| Philippa “Phil”, 57 | |
 Philippa “Phil” is looking forward to turning 60. That may seem unusual, but she is excited for a good reason. She’s already set multiple world records in track and field sports in the 50-54 and 55-59 age brackets, and she’s eager to hit the next category.“Track and field is what I love,” she says. Phil has been taking OptiMSM for five years. She says it helps ease the wear-and-tear her body has experienced over time. “Basically, I’m taking it for inflammation,” she says. “I’ve had my share of injuries. Part of it is my knees. In track and field, they come into play in every event you’re doing.” Inflammation in her knees could have spelled the end of her highly successful career. “Flexibility is so important. If you have inflammation in your knees, you lose flexibility. It feels like you have a brace on,” she says. Phil says that purity and effectiveness are the two most important things she looks for in a nutritional supplement. “As athletes, we have to be very careful of what we take,” she says. “OptiMSM is 99 percent pure, and that’s what I’m looking for.” During a break from her track and field training, she stopped taking OptiMSM and noticed a difference. Her knees would swell, making it difficult to get up in the morning. “So now I’m back on my MSM and I’m a lot happier,” she says. |
