MSM 120 capsules

I use supplements to help close the gap between modern nutrition levels in our food and the levels that were there when I was young. But, in my opinion, the supplement industry has both some of the highest integrity companies, and some of the lowest. So I try and give a detailed enough review to help you know the company and product better so you can determine for yourself whether or not you want to try this one out. This bottle comes entirely encased in plastic. Normally I don't like that but this time it kept the bottle from falling apart. Even though it came wrapped well, the bottle was cracked on the bottom and sides, enough that a hole had fallen out of the corner of the bottom - not quite large enough for tablets to fall out though. The bottle comes about 80% full, which is pretty good nowadays. If used as directed it will last 40 days to three months (120 tablets, taking them 1-3 times per day). The best by date on mine is Jan 2027. I detect no scent to the tablets, and I can't vouch for how they taste or how easy to swallow they are, since I am concerned about glass particles. I like my supplements to say organic, non-GMO, GMP-certified, 3rd-party tested, and made in the USA. This says non-GMO and manufactured by Anabolic Laboratories, which is in Colorado. I look into the supplement companies I use because I've come across so many questionable ones. Their anaboliclabs site is undergoing a scheduled maintenance, but it lists their phone number for immediate assistance, and has a catalog.anaboliclabs site which has their products and a lot of information. It appears they have been in business for over 100 years. Normally, not being able to use the product I'm reviewing would be a negative, but with all I've seen of the company, I am confident in their being established and reputable. I will chalk the broken bottle up to an unfortunate anomaly. I would just prefer to see none of the fillers and flow agents that many companies say they need to use, but the manufacturers of the highest quality supplements that I am aware of refuse to. It seems like a good price for 1-3 months' worth of product, especially if they still have the discounts available on the product page. Thank you for reading, I hope it was helpful.

I ordered capsules and received tablets. Otherwise, the order was fine.

I picked up these MSM tablets from Anabolic Labs mainly for joint support and some secondary skin benefits. Fortunately, my bottle wasn’t expired (unlike what several other reviewers mentioned), and the product seemed fresh and properly sealed. That said, after a few weeks of consistent use, I didn’t notice any substantial improvements that I couldn’t get from other supplements. MSM (methylsulfonylmethane) does have research backing its anti-inflammatory properties, and it can be helpful for joint stiffness or skin hydration—but in my case, the effects were minimal compared to alternatives I’ve tried. For example, a combo of glucosamine + chondroitin, or even collagen peptides with hyaluronic acid, has given me far more noticeable results in both joint comfort and skin appearance. Even standalone turmeric/curcumin supplements have done more for my inflammation than this did. The tablet size is manageable and there were no side effects, but the price-to-performance ratio just isn’t there for me. It’s not a bad supplement by any means—it just feels like an underwhelming one, especially when stacked against other tried-and-true options. If you’re already sold on MSM and want a single-ingredient formula, this might be worth trying. But if you're looking for the best bang for your buck in joint or skin support, there are better and more effective supplements out there.

Nice glass bottle and quantity for the price. I did some research on MSM and thought I'd give it a try since I have some old age aches and pains. Prescription drugs are not always the best product so I like to look for alternatives.

I think the purpose of this supplement is very sound as it should help alleviate some inflammation with joint support. Unfortunately, the bottle I received had a 'Best By' date of July 2024 and the bottle had a crack at the bottom.
