Why Organic Sulfur Is a Must

Learn More About Why  & How Sulfur Works In the Body

---

 

 

For anyone over 25, having access to increased Sulfur becomes a key piece of the health, wellness & appearance puzzle as the body ages.

At Happy Body, our entire team uses our products daily, as do our families, friends and even our pets.

We truly believe in what Sulfur/MSM does, and what it provides to the body. It’s a wondrous mineral.

And yes, we’re biased, but if you look at our customer reviews and feedback you will see we’re not the only ones.

🟦 Very few supplements have that type of impacts of Organic Sulfur/pure MSM

So with that, let’s dive deeper into why Organic Sulfur is so vital for optimal health, wellness & appearance.

👇

 1. What Is Organic Sulfur?

Organic Sulfur/Sulphur, (aka pure MSM), is the fully bio-active form of the non-metallic mineral Sulfur.

MSM (Methyl / Sulfonyl / Methane) is a naturally occurring chemical compound with the formula of (CH3)2SO2.

That basically means it’s made up of some carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and a lot of Sulfur atoms.

Because MSM contains so much bioactive Sulfur it is also known as an “organo-sulfur compound”.

2. Why Is Organic Sulfur So Important?

Most people talk about calcium, iron or magnesium, but most don’t actually realize that Organic Sulfur is – as if not more – important.

🟦 Organic Sulfur is the 3rd MOST abundant mineral in the body for a reason! Your body needs a continual supply of it to live and function well.

3. How Do We Get Organic Sulfur?

We’re so glad you asked!

Organic Sulfur is actually part of a group of trace minerals and nutrients that are referred to as “essential”.

“Essential” means you can’t live without them.

But… “essential” also means you can’t just make them in your body. You need to get them from external sources.

🟦 Sulfur is an essential mineral, and is ideally passed to us from our food, and the Sulfur in our food ultimately comes from our soil from the Sulfur cycle

---

What’s The “Sulfur Cycle”

The Sulfur cycle is how nature works to provide Sulfur to all living things:

1. Sulfur compounds are evaporated from ocean water into clouds where sunlight helps convert it to fully bio-active MSM (chemical formula (CH3)2SO2)

2. MSM is then transferred to our soil via rain water, which is then absorbed by plants/crops/grass.

3. Once we harvest and eat the food, the Organic Sulfur (MSM) is then digested and passed into our bodies.

But There’s a Serious Issue With Food Sources

Getting enough Organic Sulfur from food today is basically like squeezing blood from a stone.

That’s because our precious, life-giving soil is has been seriously damaged over the last century, and has been striped of much of its nutritional and essential mineral base.

Studies show that Organic Sulfur availability in much of our commercial soil (and therefore our food) has dropped significantly.

This’s not just one study, it’s multiple long term studies from both university and governmental organizations alike.

And ‘yes’ even if you eat organic foods primarily, you are still likely deficient.

In fact, the USDA has actually known about these issues for many years.

There are studies as far back as 100+ years ago that begin to map the decline of soil-based minerals.

The chart shown below is based on data from a study started in 1963 which looked at the soil-mineral content of select crops over a 30+ year period.

Much of the original data comes from the work of John D. Hamaker (1914–1994), who was an mechanical engineer, ecologist, agronomist and science writer in the fields of soil regeneration.

What was found in the data was a clear drop in mineral values in plants right across the board.

The drop was both stark, and in certain views, coincides pretty clearly with the acceleration of modern, industrial farming methods.

---

Now to be fair, data after 2016 is not as readily available,  but the general conclusions and trends are still pretty clear.

The strangest thing about this, is that not many people discuss this, but this is a serious issue that impacts all of our health over the long term.

It could also be one of the major driving factors behind many of the increases we’re seeing in a lot of chronic diseases today.

MOST People Are Very Deficient In Sulfur

🟦“Sulfur deficiency is real. A large segment of the population appears to be Sulfur deficient.” 

Dr. Marcel E Nimni. MD.

Sources: Nimni ME, Han B, Cordoba F. Are we getting enough sulfur in our diet? Nutrition & Metabolism. 2007;4:24. doi:10.1186/1743-7075-4-24.

---

So What’s Behind This Decline?

Many scientists studying this situation believe the root cause may be a combination of factors, but mainly related to modern farming methods specifically:

• Intensive commercial farming that does not allow for proper soil-nutrient recovery.
• Overuse of chemical fertilizers that can block the uptake of Sulfur into crop roots.
• Overuse of chemical pesticides that damage the precious soil-mineral balance.
• Changes in climate and CO2 content in the atmosphere.

---

And Then Food Processing Just Removes The Rest…

Added processing and cooking of food have been shown to reduce any remaining Sulfur to very minimal amounts compared to food from the past.

---

What Happens When Consistently Low in Sulfur?

Organic Sulfur deficiency has been clinically linked to a variety of chronic issues as we move past the age of 40.

The most common issues being chronic pain and high rates of chronic inflammation.

But many people also suffer with:

• Chronic fatigue
• Chronic allergies
• Autoimmune conditions (R/A, Lupus etc)
• Digestive issues
• High body toxicity & poor general wellness
• Hair can also begin to rapidly thin, and the skin becomes tougher, rougher and less elastic. Complexion also takes a hit.

So That Leaves Us With Supplementation

The only real way to get access to adequate pure Sulfur consistently today is via supplementation.

Again, MSM is the world’s best source for Organic Sulfur, as MSM is 34% pure Sulfur by weight.

But remember, not all MSM is the same.

Organic Sulfur Versus Std. MSM

1. Most commercially available MSM is NOT the same as Organic Sulfur in terms of:

• Overall quality.
• Dose/potency.
• The use of additives & fillers.
• Absorption / bio-availability rates.

2. Most MSM typically sold in stores are sold as capsules, big tablets, or low quality powders.

• These cheaper formats are not pure, and most utilize anti-clumping, binding and anti-flow agents/additives which can greatly hamper absorption.
• As well, these forms of MSM are lower dose formats making them less impactful and typically much more expensive dose-for-dose.

Based on Avg. Amounts of MSM Per Dose/Serving From Other Leading Brands.

 

🟦 Happy Body Organic Sulfur typically provides between 500% –  2000% more MSM, dose for dose then capsules and typical joint formulations.

The Benefits of Sulfur

Our goal here is to simplify the science and theory around how Sulfur is thought to work in the body to achieve its impacts and results.

Below are what we consider to be the most common, clinically-defined benefits that are experienced when using high-dose, pure Organic Sulfur daily.

---

It’s a Better Way To Manage Pain

 

When you take Organic Sulfur daily, it helps combat pain transmission in the body.

• Organic Sulfur helps the body dampen transmission of pain impulses on nerve cells.
• This property is what gives Organic Sulfur its unique analgesic-like properties.

---

Limits Chronic Inflammation

 

🟦 Chronic inflammation is an insidious issue, & is the root cause of almost all chronic disease.

• Many people suffer with chronic inflammation – in part – due to lack of Sulfur.
• The reason for this is that Organic Sulfur directly helps one of the main causes of chronic inflammation – cellular swelling.
• Unlike medicine that just represses enzymes or turns off nerves – Organic Sulfur helps optimize the function of your body’s cell membranes which directly control cellular swelling and inflammation at the cellular level.

---

How Sulfur Helps Combat Chronic Inflammation

One of the main causes of chronic inflammation is swelling at a cellular level.

When millions of cells are swollen you get chronic inflammation.

The image below illustrates the basic difference between a swollen, unhealthy cell, and a regular sized, healthy, fully functional cell.

In the swollen cell, you see a thicker cellular membrane surrounding the perimeter of the cell.

The cell membranes are absolutely vital for proper cell function.

The cell membrane is basically a “smart wall” that lets vital compounds in and out of the cell.

Stuff It Let’s In…

• Nutrients
• Oxygen
• Proteins

Stuff It Pushes Out…

• Wastes
• Toxins
• Pathogens

---

When Low in Sulfur, Cell Membranes Don’t Work Well

Without enough Sulfur in the body, your cell membranes lose proper sensitivity, get thicker, more leathery and lose proper function.

As a result, inflammatory agents, wastes toxins, lactic acids and other waste fluids get “locked up” in the cell creating actual swelling.

This “locked up” state leads to poor cellular health / function and the spread of chronic, low-grade inflammation throughout the body.

---

Close Up of The Cellular Membrane

---

But as soon as you start adding more Sulfur to your body, cell membranes rapidly start to ‘open up’ and become softer and more permeable.

This simple action creates a number of amazing benefits for the body.

In this case, cells are no able to quickly eject:

• Wastes
• Fluids
• Toxins & lactic acids

This results in vastly improved cellular health, and a reduction of cellular swelling across the body, directly impacting chronic inflammation in the system.

---

Sulfur Quickly Allows Cells To Eject Wastes

Cells Can Then Shrink Back Down To More Optimal Size

Properly functioning cell membranes helps the cells to reduce size, swelling and overall body inflammation and resulting pain.

Breathe New Life Into Old, Worn, Aching Joints

 

• Almost 50% of your body’s Sulfur supplies are used specifically for joints, ligaments, cartilage, muscles and the connective tissue that holds it all together.
• With age, most see natural decreases in Sulfur stores which can result in serious joint breakdown, constant aches and poor mobility.
• Simply increasing pure Organic Sulfur access can help replenish the body with the vital Sulfur required to help repair and restore the structural and connective tissues around aching, creaky joints.
• Many people can see these impacts in just weeks of starting use (2-4 weeks of consistent use).

Low Sulfur = Poor Joint Health & Pain

Combats Chronic Fatigue & Brain Fog

• Organic Sulfur promotes increased oxygen and nutrient transport, through it’s action on cell membranes.
• That means uptake of oxygen & nutrients into cells happens with much greater ease, versus for those with inadequate Sulfur levels.
• This action helps improve oxygen transfer, directly combating fatigue and helps provide increased focus and mental clarity as oxygen helps ignite more mitochondrial activity.

Powerful Detoxification

Detoxification is one of the biggest benefits of taking Sulfur daily.

In today’s world we desperately need this type of daily support.

Each hour of the day, we’re exposed to many, serious, harmful toxins and heavy-metals from our food, water, various products and our overall environment.

🟦 Many people don’t realize the health-robbing impacts of toxic build up in the system.

 

---

Toxins Build Up In Cells & Erode Health & Appearance

Again, the toxins we’re exposed to daily build up in cells, especially those with poorly functioning cellular membranes.

This leads to a continual decrease in cell, tissue and organ function, helping to ignite many potential conditions, health issues and appearance issues.

Binds To Dangerous Heavy Metals

Organic Sulfur molecules can actually bind with certain dangerous heavy metals like lead and mercury. Once it combines with them, they become water soluble and inert, allowing the body to more easily dispose of them.

Sulfur is Vital For Glutathione Production

• Glutathione (pronounced: “Glu / Ta / Thi / Own”), is the body’s master antioxidant and is the main detoxification tool for the body and liver.
• Glutathione is vital for proper immune system function and is also the body’s main free-radical fighter.
• Glutathione is held together exclusively from Sulfur-based bonds, called ‘disulfide bonds’.

When low in Sulfur, the body can struggle to produce enough Glutathione, but it has been clinically shown that increasing Organic Sulfur can help the body increase natural Glutathione production.

This in turn helps to better detoxify the liver, and helps to strengthen the overall immune system.

Helps Many Common Digestive Issues

Daily use of Organic Sulfur helps constipation, & combats Leaky Gut & Candida issues.

Why?

Because the mucosal lining that coats the digestive tract is made primarily from Sulfur.

• Organic Sulfur helps the body address gaps in the mucosal-lining of the digestive tract, optimizing digestion and helping combat leaky gut, and candida overgrowth.
• Organic Sulfur also helps add flexibility and smoothness to the walls of the colon helping many ease constipation issues.
• Increasing Sulfur also helps the system increase and optimize the production of many vital enzymes and amino acids that aid in overall digestive health, and improved PH balance.

Helps Improves Appearance From The Inside ⇒ Out

 

Organic Sulfur is actually known as the ‘beauty mineral’ for its significant impacts on appearance.

 

Specifically:

• Organic Sulfur helps the body increase production of Sulfur-dependent Keratin and Cysteine helping yield thicker, softer hair, and thicker, harder, faster-growing, clearer nails with in weeks of use.
• Sulfur helps support increased production of Sulfur-dependent Collagen promoting increased softness, tightness and complexion of the skin.
• MSM/Sulfur can also be very impactful for acne, blotchiness, and improving scar tissue (externally and internally).
• Sulfur also helps the body reduce inflammation and detoxify skin cells supporting a healthier complexion and increased moisturization.

---

Sulfur & Skin Health

• Low Sulfur leads to decreased Collagen and weakened Collagen fibers that support skin elasticity and smoothness.
• The lack of Sulfur also leads to poor complexion from increased inflammation and reduced skin cell function.

🟦 Increased Sulfur Helps Boost Collagen, Reduce Inflammation & Improve Skin Cell Function

---

Sulfur &  Hair / Nail Health

• Low Sulfur can lead to low Keratin production, which is yet another Sulfur-dependent protein
• Keratin is directly responsible for hair and nail health and appearance.
• When low in Keratin, the hair can thin, become brittle, dull and dry.
• Nails can also become thin, weak and brittle.
• Adding Sulfur can help correct these problems by balance and optimizing Keratin production

Optimizes Production of Over 140 Vital Compounds

 

• The body has over 140 Sulfur-dependent amino acids, enzymes, proteins and antioxidants including: Glutathione, Collagen, Keratin,  Cysteine, & Methionine.
• Sulfur helps the body optimize production of these key compounds by providing critical disulfide bonds/bridges that allow the body to create more complex and specialized compounds.
• Sulfur also promotes increased absorption and utilization of vitamins (such as C, B ,D,K) and other nutrients via the activation of the cell membranes.
