DMSO
has many benefits. Sports teams and Olympic athletes use DMSO
as a pain killer and to reduce swelling. Arthritis sufferers
use it to reduce joint pain and improve their quality of life.
It is used to prevent herpes outbreaks, treat scar tissue and
other skin conditions.
The
history of DMSO as a pharmaceutical began in 1961, when Dr. Jacob
was head of the organ transplant program
at Oregon Health Sciences University. It all started when he
first picked up a bottle of the colorless liquid. While investigating
its potential as a preservative for organs, he quickly discovered
that it penetrated the skin quickly and deeply without damaging
it. He was intrigued. Thus began his lifelong investigation . 
The news media soon got word of his discovery, and it was
not long before reporters, the pharmaceutical industry, and
patients with a variety of medical complaints jumped on the
news. Because it was available for industrial uses, patients
could dose themselves. This early public interest interfered
with the ability of Dr. Jacob--or, later, the FDA--to see that
experimentation and use were safe and controlled and may have
contributed to the souring of the mainstream medical community
on it.
Why, if DMSO possesses half the capabilities claimed by Dr.
Jacob and others, is it still on the sidelines of medicine
in the United States today?
"It's a square peg being pushed into a round hole," says
Dr. Jacob. "It doesn't follow the rifle approach of one
agent against one disease entity. It's the aspirin of our era.
If aspirin were to come along today, it would have the same
problem. If someone gave you a little white pill and said take
this and your headache will go away, your body temperature
will go down, it will help prevent strokes and major heart
problems--what would you think?"
DMSO has been used for over 100 years in the United
States. It is a natural substance derived from wood pulp
and is harmless when used with the proper precautions
Dr. Jacob believes the FDA "blackballed" DMSO, actively
trying to kill interest in a drug that could end much suffering.
Jack de la Torre, MD, Ph.D., professor of neurosurgery and
physiology at the University of New Mexico Medical School in
Albuquerque, a pioneer in the use of DMSO and closed head injury,
says, "Years ago the FDA had a sort of chip on its shoulder
because it thought DMSO was some kind of snake oil medicine.
There were people there who were openly biased against the
compound even though they knew very little about it. With the
new administration at that agency, it has changed a bit." The
FDA recently granted permission to conduct clinical trials
in Dr. de la Torre's field of closed head injury.
DMSO Penetrates Membranes and Eases Pain
The first quality that struck Dr. Jacob about the drug was
its ability to pass through membranes, an ability that has
been verified by numerous subsequent researchers.1 DMSO's ability
to do this varies proportionally with its strength--up to a
90 percent solution. From 70 percent to 90 percent has been
found to be the most effective strength across the skin, and,
oddly, performance drops with concentrations higher than 90
percent. Lower concentrations are sufficient to cross other
membranes. Thus, 15 percent DMSO will easily penetrate the
bladder.2
DMSO is a naturally occurring solvent (like water)
derived from trees, which carries oxygen and passes easily
through your skin.
We mix DMSO with Aloe Vera to help nourish the skin as the
DMSO passes through on it's way to carry out the many functions

DMSO has several interesting properties that
may make it useful. For instance, it has the ability to penetrate
tissues including intact skin, and carry along with it a variety
of chemicals. It has a local analgesic affect, and inhibits
certain compounds in the body called prostaglandins, thereby
reducing inflammation in tissues.
How DMSO is used
Whilst people drink 5mL (tsp) of DMSO in juice 3 times a day, generally
it is massaged into clean skin, keeping clear of the eyes.
Doctors do apply DMSO directly into veins or the bladder.
The choice of the process used in the various applications is
the responsibility (solely) of the user.
Our DMSO is typically
99.95% Pure Pharmaceutical Grade
Below is a typical chemical analysis of our DMSO (DiMethyl SulfOxide)
l DMSO content = 99.95%
l Water (H²0) content = 0.05%
l Crystallization Point = 18.3°C
l Refractive Index at 20°C = 1.4786
l Acid Value = 0.012 mgKOH/g
l Light Absorptivity 275nm = 0.26
l Light Absorptivity 285/275nm = 0.63
l Light Absorptivity 295/275nm = 0.41
One teaspoonful (5mL) of our 70% DMSO blend contains...
l 3500mg of DMSO
Recommended dosage is...
l Up to 1 teaspoon (5mL) of DMSO 3 or 4 times a day
A level of DMSO that is estimated to be unsafe to receive, is
greater than 10,000mg per Kilogram of bodyweight, as a toxicology
study with a daily dose of 10mL per Kg of bodyweight showed DMSO
to be safe and non-toxic.

DMSO
is Natural - From Trees DMSO's oxidised state MSM has been measured to occur naturally
in our blood at a concentration of approximately 0.2 parts
per million.
DMSO is an organic, non-synthesized product extracted from
trees (living plants), as a by product from the production
of paper. "David W. Gregg, Ph.D. (www.krysalis.net)" wonders
if it is an important, but unrecognised component, we obtain
from eating plants that greatly assists our metabolism.
It may be no accident that the body develops a garlic odour
when one uses DMSO. Could the breakdown of known active components
in garlic be a potent plant source of DMSO, which would explain
some of the greatly touted health benefits of garlic?
A very extensive toxicology study of DMSO was conducted at
(approx 10ml per kg of body weight per day) 3 to 30 times the
usual treatment dose in humans, for 3 months. DMSO appears
to be a very safe drug for human administration. I am very
glad to be able to present this data at this time, so that
we can permanently dispel the myth that DMSO is in any way
a toxic or dangerous drug. After considerable work in evaluating
thousands of cases that were treated in 1964 and 1965, and
after this special toxicology study, I feel that we can unequivocally
say that DMSO is quite safe, and now the only necessary task
is the proof of its efficacy in specific indications.

Once it is understood that DMSO acts as a profoundly effective
oxygen transport system, this opens up the opportunity to use
this information to treat a multitude of medical disorders,
immediate and long term that are caused by a deficiency of
oxygen transport. As one example, it has been reported that
DMSO is greatly helpful in minimizing the damage from a traumatic
brain injury due to a blow to the head or a stroke. Now the
explanation as to why it helps is clear. Brain cells, more
than any other cells in the body cannot tolerate a lack of
oxygen for an extended period of time. The DMSO will enhance
oxygen transport to the brain cells until there is sufficient
healing to where blood flow and the conventional oxygen transport
system is reestablished.
DMSO: Many Uses,
Much Controversy
DMSO
is a Transfer Mechanism for Oxygen
DMSO has one oxygen molecule attached to a sulfur atom. When
it attracts another oxygen molecule it becomes MSM, which is
commonly available as a health food supplement.
It appears that DMSO circulate in the body operating as an
exceptionally effective oxygen transport mechanism, as they
are highly soluble in both oil and water, so have no barriers.
When DMSO is exposed to an area of low oxygen potential, it
gives off its oxygen atom and either evaporates off the body,
or if transported to the lungs, it could reattach oxygen to
become DMSO again, (or MSM with even more oxygen). When MSM
is exposed to an area of low oxygen potential it gives off
oxygen to become DMSO which if transported to an area of high
oxygen potential would become MSM again.
This mechanism appears to operate to deliver oxygen to cellular
mitochondria independant of all other mechanisms.
DMSO Delivers
Dissolved Substances Through Your Skin
DMSO has very small molecules that are soluble in both oil
and water. It easily and rapidly diffuses through your skin
and other cell structures.
DMSO's ability to do this varies proportionally with its strength.
From 70 to 90 percent has been found to be the most effective
strength across the skin. Lower concentrations are sufficient
to cross other membranes.
We supply 70% pure DMSO with 30% Aloe Vera or H2O.
After a suggestion from "David W. Gregg, Ph.D. (www.krysalis.net)" we
tried dissolving B12 into DMSO and massaging it into the skin.
We foolishly did this at 10pm and got such a boost of energy
that we didn't get to sleep until 4am. It certainly appeared
to deliver B12 very efficiently.
Now consider if you have a problem with your digestion absorbing
nutrients or a deficiency in an extremity. DMSO appears to
be an obvious choice to deliver the nutrients straight into
any location.
Warning - Skin and hands must be clean when applying DMSO
as otherwise any soluble toxins on the skin will be delivered
into your cells.
DMSO Renders Viruses Inactive
DMSO at 80% concentration inactivated viruses tested by Chan
and Gadenbusch. These viruses included four RNA viruses, influenza
A virus, influenza A-2 virus, Newcastle disease virus, Semliki
Forest virus, and DNA viruses. Chan, J.C., and Gadebusch, H.H.
Virucidal properties of dimethyl sulfoxide. Appl. Microbiol.
16: 1625-1626 (1968).
We report the inactivation of the Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV-1)
by oxygen. Müller-Breitkreutz K, Mohr H, Briviba K, and
Sies H. PMID: 8558363
Herpes Simplex Virus triggers activation of calcium-signaling
pathways.
Cheshenko N, Del Rosario B, Woda C, Marcellino D, Satlin LM, Herold BC.
PMID: 14568989
It is calcium that transports oxygen into the cell. Brewster
AK. PMID: 6522424
DMSO can block calcium-induced degeneration of isolated heart
cells. Clark, M.G., Gannon, B.J., Bodkin, N., Patten, G.S.,
and Berry, M.N. Biochemical and moronologic study. J. Mol.
Cell. Cariol 10: 1101-1121 (1978).
In other words it appears to us that DMSO releases oxygen
along the calcium channels to inactivate the Herpes Simplex
Virus (HSV-1).
DMSO Inhibits Bacteria
DMSO exerts a marked inhibitory effect on a wide range of
bacteria and fungi including at least one parasite, at concentrations
of 30 to 50%. Basch, H., and Gadebusch, H.H. In vitro antimicrobial
activity of dimethyl sulfoxide. Appl. Microbiol. 16: 1953-1954
(1968).
DMSO in 12.5 to 25% concentration caused complete inhibition
of growth of 27 pleomorphic bacteria such as regularly isolated
from human tumours and leukaemic blood without affecting the
intact blood cells. Seibert, F.B., Farrelly, F.K., and Shepherd,
C.C. DMSO and other combatants against bacteria isolated from
leukaemia and cancer patients. Ann. N.Y. Acad. Sci. 141: 175-201
(1967).
DMSO produced a bacteriostatic effect on staphylococcus, perhaps
by the observed increase in oxygen uptake and the decrease
in the rate of glycine transport. Ghajar, B.M., and Harmon,
S.A. Effect of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) on permeability of
Staphylococcus aurens. Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 32: 940-944
(1968).

DMSO Reduces
Pain
DMSO produced analgesia by acting both locally and systemically.
The analgesia appeared to be unrelated to that produced by
morphine although the two appear to be a comparable magnitude.
DMSO had a longer duration of action than morphine, 6 hr vs
2 hr, respectively. Haigler, H.J. Comparison of the analgesic
effects of dimethyl sulfoxide and morphine. Ann. N.Y. Acad.
Sci. 411: 19-27 (1983).
DMSO injected subcutaneously in 10% concentration into cats
produced a total loss of the central pain response. Two millilitres
of 50% DMSO injected into the cerebrospinal fluid led to total
anaesthesia of the animal for 30 minutes. Complete recovery
of the animal occurred without apparent ill effect. Shealy,
C.N. Personal communication. June 5, 1969.
The above two paragraphs seem to support the claims of many
sports athletes who apply DMSO on strains and sprains and report
pain is quickly reduced.
DMSO applied topically to the skin produced electromyographic
evidence of muscle relaxation one hour after application. Birkmayer,
W., Danielczyk, W., and Werner, H. DMSO bei spondylogenen neuropathien.
In "DMSO Symposium, Vienna, 1966" (G. Laudahn and
K. Gertich, Eds.) pp. 134-136 Saladruck, Berlin (1966).
DMSO
Reduces Inflammation
Topical 70% DMSO showed potent anti-inflammatory properties
in Arthritis, Contact Dermatitis, and Allergic Eczema. Gorog,
P., and Kovaces, I.B. Effect of DMSO on various experimental
cutaneous ractions. Pharmacology 67: in press.
DMSO reduces inflammation by several mechanisms. It is an
antioxidant, a scavenger of the free radicals that gather at
the site of injury. This capability has been observed in animals
and in 150 Ulcerative Colitis patients in a double-blinded
randomized study in Baghdad, Iraq. DMSO also stabilizes membranes
and slows or stops leakage from injured cells.
DMSO bought significant relief to the majority of 213 patients
with inflammatory GenitoUrinary disorders at the Cleveland
Clinic Foundation, Ohio in 1978.
Stephen Edelson, MD, F.A.A.F.P., F.A.A.E.M., who practices
medicine at the Environmental and Preventive Health Center
of Atlanta, has used DMSO extensively for 4 years. "We
use it intravenously as well as locally," he says. "We
use it for all sorts of inflammatory conditions, from people
with rheumatoid arthritis to people with chronic low back inflammatory-type
symptoms, and any kind of autoimmune process.

The cancer protocol of MMS also
includes DMSO to make it even more effective .
"A by-product of paper manufacturing, it was first synthesized
in 1866. As medication, DMSO was used initially in the 1960's.
Following FDA [Food and Drug Administration] approval for experimental
use, it was applied in topical form to relieve pain, reduce
swelling, heal injuries such as muscle strains and sprains,
and treat arthritis." (Cassileth)
DMSO was first reported in 1963 by Stanley Jacob, M.D. of
the University of Oregon Medical School. Jacob claimed that "DMSO
could penetrate skin and produce local analgesia, decrease
pain, and promote healing of injured tissue." (Hafner)
DMSO can travel through the skin and into tissue - Dr. Stanley
Jacob suggested that it might become a vehicle for administering
cancer drugs into tumours. (CA)
"There is some evidence that DMSO can also protect against
radiation damage." (Dunlop)
DMSO received publicity as a painkiller when a U.S. governor
reported that his wife, who was dying of bone cancer, had used
veterinarian DMSO to relieve her pain. (Dunlop)
"DMSO stimulates various parts of the immune system and
scavenges hydroxyl radicals, the most potent of free radicals.
Since free radicals promote tumor growth, this may be one of
the mechanisms by which DMSO interferes with the development
of cancer. It may also explain why patients who receive DMSO
while undergoing either chemotherapy or radiation (both which
generate free radicals in order to kill cancer cells) are far
less prone to such side effects as hair loss, nausea, and dry
mouth." (Diamond)
"Both DMSO and retinoic acid (RA) were found to be effective
in reducing cell growth. DMSO, however, was found to be the
stronger inhibitor." (Grunt)
"Dose-dependent protection against tumor development
was afforded by allopurinol and DMSO." (Salim)
Supporters believe that DMSO can cut through a protein shell
surrounding cancer cells and so may assist medications and
the immune system in attacking cancer cells. (Ontario)
It is also believed that DMSO can decrease the energy level
of cancer cells and cause them to become benign. (Ontario)
The principal proponent is Mrs. Mildred Miller, owner and
administrator of the Degenerative Disease Medical Center in
Las Vegas. Mrs. Miller is editor of Preventive Health News,
a monthly tabloid that promotes DMSO as a treatment for arthritis,
mental illness, emphysema and cancer.

Potential for Allergic Reaction
As with almost anything, some people are allergic to DMSO, so caution
should be exercised in its initial use to test this possibility. Start
with one drop and if there is any allergic reaction, don't use it at
all. Consult with your physician on this issue.
