I don't know about humans, but I do know that MSM works on critters. Hurricane Cali is our AmStaff and at 4 months she was run over, literally, by two cars. Her pelvis was smashed flat (on x-rays it looked like an instant case of advanced hip dysplasia) and her one hind leg was broken in a couple of places. Her lungs were blood infused, her espheogus was smashed and all the skin under her chin was peeled off.

We got her to the vet fast enough for the shot to clear the lungs. Her throat was manually massaged back into a resemblance of normal. Her leg was set and we were told that she would be a complete cripple within a year or two.

Fast forward 5 years. She's typical AmStaff and jumps about 4' and runs and chases the Pitcur Hound until they are both ready to drop.

She gets vitamins (she also had ALL the skin problems that are typical with the bully breeds) and MSM. The vets are amazed!

An old timer electrician here whose income is dependent on
his hands had arthritis so bad he almost had to give up
his business. His hands would swell and he couldn't crawl
around anymore. He had exhausted his pharmaceutical
possibilities. Another old timer friend told him he had
completely gotten rid of his by soaking raisins in gin
(there was a certain brand recommended) and eating 9
raisins each day. The electrician finally broke down and
tried it and told me his arthritis went away after a month
of eating them, and he'd been taking them for six months
and had no further problem. His doctor was amazed. This
guy is really a normal good 'ol boy, so I have no reason
to doubt him. I am starting to get a little in my hands so
I thought I might try it. Sounds like the alcohol may be
helping to release some chemical in the fruit. I'm
allergic to shellfish, so I could never take glucosamine
or chondroitin anyway.--Sage
