The Miracle of MSM -- Book by Dr.  Stanley W. Jacob et al

There is a new Book about MSM that seems quite worth reading!

The book is entitled "The Miracle of MSM -- The Natural Solution for Pain," by Stanley W. Jacob, MD, Ronald M. Lawrence, MD, PhD, and Martin Zucker,  copyright 1999, published by G. P. Putnam's Sons, New York.

The ISBN is 0-399-14474-9.   Published price was originally $19.95, 272 pages.  That was the price on the jacket cover of the advance copy I received.  By the time it reached Amazon.com the price had been increased to $22.95.  It is possible that the jacket is being reprinted to change the publication price.

The discounted price at Amazon.com is $16.07.  There is nothing else like this available.  The information is well-worth the cost.

I got a copy of this book quite a bit earlier than the general public, partly so that I could write a review based on my own extensive knowledge and experience with MSM.

I have read this book.  It is great!  It is an excellent balance between testimonials and technical -- written by the two men who are the most basic on the chain of research and application of this remarkable substance.

Here is the book review I wrote for Amazon.com!


Karl Loren's Review

The Miracle of MSM : The Natural Solution for Pain
by Stanley W. Jacob, et al


Review by:  Karl Loren karl@karlloren.com Burbank, CA


An Excellent Blend of Testimonials and Technical


More and more health-oriented books are following the model by one of this book's authors, Martin Zucker. He is the successful author of two other health-oriented books. This Book is a blend of testimonials by real people followed by a medical doctor's technical explanation of how the body uses this substance as described in the testimonial.

Authors Jacob and Lawrence, between them, have more than 40 years of clinical experience using MSM with patients. Jacob holds many patents on this substance. There could be no better combination than these three authors to bring this organic sulfur substance to the public's attention.

I have used MSM, personally, for many years, as have many others I know. In some instances pain relief comes within minutes! If this hadn't happened with so many of my friends I could put it down to a fluke. But, MSM is no fluke!

From my own experience there is much more that MSM can do for you than is even written in this Book, but it appears to me that the authors are bending over backwards to avoid claims that are too dramatic.

As the authors point out, MSM is less toxic than water and, when you look for it, you'll find it is also far less expensive than many nutrients which do far less good.

The writing style is good, the data is expert and the subject is important.

Excellent and exciting
A ubiquitous natural substance available without a prescription. Well documented and well written. The only book on M.S.M. Helps with arthritis, allergies and many more conditions. Safe to use. The book is very comprehensive, worth the price.

On February 15, 1999, I got the following message from one of the authors of the Book, Martin Zucker.

Dear Mr. Loren:

Thank you for your nice words regarding the MSM book in general and for those kind words about my role.

You seemed to have hit it right on the nail. that indeed is how I like to present this kind of material -- a blend of science and real life stories that people can relate to. 

For sure, MSM is a promising supplement and I am confident that many more interesting applications will surely emerge.  Hopefully the book will stir interest in research however, as you probably well know, that is always a problem with non-patentable supplements.

Best wishes,

Martin Zucker


Dear Martin,

You are very welcome.
You may also give these comments to anyone else you wish.
As an author on health subjects, and a researcher about MSM, I knew that my view of any book on MSM would be keen, indeed.
In this area we often have nothing more to go on than testimonials, and they may well be true and valid.  But, by themselves, they just don't carry the day.
And, the scientific stuff is often of too little interest.
So, before I had read the book I was rather expecting too much technical -- only looking at the two doctors as authors.
Then, when I glanced through the book I found, at first, only testimonials, and thought that this, too, was not enough.
So, I was very pleasantly surprised when I found the "blend."
Now that I have your ear, or eye, let me ask you a question.
I found no where in the book that you covered what I consider one of the primary actions of MSM.  I alluded to that in my review.
I refer to its role in cell detoxification.
My experience has been that when a person takes MSM in modestly large doses -- 5 to 6 grams per day -- they will often have what appears to be a "skin rash" but is actually toxins escaping the body through the skin.  I view this role as one of the most important for MSM.  Since I take many capsules and tablets, etc., when I add something new I always look for what changes.  When I added MSM, personally, I went through many months of very dramatic skin "rash."  Since I was sure I knew what it was, I never decreased the dosage.  I'm sure that with a lower dosage the detoxification would be much less noticeable.
If a person is not expecting this, and it happens, then he or she might be very worried, quit using it, or whatever.
I would be delighted to know whether you had heard of such activity.
My best regards to your future work.
