DMSO: Dimethylsulfoxide
Nature's Healer
DMSO is a virtually odorless, clear liquid derived from lignin, a complex polymer which is the chief constituent of wood other than carbohydrates.
DMSO was first synthesized in 1866 by a Russian scientist but it wasn’t till the early 60’s that some serious work and medical breakthroughs were reached. However, the pharmaceutical industry and politicians have demonized DMSO for many years for obvious reasons, persecuting physicians despite them achieving amazing results with DMSO. Today, DMSO is widely available worldwide and is used by millions of people for a whole host of conditions!
It has a very wide range of applications including:
|
Burns |
Hemorrhagic Strokes |
Spinal cord injury |
|
Viral infection |
Bacterial infection |
Shingles |
|
Cancer |
STDs |
Toothache |
|
Sports injuries |
Gum disease |
Extractions |
|
Inflammatory conditions |
Infectious diseases |
Diabetic Neuropathy |
DO’s and DON’TS
DMSO ON THE SKIN (TOPICALLY)
*Even full strength DMSO can be used below the waist, but be careful about a too strong solution above 70% above the waist. The upper body seems to be more sensitive to strong applications and although it is not dangerous, the worst that could happen is a redness and itchiness, lasting a few days.
*People with a very fair skin and light hair color seems to be even more sensitive to a strong DMSO solution. It is far better to start with a weak solution – it works just as well, just a bit slower.
*Never use the wrapping technique above the waist.
*When applying DMSO to the skin, make sure the area is clean and free of, for example mosquito repellent containing DEET. Remember, DMSO is a transporter and will take anything on the skin at the area of application, into the body!
*DMSO is perfectly safe to use on babies, small children and animals, but in diluted forms only.
*It is not recommended to use DMSO internally when pregnant, however I have found DMSO can very safely be used topically without harm to mother or baby.
TAKING DMSO ORALLY
*Always drink DMSO in about 1/2 cup (4 oz or 110ml) of juice or water – NEVER take it neat.
*Only take DMSO as recommended! More will not be better or do the work quicker!
GENERAL
You may notice a strange odour emanating from anyone taking DMSO. Personally, I do not think it is a bad odour, just difficult to place. The odour is a combination of too much garlic and seafood. I am experimenting at the moment to see whether Spirulina, with a high chlorophyll content, will dampen the smell. Will report on this when I have an answer!
