrageous that cancer is the second-leading cause of death in the world and the number of cancer deaths increases every year instead of decreasing. What is even more outrageous is that the number of deaths and its annual increase is amplified in the most developed countries, and the USA tops the field as you will see further on this website.
This website is not your typical doctor's website to sell you some bogus supplement that is supposed to help your health, but what they are selling you does not give your body more benefit than many drugs do. And most importantly, these theories of benefits are most often based on suppositions not supported by any medical clinical experience research as MSM is.
I wrote this website to educate people on MSM, the sulfur nutritional supplement that is part of our body’s constituents, belongs in our body, our body suffers tremendously due to a lack of it, and I do not sell any product.
Once you learn this, you can help yourself and anyone you know who may be afflicted by a disease that MSM may help. And you will see that there are many, especially the most challenging inflammatory and autoimmune diseases.
If you experience pain and you want to live mostly pain free, it is worth looking at MSM to relieve pain and accelerate healing. MSM is not medicine, it is a natural molecule, already an important constituent of our body found in every living organism, that one can take as sulfur nutritional supplement, and use in a topical healing aid.
I dedicate this website to Dr. Stanley W. Jacob, M.D., F.A.C.S., the American scientist who dedicated most of his professional life to the research and therapeutic application of DMSO and MSM for the wellbeing of his patients, but most importantly for the advancement of MEDICINE.
For over thirty years, Dr. Jacob used MSM at his Oregon Health and Science University world renowned research chronic pain clinic to relieve pain and accelerate healing of over 43,000 patients, using DMSO and/or MSM, two sulfur treatment agents. Many of them, including myself, were chronic illness patients that no medical specialty or alternative medicine specialty could help.
Note: The book “THE MIRACLE OF MSM” published in 1999 contains many testimonials from different medical professionals, and from some of the over thirty-thousand patients of Dr. Stanley W. Jacob, M.D., who have used and benefited from the use of MSM.
I report here on this website some of those testimonials, but I omitted to mention their name as I did not seek their authorization to do so. Their testimonials and names are in the book.
I am humbled to have met Dr. Jacob in 1997, in Las Vegas, after I obtained relief with MSM as a sulfur nutritional supplement and healing aid, and when no medical specialty or modality treatment available could help my debilitating neck injury after some eight months of suffering.
This experience allowed me to live a quasi-normal life from there on, provided I take the MSM supplement. And looking at people my age after using MSM for over twenty-five-years, I realize that MSM not only helped me with my different debilitating ailments but also helped reduce the effect of age on my body. I surprise everyone when I tell them my age and how handicapped I am.
The two-hundred-fifty-page book above is a summary of Dr. Jacob's team observed MSM’s benefits in their first twenty years of medical clinical experience using MSM in their medical and research practice to treat some sixteen thousand patients at the time of publication.
The first six sections of this website are an introduction including my disclaimer and a summary of the book and some reports on sulfur in our life, on MSM medical peer reviewed research studies published in the last twenty-five-years, and my opinion of the reasons why MSM the sulfur nutritional supplement that provides us with 34% sulfur is needed by our body.
Our need for sulfur supplementation is due to the extreme changes over the last century in our diet, due to the cooking of our food, and the chemicals in the air we breathe in our environment that created the inevitable deficiency of this extremely important mineral for our body.
But most importantly, the 2010 USDA report that the nutrients and minerals depletion in our soil due to the industrialization in our farming practices went from 450 PPM in 1910 to 40 PPM a hundred years later, in 2010. This means that there is extraordinarily little MSM and sulfur in the food we eat and the major reason we all need MSM as sulfur nutritional supplement.
This even affects our domesticated animals because of the manufactured food that we give them. According to US veterinarians, the known percentage of domesticated animals, cats, dogs, and others, which die from cancer is more than 50%. This percentage does not include the animals that the owners do not report their pet's cause of death to a veterinarian. Many pet owners do not have the money to visit veterinarians.
It is simpler, more comprehensive, and more beneficial for most people to read this website that gives a summary of the book together with the additional extremely important MSM and sulfur information obtained from new additional twenty-five-years of over six hundred published peer reviewed medical research studies that did not exist at the time of the printing of Dr. Jacob's book.
IT IS VERY IMPORTANT BEFORE YOU GO FURTHER ON THIS WEBSITE, BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY BEFORE YOU START TAKING MSM, TO REMEMBER THAT MSM IS A POTENT LAXATIVE.
On many medical websites that address the use of MSM, most often they will say that MSM has a major side effect, diarrhea. They do not mention that most prescribed drugs also have the same side effect. The problem that I see here is the doctors writing on these websites have not read about MSM and do not inform their patients to stop whatever laxative they are already using to fight their constipation. If you are already taking anti-constipation medicine or any kind of over-the-counter laxative or stool softeners, Dr. Jacob, M.D., recommends to please stop using these agents at least one day before you start using MSM. It has been well reported that MSM will do better in relieving constipation without all the known side effects of the medications, laxatives, stool softeners and their high cost. As you will see and understand better in the "CONSTIPATION" section of this website. It is also important to start taking MSM at the smallest recommended dosage and increase slowly so your body gets used to it and does not go into a shock.
On this website, I often repeat the same reason or quote the same medical studies results. This is to make sure the readers will remember the association between the subject condition or disease at hand and MSM’s known benefits.
I also include a large amount of information gathered from reputable medical websites.
