An affordable MSM supplement for joint pain with minor, multi-herbal anti-inflammatory additions.
The Solaray MSM 750 mg supplement centers around MSM, a sulfur compound widely used for its efficacy in reducing joint and muscle pain and inflammation, often praised by online reviewers and nutritionists for its role in connective tissue health. The product also features a blend of traditional anti-inflammatory herbs including Turmeric, Devil's Claw, Boswellia, and Cat's Claw. While these ingredients are beneficial, their individual dosages are notably small, suggesting they are more for a 'complex' appeal than providing substantial therapeutic effects on their own. Thus, its effectiveness primarily hinges on the MSM content.
- Provides a decent dose of MSM, effective for joint pain and inflammation
- Very affordable price per serving for MSM content
- Includes a variety of traditionally used anti-inflammatory herbs
- Dosages of supporting herbal ingredients (Turmeric, Devil's Claw, Boswellia, Cat's Claw) are too low to be therapeutically significant
- Overall efficacy relies almost entirely on MSM, not on the herbal blend
- Not ideal if seeking robust benefits from the individual herbal components
- None specific beyond general cautions for herbal supplements, such as potential interactions or sensitivities.

Categories
Boswellia 35.0
The 30mg of Boswellia gum extract (boswellic acid) is an extremely low dose. While present, it offers negligible impact for primary Boswellia benefits compared to standalone Boswellia supplements with much higher, standardized dosages.
Turmeric 30.0
With only 20mg of Turmeric root extract (curcumin), this dosage is far below what is considered therapeutically effective for Turmeric's anti-inflammatory properties. It contributes minimally to the Turmeric category's overall benefits.
Goals
Joint Health 85.0
MSM at 750mg is a well-regarded dose for reducing joint pain, stiffness, and inflammation, making this product highly effective for joint health. The small complex of other anti-inflammatory herbs, while minimally dosed, might offer some synergistic support, solidifying its role in comprehensive joint care.
Anti-Inflammatory Support 75.0
MSM is a potent anti-inflammatory agent that significantly contributes to reducing inflammation throughout the body. While the additional herbal ingredients are present in very small amounts and offer limited direct impact, the strength of MSM alone makes this a good option for general anti-inflammatory support.
General Health 60.0
MSM offers general anti-inflammatory and antioxidant benefits that contribute to overall cellular health and detoxification, indirectly supporting general well-being. However, the very low doses of additional herbs limit their contribution to broad systemic health support, making MSM the primary driver for this goal.
