Excellent article. Please read Sally K Norton‘s book Toxic which explains why DMSO heals so many conditions. Specifically page 248. Removing the root cause of illness which happens to be oxalates, promote healing throughout the body. It’s all about accumulation.
Dr Amandha Vollmer (yummy.doctor) published a book on the use of DMSO. In her book, are many recipes for using DMSO, both topically and internally. The book is easy to read and provides clear instructions on its use. You can find the book on Kindle and many other resources. Searching: Healing with DMSO by Amandha Vollmer.
On Amazon, look for 99.995% pure/pharmaceutical grade DMSO esp if you are going to use it internally. There are easy to apply roll-ons that are 99% pure and mixed with aloe vera gel. These are generally used for joint pain and inflammation. Do get a book like Vollmer's though and read it so you know the guidelines. All the best!
It is great that some people find it of benefit but when one looks into the extraction processing of dmso it doesnt seem like anything you would want to put in or on your body. Especially when there are so many herbs/plants growing that will support healing of body mind spirit .
I just read a counter-article by GeoffPain PHD, who strongly disadvized to use it. Some people just cannot think outside the chemicals box. Such a pity. I use herbal and homeopathic with great results.
You are spot on! Most people don't know about sulfur and its role in our bodies but they have heard about the benefits of eating broccoli, caulifower, cabbage, garlic and onions . . . all of which have a high sulfur content.
Agreed. If you don't want to put it in your body no matter how weak your argument against using a natural substance made by trees, then please resist it.
I have to admit - I’m am shocked to see DMSO being touted as the latest miracle approach. And while I’ll yield to AMD and others about the possibility of “medical” uses for it, I’d like to share the following.
1) I have up-close, personal experience with DMSO. I was one of the early people treated with it for interstitial cystitis (prior to full “approval” by FDA). It was a horrifying experience. Six weeks of having DMSO inserted into my bladder with a catheter … and having to hold it for 1.5 hours. It was the worst pain I’d ever experienced. And it DID NOT do anything towards solving the IC problems. (I later found out that was due to aspartame sensitivity, but that’s a different story.) [Ref: question 31]
2) Question 1 states that it started as a “liquid solvent.” That “DMSO was valued for its ability to dissolve almost any chemical dropped into it, making it useful as a degreaser, paint thinner, and antifreeze.”
**This statement alone should give people pause.**
3) Question 3 states that it passes through the skin so fast that you can taste it within 30 seconds. This is true. ANYTHING that passes through a naturally designed barrier that fast and acts as a carrier, should also give people PAUSE.
This is not a product to mess around with. Used any poisons (knowingly or unknowingly) recently? Any insecticides that got on your skin? That will get carried into the body with DMSO use.
I have more to share (had horses for years where DMSO really got its jump-start as an arthritis “treatment”), but will save it. There is another side to this product, and I think it does a dis-service to promote it in this manner.
I personally would love to know anything else you held back on sharing about DMSO. I'm a tad bit suspicious seeing the recent push for this from people I consider suspect in the MFM (e.g., Pierre Kory).
I don’t quite trust anybody who says DMSO can increase delivery of chemotherapy chemicals when chemotherapy is completely ineffective in 97% of cases – likewise when they mention ‘antiviral’.
I would never be without DMSO and buy it by the litre. I discovered it through Canadian naturopath Amandha Volmer and inspired by her use it in my own eye drops, take it orally, mixed with magnesium as a anti-inflammatory body spray (and for osteoarthritis), mixed with colloidal silver as a brilliant would dressing (completely healed toenail fungus and used for wounds generally healing is very fast and clean), and I put it into my own skincare formulas and face masks to deliver the nutrients deeply as inspired by Amandha Volmer. A powerful natural pain reliever can be made by utilizing DMSO’s properties a solvent by steeping cloves in it and using for dental and nerve pain. I have never experienced a single adverse affect. Watch out for dentists though: the fillings they put into your body can contain fluoride.
The fact no one has even heard of the healing powers of this natural medicine is testament to the corruption of the so-called healthcare (in truth ‘disease management’) system.
My father suffered from strokes and died before his time. When I learned that DMSO applied directly after a stroke can dissolve blood clots it made me want to cry.
Is there a way to reduce the odor DMSO causes? Does it fade after consistent use? I just started using DMSO, topically and orally, and my husband and kids say I smell weird. I don’t smell it myself, but hate to think others will think so too!
Sadly not that I know of and it's a common complaint. Some formulations containing DMSO mask it (there's a DMSO cream I think on Amazon with a rose scent). All I can think of is lessening the concentration but if you do that perhaps you lessen the benefits.
DMSO is used in most major league contact sports like football and even in college and high school football. A man I know who was a high school coach in the 1960s and 1970s always had a bottle of DMSO at practice and at game time. On the off chance, that people new to DMSO think its use is new. It is not.
1. How is DMSO diluted? Is it with water? ( I imagine it should be filtered water?)
RE: "It's crucial to note that these dosages should be determined by a healthcare professional, as improper use can lead to side effects or reduced efficacy."
2. This seems a bit of a conundrum as most doctors wouldn't prescribe it at all. How to get around this problem?
Most doctors have never heard about DMSO and most wouldn't know how to use it even if they knew about it. And no, it is very difficult to get a "side effect" from using DMSO . . . however there are lots of side effects from pharmaceutical drugs and I rarely read about people worrying about them and we can start with the now demonstrably dangerous Covid shots. Plus why would you want anything prescribed by a doctor? None of their offerings cure anything and are slow-acting toxins to the body as they damage the detox pathways.
It is highly doubtful you are allergic to sulfur however you may be allergic to sulfa drugs. They are basically horrible for the body as are all antibiotics.
I notice that although the book DMSO: Nature's Healer uses the word cure quite a bit and cites examples of cases cured - but this post does not contain the word cure or cured. We might ask why, but the answer is clear. We need only look at the list of "Conditions that DMSO might help with", from arthritis, to heart disease, to stroke, to thrombophlebitis - and many more.
How might we know if one of these diseases is cured? We simply cannot. Cured is not medically defined for ANY non-infectious disease.
Therefore, cured is not medically defined for any disease that can be cured by DMSO. If a case is cured - the cure cannot be detected, much less documented, much less proven, much less "proven to have been caused by DMSO."
Our medical systems have the perfect insurance against claims of cured, ensuring that "cured" is not defined and therefore cannot be proven. It's not hard to defined cured, and Morton Walker uses the word cured in the book. But there is no interest in defining cured medically. Denial is apparently, sufficient proof in so-called "scientific medicine."
I will venture to say that DMSO cured my husband's stroke injuries: the vertigo, headaches, nerve damage to the left arm, side of mouth, leg, and foot, confusion, and exhaustion all disappeared after applying 99% DMSO topically 3-4 times a day for 5 months.

I have been using DMSO for decades.
I’d love to know the specifics of how you use it, and to what effect. Also, I see that Amazon has many options — what should we look for exactly?

Dr Jacobs died, but his children still produce and sell his original formula, as far as I know? https://jacoblab.com/?v=0b3b97fa6688
This link is not working for me. Says ...."PAGE CANNOT BE FOUND"....
I clicked on Try again, and it did work. 👍
Yes, this time it worked for me. Thank you
Which one do you use?
It depends. I use 70% for topical pain, etc., and I use higher concentrations for nebulizing, even ingestion.
Thank you Timothy. Do you have a preferred brand/supplier?
https://jacoblab.com/?v=0b3b97fa6688
Can you re commend a specific brand/ type ? I know there are so many out there that have ingredients we don`t want in them .Thank you

Ok great, thanks so much.

How do you take it?
I rub 70% gel on skin for pain, and ingest 100% for various maladies.

It's basically sulfur the 3rd most common substance in your body. See my other comment
You are spot on! Most people don't know about sulfur and its role in our bodies but they have heard about the benefits of eating broccoli, caulifower, cabbage, garlic and onions . . . all of which have a high sulfur content.

found it ! It is a comment on an article by Midwestern Doctor, who propagates this sulfur med as well.
Propagates? You mean promotes, right? That is his right as it yours to disagree. Just in case this last bastion of free speech goes under attack.
No one here is advocating against the use of herbs or homeopathy -- in case you got confused.
Agreed. If you don't want to put it in your body no matter how weak your argument against using a natural substance made by trees, then please resist it.

Please make your own post about DMSO. Also, what questions are you referring to in your reply? Ref: question 31

This is great, thanks for the mention, and here is my DMSO post that you cited above: https://robertyoho.substack.com/p/307-dmso-is-a-harmless-natural-wonder?utm_source=publication-search
I would like to hear Unbekoming's (and anyone else) thoughts on this substack article-
https://medicinegirl.substack.com/p/disastrous-dmso
Yup, there are two sides to the DMSO story.
I had heard dmso is stinky so I use MSM (methylsulfonylmethane) instead. I add it to a lime water drink

make sure you are not allergic to sulfur like I am. Then this therapy can probably kill you - just like the hailed metformin almost killed me.

AMEN!
Can DMSO be mixed with chlorine dioxide solution (CDS) and ingested that way?
I was introduced to DMSO by a German friend a few years ago. It's been a staple in my medicine cabinet ever since.
