ActivMSM, the first GRAS designated form of MSM, enters the market

Vancouver, Washington. (July 15, 2008): TandemRain Innovations recently announced the availability of ActivMSM™, the first and only GRAS-designated MSM product.  ActivMSM, a proprietary form of MSM (methylsulfonylmethane), has been granted GRAS (Generally Recognized as Safe) designation for food and beverage formulations.

TandemRain Innovations, the only marketer of ActivMSM, will work with companies interested in this proprietary new offering, helping them to develop ActivMSM into exclusive formulations for functional foods and beverages.  ActivMSM offers numerous benefits as an added ingredient to food products such as yogurt, yogurt drinks and smoothies, nutrition bars, sports drinks, and other beverages. As a functional ingredient, ActivMSM is odorless, dissolves rapidly in liquids, and does not affect color or clarity of beverages and is stable at high temperatures.

ActivMSM is manufactured in a dedicated GMP facility and undergoes rigorous third party testing to ensure the highest level of purity and consistency.  TandemRain Innovations introduced the company’s initial line of products with ActivMSM at the IFT Conference, June 28. 

ActivMSM is produced exclusively for TandemRain Innovations, Inc.

ABOUT MSM
A long-recognized joint health nutrient, MSM has been clinically shown to reduce inflammation and protect articular cartilage, and has gained wider acceptance for active individuals of all ages who want to remain active as they age.  Since joint pain continues to be one of the most reported health complaints across multiple demographics, the demand for MSM is expected to grow.  By formulating MSM into foods and beverages, companies can now provide consumers with long-term health benefits of MSM without the inconvenience of taking multiple pills.
