Company Overview
OptiMSM is distilled in a four-stage process for the purest MSM on the market.
Bergstrom Nutrition is a family-owned nutrition ingredient company built on the vision and values of its founder, George Bergstrom III. Based in Vancouver, Washington (near Portland, Oregon), Bergstrom Nutrition operates the world's only facility solely dedicated to production of a proprietary form of methylsulfonylmethane, MSM.
OptiMSM® exceeds industry standards for optimal purity and consistency, and is the only MSM backed by U.S. published clinical research. Bergstrom, formerly known as Cardinal Nutrition, pioneered the use of MSM for human consumption in 1989. Today, consumers in more than 18 countries purchase hundreds of different retail products containing Bergstrom’s proprietary ingredients.
Each phase of MSM production is carefully monitored for quality and consistency.
Our exclusive products are a result of years of research and development performed by the founding engineers and scientists. Bergstrom has grown by investing in infrastructure and capabilities in advance of market needs: increased factory capacity, testing methodology, technical support, brand marketing, lean manufacturing and cGMP compliance have been key building blocks for us and our customers long before they were common in the marketplace.
We are a customer-focused organization dedicated to continuous improvement, uncompromising quality and service second to none. Bergstrom is also a committed member of the community, donating employee volunteer time and company resources to a number of important causes focused primarily on children’s nutrition.
