Water retention and changes in urination frequency due to oral ingestion of DMSO

I'm 35 years old, I take DMSO orally since a couple of months ago. The reason was to increase supplement absorption, for health purposes such as anti-inflammation.
I was taking about 4 drops of 99.9% DMSO in 350-400ml of distilled water twice a day on an empty stomach, in the morning and before bed. I've stopped now, but I sometimes mixed it with supplements.
In addition, I routinely use supplements such as methylene blue, NMN, alpha-lipoic acid, spermidine, CoQ10, resveratrol, omega-3, magnesium, GABA, glycine, and melatonin—mainly those that support mitochondrial function and provide antioxidant benefits.

However, my body has recently started showing signs of water retention. Since I don't have a scale at home, I always weigh myself at the gym in the early afternoon or evening, and my weight has increased by 3-4 kg.Caffeine and potassium-rich teas, which used to have an immediate diuretic effect on me, no longer work as quickly. I also suspected kidney failure and heart failure, but the blood tests showed no abnormalities.However, for some reason, I don't really notice much edema in my body. Since I have a job that requires standing, I feel my legs are slightly swollen after work, but there's no noticeable edema.

I don't have any problems going about my daily life, but the pace at which fluids are expelled as urine is slow, and I wake up 2-3 times during the night to use the bathroom. Each time, I urinate the maximum capacity my bladder can hold. This happens every 3-4 hours. It might also be related to the fact that I was dependent on Ketamine, marijuana, Kratom for several months and was taking high doses every night.
It's been 4 days since I stopped ingesting DMSO, and my symptoms haven't gone away. Since I'm continuing to apply it for dental treatment, I can't say I've completely discontinued use, but I have stopped oral intake. After doing some research, I heard that DMSO can sometimes cause fluid retention. Does anyone have similar experiences from DMSO intake, or have you heard about such cases?

Hi GertJr,

Hydrocodone does nothing for me either and it causes constipation in many people.

If ibuprofen is helpful for the pain, I think you will like the naproxen lotion and it should be useful post TKR also. Make a shot glass up of the naproxen lotion or use ibuprofen soft gels if you prefer, but either way this lotion is easier on your body. Some people find a slightly better effect from Naproxen over Ibuprofen.

Thanks, Art. That's what I thought. I need to insist on another scan. BTW, last night I was in such pain that I took a hydrocodone that I had from the original surgery (I only took one then, so have plenty left). It did nothing for my pain. I finally took an ibuprofen and it helped. I notice with hydrocodone that all it does is agitate me, I can't sleep when I take it and it does nothing for the pain (which is why I didn't take them). If I have TKR, what about the pain then? They always give tramadol or hydrocodone and neither of them does squat for me. Tylenol3 helps, but I haven't had that in over 15 years. I rarely take pain meds.

I haven't had an experience with CDS IV, but wondered if you had considered prolozone therapy, which is a non-surgical treatment for knee pain that involves injecting a mixture of ozone, oxygen, vitamins, minerals, and homeopathic agents into the affected joint to stimulate tissue repair and regeneration. Some chiropractors have this treatment, people who practice sports medicine, functional medical doctors, etc.

Hi again, GertJr,

I forgot to mention, that the "movement in the joint" doesn't sound normal and warrants another scan of the knee.

The Naproxen gel avoids stomach damage from NSAIDS.

My friends who have had TKR had very good results and said they wish they hadn't waited to have it done.

Hi GertJr,

I have no opinion on the injection because I have never used chlorine dioxide.

What can add to the healing potential of borax lotion and melatonin lotion is mag oil which is available as a spray on Amazon. All three should be useful for a torn meniscus to heal if it hasn't. For more pain relief, you can test Naproxen lotion. Here is how to make it :

You can test naproxen lotion by filling a shot glass 3/4 full with body lotion. Take 4 naproxen soft gel capsules and poke a hole in the end of each capsule with a large needle. Squeeze the punctured soft gel's liquid into the lotion in the shot glass. Stir the lotion very, very well with something like a coffee stir stick until the naproxen is well blended into the lotion. Apply the lotion all the way around the knee and see if that offers enough pain relief. Cover the naproxen lotion with a jar lid or small saucer in between uses. Naproxen lotion is only for pain relief, not healing. The other three are for longer term healing with daily application.

On the outside chance that this is a nerve related issue, in addition to the knee applications, apply the melatonin lotion and mag oil to your lower spine, from the bottom of the tail bone up about 10 inches. Apply to the lower spine whenever applying to the knee. If that extra step adds more relief, there may be a nerve component to the knee pain and that will take time to heal with daily applications to both the lower spine and knee.

If application to the lower spine adds relief to the knee pain, icing that lower spine area can help speed the healing process.

As always, get your doctor's approval and supervision for all of the above in order to be as safe as possible and to be sure it will be compatible with any meds you are taking.

Let us know if this is helpful for you.

I recently read of a man in Asia (sorry, lost the link) who injected the cds. He made it with sterile saline (like you buy for contacts) instead of distilled water. He didn't say how much he injected, but claimed that his knee was back to 100% after the third injection. I'd try this for sure if I had an idea of the dose. If I don't get pain relief soon, I may just give it a go regardless (take the time to make the cds first, so a few days to really think about it). Start with 1cc and see what happens. I drink it anyway with no adverse effects and figure it would absorb into the tissues, do it's thing, and then be metabolized. I'd sure like Art and others opinions on this.

I used it full strength and put it on a brand new toothbrush to help get it inside my sore tooth. I brushed and then spit but didn't rinse. DMSO tastes truly vial but the pain in my tooth superseded my distaste. I tried to gargle first but kept gagging so this was a better solution for me. I've used it twice so far and my tooth pain is better by about 75%. I will continue to see how it goes.

It is definitely good to be extremely careful when applying it in general. It is a solvent with a high potential for cell penetration.

Personally, I try 99.9% and dilute it to 70 or 50%, or less. I also use it internally, in combination with orange juice. My initial problem is neuropathy in my feet, cramps, and chronic inflammationcaused by lyme neuroborreliosis. It's a long road, nothing happens quickly, and it affects everyone differently. For example, I am not bothered by the smell of garlic or oysters at all, even in the highest concentration. I don't want to see antibiotics for inflammation; I treat it naturally.

Asthma
Posted by Art (California) on 08/08/2025 2770 posts

Hi Mark,

In case you don't get the answer to your question, I have another idea for you to consider for the asthma, Grape Seed Proanthocyanidin Extract (GSPE). In animal models of asthma, GSPE has shown the ability to to reduce airway inflammation through its potent antioxidant effects as well as its anti inflammatory effects.

Here is a link to a typical animal study utilizing GSPE for asthma :

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22836658/

Here are two relevant quotes from the study :

' GSPE effectively suppressed inflammation in both acute and chronic mouse models of asthma, suggesting a potential role of GSPE as a therapeutic agent for asthma. '

' Compared to untreated asthmatic mice, mice treated with GSPE showed significantly reduced AHR (airway hyperresponsiveness), decreased inflammatory cells in the BAL fluid, reduced lung inflammation, and decreased IL-4, IL-5, IL-13, and eotaxin-1 expression in both acute and chronic asthma models. Moreover, airway subepithelial fibrosis was reduced in the lung tissue of GSPE-treated chronic asthmatic mice compared to untreated asthmatic mice. Reduced to oxidized glutathione (GSH/GSSG) ratio was increased after GSPE treatment in acute asthmatic lung tissue. '

Here is a link to another typical animal model study of asthma and GSPE :

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0968432812001370?via=ihub

Here is a relevant quote from the study :

' Natural plant products offer promising alternatives for the development of effective and safe treatments. Grape seed extract (GSE) is one such phytochemical supplement that has been shown to have potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. Thus, the present study aimed to investigate the effect of GSE to suppress lung parenchyma pathology and inflammation in ovalbumin-induced murine asthma model. Ovalbumin exposure was associated with many pathological and morphometric alterations in the lungs of asthmatic mice. The alterations involved alveolar size reduction, alveolar wall thickening, cellular infiltration and blood capillary congestion, as well as significant increase in the number of type II pneumocytes and lamellar bodies. However, GSE significantly ameliorated of the pathological changes of ovalbumin-induced asthma. The results support the possibility of GSE as an effective, safe anti-inflammatory dietary supplement to attenuate the pathogenicity of asthma. '

When you look at multiple studies of GSPE as it relates to the lungs and the multiple methods of action of GSPE in the lungs, it becomes clear that GSPE should also be beneficial for people with COPD! The following human study using GSPE in current and former smokers tends to confirm that GSPE should also be quite useful for COPD :

https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11641731/

Here are some relevant quotes from the human study :

' Grape seed procyanidin extract (GSE) is widely used to promote cardiovascular health and has purported anti-inflammatory properties. Chronic inflammation in the lungs caused by environmental toxins such as tobacco smoking plays a pivotal role in lung cancer development. '

' Furthermore, post-LP-treatment BAL fluids significantly reduced migration/invasion of various human lung neoplastic cells in vitro. Our findings support the anti-inflammatory effects of GSE/LP in the lung microenvironment and its potential utility for reducing cancerizing forces, as well as driving forces for other common respiratory diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and asthma, in the lungs of heavy former and active smokers. '

Another point of consideration with COPD is lung fibrosis or pulmonary fibrosis, which is a scarring of the lung tissue that can sometimes appear alongside of COPD or asthma. This fibrosis results in lungs that can no longer function properly or optimally because of all of the scar tissue. The following animal study suggests that GSPE may be beneficial for pulmonary fibrosis :

https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10510488/

Here is a relevant quote from the study :

' In rats, oral administration of N-succinyl chitosan-coated liposomes containing grape seed extract at the 400 mg/kg dose ameliorates bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis. '

When you combine the above information and then include the fact that GSPE not only has a good safety profile, but also has potential benefit in other health issues, it seems like it is worthy of your consideration as part of a treatment plan for asthma/COPD. You can do more, but GSPE is a great starting point. I use the following product at the suggested label dosing of 1200 mg/day for general health :

https://www.amazon.com/Carlyle-Grape-Extract-Equivalent-Capsules/dp/B07G7K522Q/ref=sr_1_9?crid=BSK7L8PSHT1W&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.OI2JJ_qdQkix9EUpJbyN3bpLStY0jnxBHsdcxN6_nZFM3zoweB_kZitnK-PqeqTWZMXgqFuzGW1gQPBPtWpmcd4ehsUMt4KxFEwg4KtI0l27T8An5g6NBOaaWUpXuMAERiHhbolcRfffy-yyytzS0FhgO9I0h6L057z-16QtkzoMqh-1HwZ35caarc_n1w71mSkWXteJDKYT_rA1kAoIu_ySeXbiKmZCZYRWrWxQoBE1wtj89sQHjFhpUX78ro20IlFFNkHE5zIeUOZUY56ud7OAmDjjBI8qaswcEu52Br8.urqzQzok3zNBlEL82fIRYWakqUJLpN6bM23WUNseWpQ&dib_tag=se&keywords=grape+seed+extract+liposome&qid=1754683550&sprefix=grape+seed+extract+liposome,aps,171&sr=8-9

WARNING

You will absolutely have to get your doctor's approval and supervision in order to make sure that GSPE will be safe for you to take and also be compatible with all other medications you may be taking!

DMSO: My Multi-Purpose Miracle Liquid

Hi Peter! So, I've been slathering DMSO ( I bought on my skin and dabbing it in my eyes twice a day like it's some kind of mystical elixir—because apparently, I'm now part of the "glow like a firefly, see like a hawk" club. Our journey together began eight months ago when I decided to test gravity mid-hike and turned my knee into abstract art. DMSO swooped in like a biochemical superhero, playing the role of "I'm not a doctor, but I play one in my bathroom."

But wait—there's more! My six rescue dogs (yes, six… I collect needy furballs like they're Pokémon) also get the DMSO treatment when they're feeling off. I adjust the concentration -100%, 70%-50% for me and 70% 50% for my furry kids.

Oh, and sometimes I'll swirl a drop in my mouth like a weird, medicinal wine tasting when my tooth is acting up. Speaking of weird, my wobbly tooth has been getting the DMSO homemade toothpaste (50%) treatment, and so far, it's hanging on like a determined koala. Is it healing, or just clinging out of spite? Science may never know. I believe in re-minerizing my tooth (i had a root canal done long time ago) and refuse to part with it and replace it with a fake one.

The best part? No funky garlic smell—which, according to the internet, makes me either lucky or a mutant. Also, zero side effects, unless you count my dogs judging me hard every time I uncap the bottle. ("Here she comes with the weird liquid again…")

DISCLAIMER: This is my personal DMSO fanfic—not medical advice. Do your research (I read four books and scoured the internet. Yes - you can call me a nerd), proceed when you are comfortable and have trust with DMSO (my swiss army knife.)Knowledge, intention and belief are needed when I try something new.

Bluenite, ahoj. I have used DMSO. For skin, I am impressed with its ability to heal old scars. Also, I recently developed what may have been a cellulitis patch on my arm. Healed quickly. Also helps with postherpectic neuralgia. I have used it internally for a short time, but did not notice any effects.

Used it externally for sciatica, helped a lot. I don't worry about its ability to carry things in. Have reasonably clean skin, then apply with a finger, at 70% or so.

What have you tried?

Hi bluenite,

I have only used DMSO to act as a solvent for other molecules and substances, as a pain reliever and as a transdermal penetration enhancer for other molecules and substances. While I found it worked well as a solvent and as a transdermal penetration enhancer, for me, it offered zero pain relief, but others have reported significant pain relief. I have not used it orally.

My main issue is the cleanliness required for safe use is difficult for me to maintain for any length of time as would be required for longer term testing. There is also the odor issue that has to be considered with longer term use. I understand that our bodies adapt to the smell fairly quickly, but not so much for others around us.

DMSO personal experience with use, particularly in the neurological field, both externally and internally

Personal information about this product is mostly fragmentary and highly controversial. It is either praised or condemned. Much like other similar substances, such as MMS or CDS.

In addition to its own effects, studies show that it also acts as a carrier of active substances deep into the body, right down to the cells. Even when applied externally, through the skin. This is probably the greatest danger of its use, due to its ability to draw into the body things that do not belong there. I am very interested in this topic and am looking for like-minded seekers who are willing to share. Does anyone have personal experience with DMSO, especially in the neurological field (lyme disease) or related digestive problems? However unrelated it may seem, at least according to conventional medicine. Or its effect on pathogens, parasites, bacteria, and viruses.

Thank you for any response.

You don't use both DMSO and MMS at the same time. DMSO is the liquid form of MMS. I use DMSO with distilled water. As far as how much, you need to start with a low dose and work your way up to what you need. Each person's sensitivity is different.

Betadine doesn't clean exactly. It disinfects. So it's not useful to use it before dmso unless you are hoping to help the iodine penetrate the skin.

Use soap and water to wash any chemicals from your skin before using dmso. Or just don't put chemicals on your skin, because even without dmso they do absorb into your blood over time.

Ulcers, Parasites, Digestive Issues
Posted by Roy (Harrisville, MI) on 03/09/2025

When I was in my early twenties, (I am now 71) my cousin, and I went to Jamaica. After my morning shower, which was cold, I brushed my teeth and gargled with some pretty gnarly tasting water.
Upon climbing the stairs to my room, I noticed an open air cistern on top of the building, where I had just showered. That was obviously the source of the water for my shower, etc. It was also the source of a myriad of parasites and bacteria that I became infected with.

Lizards, birds, and small, furry animals, etc. had been drinking and relieving themselves in that cystern that I drank from. What a cruel trick! For literally decades, I suffered with digestive issues and overwhelming pain. God only knows what that water contained.

Nothing that I ever tried helped to ease my suffering. Apparently many bacteria, such as H pylori are protected by tenacious bio films, which make them almost impossible to eradicate.

I tried literally hundreds of remedies over the decades to ease my suffering, all to no avail. I had constant, horrible pain from gas, indigestion, parasites, fungus and ulcers.

The bio films protected the H. Pylori bacteria, which was causing my problems. Nothing I ever tried could break through the bio films. Enter DMSO. Dimethyl Sulfoxide is an industrial solvent, which is derived from Pine trees. It has a long history of use in sports injuries. It's also used in equestrian circles to ease the pain of horse injuries. It has a unique quality that makes it a fantastic transdermal compound. When applied to clean skin, it can be combined with other natural compounds, and it will carry the compound through the skin and into the bloodstream. Understanding the properties of DMSO, I had a hunch that because of its intense solvent properties that I may be able to use it to break the biofilms.

I combined 99.9% pure DMSO, approved for clinical use, with pure distilled water, a 50/50 blend. I began taking two 1ml droppers full, orally, twice a day. I then rinsed my mouth with another glass of distilled water. I took this on an empty stomach, so it didn't react with the contents of my stomach. I followed this procedure for two weeks, and VOILA!!! My ulcer pain vanished. I no longer had painful gas. My digestion improved, and my gluten intolerance was dramatically improved. I'm not willing to say that it completely healed me, but it did more to improve my digestion than anything else I have ever tried. My advice to anyone interested in trying this, is to first read up on dmso because it can be dangerous if improperly used. As always, I am not a doctor, so seek the advice of your health care provider

I tore my toenail off and put DMSO on the nail bed which immediately staunched the flow of blood and cut the pain. I thought it might hurt later so I soaked a gauze pad and taped it to my toe. After 2 hours it began to sting - the skin blistered where it was not able to evaporate - I would not advise covering it any where ...

Can you please share what you did with the DMSO to find relief from your arthritis?

Thank you and God bless.

" Kenny (Minor Hill, TN) on 04/06/2021: 5 out of 5 stars [Editor's Choice] I have been using and recommending DMSO for many years! It cured my arthritis, and has cured three people I know of cancer! Yes, even stage four cancer! DMSO is a miracle drug! I do not recommend drug to be taken for preventative reasons, but I think DMSO can even help to clean the arteries and heal the heart, as I have also lived with an irregular heartbeat all my life but I've noticed that after taking the DMSO for my arthritis my constant irregular heartbeat has also vanished and now only once in a while feel my heart out of rhythm and even them not as pronounced as before! I've been an herbalist most of my life and DMSO and wild lettuce have impressed me more than anything else! "

Make yourself a solution of DMSO and a good aloe vera gel (1 cup aloe to 1/4 cup DMSO). You might also add 1/4 cup of colloidal silver if you want. Use this on your face and you won't have the drying and flakiness because the aloe vera counteracts that.

An hour? After, absorbs into our system. I wonder of this could backfire and take any tick borne infection deeper into the body? Or maybe the DMSO is so awesome that is kills all that on the spot, I am not sure.. Just wanted to through that out there for discussion.

You need to dilute it, of course... it still will taste horrible, but pure DMSO MUST be diluted. Use pharma grade/USP only.

Although now that I have started oral use after years of external use only; I am realizing that Nature's Gift is not as careful and pure as I would like, so considering other brands myself.

I read that sometimes you get more garlic odor from a less pure product also that some folks are detoxing more and so get the odor more.

Gary you are right,

I have an Olive oil for the heart story.

One of our church mothers testified that when she was a young woman, her heart was so bad that walking up a flight of stairs was breathtaking for her. She said, as she and her husband slept one night, her husband saw an angel. The angel said, "Give your wife a spoon of olive oil each day." She did not say what size spoon. She said it as if she was still taking it.

What I do know for sure, is that she was still visiting the sick in hospitals, and often doing her own shopping until she went to be with the Lord at ninety something. I would be going in a building, and with a smile, she would wave at me leaving the building. I would wonder what keeps her going. I never got the swing of daily olive oil, maybe I should try again.

Also:

Here is a very encouraging Amazon Review for DMSO:

Hello Andra of Calgary, Alberta,

Researching can be fun and certainly wise if you are about to jump into a new adventure. I was up early this morning so I decided to help you in your research. I did not see any Pubmed studies for DMSO plaque cleaning. What I did find is two articles that can be helpful.

One article says:

"Some people claim that dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) helps to dissolve calcium deposits, but DMSO isn't approved for this purpose."

https://www.healthline.com/health/how-to-get-rid-of-calcium-deposits#qampa

The next article is a more flavorful, it says…

"Atherosclerosis is a disease in which plaque builds up inside your arteries. As a result, oxygen-rich blood flow is limited to both your organs and other parts of your body. Typical treatments involve lifestyle challenges like a healthy diet and exercise. In laboratory testing, DMSO has demonstrated its ability to delay the development of narrowing arteries induced by dietary cholesterol. It also suppresses the accumulation of cholesterol in tissues, despite severely elevated levels."

I have been using DMSO for about 5 years. I buy it from a feed store or Tractor Supply. It is a lot cheaper and perfectly fine. I had bought both the pharmaceutical grade and that from the feed store. I could taste or tell no difference in the results.

I put 2 ounces of the DMSO and a 16 ounce glass and fill it up with water. I drink it slowly over about 20 minutes. It taste absolutely horrible. My friend drinks it with juice instead of water. Personally, I don't see how that would make it taste any better.

it's like an industrial strength Roto router to clean the plaque from the valves in my heart. I repeat this about every five or six months.

I have to drink a lot of water because my body gives off a garlicky smell for a couple of days.

Drinking DMSO for mental clarity following COVID and strokes

I have had two fascinating experiences with drinking 1 tsp of DMSO daily following a case of what some might think is or call "long COVID". My experience was such that I became very ill this past year for nearly two months. It was essentially pneumonia, but had a lot of other symptoms associated therewith that made it feel much worse than a lung problem. Thought I was going to die with this, but I managed to naturally cure myself.

I found myself mentally clouded and having terrible trouble with recall (I was normally exceptionally fast and higher end on the IQ range) which has been a death sentence for my work. After a lot of desperate trials of various things I stumbled upon oral DMSO consumption for brain damage patients.

I really didn't have much else to lose at this point due to my recall necessity, so I gave it a shot. I'm about a month in of taking 1 tsp of DMSO a day with about a glass of distilled water and I have been amazed at the results.

I believe I'm at about 90% of where I was before and perhaps, in some ways, better than prior to falling ill. I think my middle aged mind is closer to performance of about 15 years ago at this point. I'm not perfect in recall as I was, but I'm at about 90% as I said. The ways in which I'm better is that I'm feeling more alertness than I did before.

The next thing to report is that a loved one who has experienced brain damage from a series of strokes seems to be improving finally after being also desperate and trying many "medical" options. So far we've seen an improvement of about 10% of where they were and it seems as though this could go farther.

I am considering using 2 teaspoons per day as some have suggested - maybe spaced out prior to bed and in the morning - but I am still wanting to be on this protocol for a few months before taking it further.

Oral DMSO is nothing short of miraculous.

Regarding DMSO, I have used it both internally and externally for years with what I feel are very good results. I take 1 tsp of the 99.9% pure liquid every morning along with cider vinegar and H2O2 in a glass of water. Since I've been doing this, I can get out of bed in the morning, stand up straight and walk like a normal person. I also use DMSO / aloe vera gel for aches and pains from arthritis. I am 75 and have peripheral neuropathy due to agent orange in Vietnam, and DMSO gel is also a big pain reliever for my achy feet and hands.

You can buy both products on Amazon, but I found the pure liquid is cheaper at " Pet Meds". The gel is 70% DMSO and 30% aloe. From all I've read, and that's quite a lot, it is more effective at the 70 / 30 ratio when applied toppically.

If you want to learn more about DMSO, there is a good but short book available online from "HOOPLA". I don't remember the authors name, but the book is, "What Doctors Need to Know about DMSO."

At present time, I am also using it topically to treat my 'shingles', and it is working unbelievably well. I simply apply the gel several times a day. It has stopped the spread and kept the rash to limited space, as well as reducing pain.

I have found that mixing 2 large heaping spoon fulls of Blu-Emu extra strength with 5 droppers of DMSO and 5 droppers of refined Emu oil together will make the pain practically go away for 10-12 hrs. The DMSO really helps the ointment absorb into the skin much faster and works along with the ointment really fast. Give it a try, can't hurt!

The critical issue with chlorine dioxide (MMS) is the concentration. I have never used it, like apple cider vinegar. I'm afraid of its reaction with my Barrett's Esophagus. As for asking the doctor's advice, I am very wary of that due to most of them getting with the govt. narrative on Covid, Lockdowns, masks and jabs.


DMSO Smell Issues

I tried it, by taking a teaspoon in o.j., but people are telling me I have an odor! I also used honey and water added in. Maybe I'll have to up the honey?!? Or not take it internally! If I get sick I will taking it though, whether I stink or not!

I have experienced anxiety about that also. I transferred mine from the dense plastic in which it was shipped---over to cleaned, dark, glass wine bottles. At least I feel safer about the product now.

My wife is on (10%-DMSO) and Colloidal-Silver through the Nebulizer.

We separately do 5ml (10%-DMSO) and then 5ml Colloidal.

Her terrible coughing has improved 90% within the first day.

She had Asthma as a child.

To Charles from Masterson, New Zealand

What do you mean by 40%? Do you take it in juice? I have book but haven't read it yet. I have had a TIA 2 years ago. I am on apixaban to thin my blood. Do you know anyone on blood thinners who take DSMO? I took it just before I went to the ER. I suffer no ill effects from the TIA. I believe the DSMO made the difference.

Do you have any information on how to use it internally? My dog has a gum tumor that is growing rapidly. Had a surgery and they debulked and removed most of it but now it is coming back. It is also infected and has a strong odor. I am desperate and would try anything. I am giving him Essiac tea, supplements, and Coloidal silver. Do you have any suggestions on what could help? How to use DMSO internally?

Thank you!

A great book full of uses, reported cases & explanations: The DMSO Handbook For Doctors - Archie H Scott; easy to understand for non-doctors. I bought from "Book Depository" - free shipping to New Zealand. Example: 'Alzheimer's & Other Dementia'.

This writer had a friend who died at the age of 101. She showed no signs of mental decline. She used it (DMSO) regularly for over 30 years." We have been using DMSO for several years.In particular, we take 1 teaspoon of 40% every day, first thing in the morning.

As another precaution, we also put VCO (coconut oil) in our cereal. Buy this book -you will be so glad that you did. I am 81.

Nebulizing DMSO
Posted by Del (Paris, tn) on 05/23/2022

I hear they make different types of nebulizers. Search for ones that aren't made from plastics that will not tolerate dmso or mms, ect. I only know this from listening to certain doctors, namely the honorable "disinformation dozen." 🙄🙄🙄 So now we know that there are special nebulizers out there for different meds, ones that will hold up to the test.

I just starting using dmso. I had an ingrown toe nail and applied dmso straight from the bottle and in a day and a half, it's resolved itself.

I'm using it straight from the bottle for my inner thigh psoas muscles and don't seem to have any reaction from it. I'm looking forward to more issues to be solved with dmso.

Renee,

DMSO is a solvent and plastic is known to leach. Although quite convenient, possibly not the safest method for application because the nature of a spray bottle is that it holds the fluid in the plastic pump even when not in use. That means the solvent is in contact with the plastic 24/7 and there is no practical way to determine if the plastic has leached into the solvent. Is it worth the risk, since DMSO is well noted for carrying things through the skin barrier?

I put my 50/50 DMSO & distilled water into a 2 oz. glass bottle with sprayer and spray the areas I want to use it on. I then rub it in. I have been using it for 3 days this way with no irritation anywhere, including my hands that I don't wash after. I haven't noticed a ton of results yet but I think some minor benefits so far. I am also adding a pinch of Borax in my coffee in the morning. I had to take ibuprofen today because I couldn't walk on my swollen, inflamed feet. How long before I see more results? What is the average time for these protocols to work.

DMSO Application Tips
Posted by BevilNC (NC) on 05/08/2022

My practice has always been to wash as normal/shower or clean the area to be applied with soap and water and rinse it well. Let it dry then apply the DMSO with an organic cotton ball. Then I made sure to let it dry before putting any clothing over the area. Betadine would simply be carried into your skin by the DMSO and betadine is not pure iodine, it has other ingredients you don't really want absorbed into your blood stream. You need to be careful with DMSO but not to the point of being fearful. If it eases your mind you could clean the area with food grade hydrogen peroxide since that would be fine getting carried in. No gloves as the heating action of DMSO is not kind to plastics and it would possibly dissolve them and carry those chemicals in.

I am new at this DMSO, so I would like to know if anyone cleaned their skin first with betadine since it is used in hospitals? I read about some reactions to different materials, can you use gloves to apply this to the skin?

Regarding diluting dmso for topical application, usually 50% dilution is good but everyone is different so just experiment.

To take dmso by mouth you can either put it in large cellulose capsules 1mL at a time and swallow them before they melt (in a minute), or you can just dilute it in enough water. 1mL in a liter of water is hard to taste. But you might want to use more, so in that case capsules and topical.

To avoid smelling bad, take extra magnesium and drink ( raw goat preferably) milk. Lots more info from the yummy.doctor website or in the book DMSO:Nature's Healer.

They said the same thing about my dad, nearly 2 years ago & they were rushing us to make a decision about starting treatment. We decided to leave alone that 'Huge Tumor' (which would only give him no more than 4-7 months' time) that they were so concerned about & guess what? once the regular enlarged prostate issues subsided (with a little help from healthy diet & natural remedies such as Frankincense ('Boswellia') it turned out to be NOTHING after all. It's a long story, can't get into it now but suffice it to say 1- The details alone would prove how much safer we are to leave some 'cancers' alone. And 2- Big-pharma/Medical Establishment makes lots of intentional & unintentional mistakes. ***One of the doctors even said he was gonna bleed to death unless he was rushed to surgery right then & there during one of our routine visits. You should've seen the scene he raised & the drama queen he turned into just because I questioned him a few good questions. Again, that was TWO years ago. ;) ***

Please, listen to this doctor. You will understand everything. Also, you'll learn about DMSO & all other natural solutions. On his youtube channel he's got 10000 of videos of him speaking to other holistic chiropractors on every health related issue.

BTW He's in Southern California.

Hi Amy,

There have been some reports of Albendazole and Mebendazole, over the counter human and animal anti-worming medications with a long history of use and generally considered safe being involved in complete remissions of lung cancer. Two cases in point include a man called Joe Tippens, who writes a blog about his experience at

https://www.mycancerstory.rocks//single-post/my-story-part-1-start-here and a case being treated by Care Oncology in the U.K. with Mebendazole.

Joe Tippens brought this medication to light when on the suggestion of his veterinarian started taking it to address his stage 4 terminal lung cancer with positive results. There are rumours online that he has passed but as far as I can tell he is still alive and active as he has recently added a new video on his blog at my cancer story rocks.

There is also information on Pubmed regarding these medications including discussions about safety and dosages including a clinical trial with Mebendazole with a range of glioma types that has been ongoing for almost 10 years, and now due to be completed in 2022 - 2023.

I hope this information reaches you in a timely way and assists you with what you are looking for,

Kind regards. :)

Jaw Pain

I have recently started to experience jaw pain, and nerve pain on the lower right side causing nerve pain in those teeth. At first I thought I had an ear infection went to the doctor about that and my doctor said it was a sinus infection. I went to see my dentist and he explained that the nerve pain was from clenching my teeth on one side. He put some temporary pain medicine on those molars but it only lasted a day.

I stumbled on DMSO read up on it and ordered some pharmaceutical grade DMSO. I dabbed full strength on my back teeth and on my gums. in about 5 minutes all the pain was gone. I also put some down my jaw line and next to my ear and immediately I had experience relief.

At first I had to apply DMSO about every hour but now I only apply about every 4 hours. What a huge miracle.

Bought dmso for my sore shoulder, I dont know why it was sore but I couldn't lift my arm above my head and it was starting to hurt even without movement, so earth clinic suggested dmso and castor oil.

1 application and after a rash, itch and a little discomfort the pain went from 9 out of 10 to like a 2.....i love herbs and old remedies and would definitely recommend this
