DMSO is a naturally occurring compound that is primarily derived as a byproduct of the wood pulp and paper industry, which makes it widely and affordably available. But that also creates a problem...
As s a physician myself let me make it clear, this is not a cure all medication. BUT, it absolutely has excellent properties or pain relief and healing that have either been overlooked or deliberately cast aside for profit. IMO, rigorous studies by independent (non pharma) researchers need to look at its use from cardiac, pulmonary, neurological, cancer, pain, and many other aspects. As an Anesthesiologist I would rejoice to have another adjunct medication with a low risk, high benefit profile that dmso seems to have. I hope I see it in my lifetime. In the meantime, I too mix it with castor oil for skin hydration and pain, aloe for quick sunburn or other burn healing and pain control, and various essential oils to keep my skin youthful. I'm almost 50 and aside from m3 being lazy about dying my hair, my patients swear I'm in my late 30s. I'm very up front about who I am, including my age and they always ask my secret. I say avoid noon sun, get plenty of after 3pm sun and moosturize skin with dmso, castor oil, and a few other things. And alkaline water (I love fiji water) or spring water (I visit hot springs a LOT). Just my thoughts here, not every one has to agree or like, but I have been in this business for a long time and know ALL the drugs. Even ones from 100 years ago that aren't used anymore. Healthcare needs a kick in the ass sometimes because what's old can become new again.
In the mid-1980's I was lucky enough to stumble across a well researched and well documented book about DMSO in my public library. Reading that book convinced me of two things:
1) DMSO is safe--far safer than most over the counter medications--and effective at facilitating all kinds of healing, and
2) The FDA is a corrupt organization that does not work for you and me. The FDA works for Pharma.
As a result of #2, I became very skeptical of anything and everything that Western orthodox medicine promotes, and would do my own research when considering whether to follow their recommendations. When covid came along, most of what they were pushing seemed patently absurd, everything from the PCR test that gives false positives to masks to the"6 foot rule" (WTF?!) to the banning of cures like IVM to the complete craziness of the shots! You're telling me you are going to trick my own cells to produce trillions of copies of a toxic foreign protein?! These people have lost their minds!!
I have been reading about DMSO for several months now and I actually ordered some and I’m taking it orally.
The problem is no one has protocols for how to use it or how much. That’s what I need to know. A Midwestern doctor has a few things on there but it’s hard to find anything because his newsletters are too lengthy explaining all the clinicals stuff.. if anyone out there knows a holistic or functional medicine practitioner who can help with protocols for specific issues I would love to hear about them. 😊
The reason protocols don't exist are because not enough current research done on different conditions. The dose for pain may be different for other needs.
I was diagnosed with cervical spondylosis last June. I had tingling in my upper arm and pain from my upper arm through my neck. I was told to put heat on it, that’s all!
The pain came back shortly after removing my heating pad.
I then used the 4 most hated words in the medical establishment, I “did my own research.” After looking into it, I started applying DMSO twice a day. After 3 days, the tingling was gone and after 5 days, the pain was gone as well.
It came back twice and each time, just 2 days of DMSO resolved it.
Thanks for the overview on DMSO, which "AMidwestern doctor" has been pushing hard. I've been a devotee of natural healing all my life. When this was a fad back in the 80s I was highly skeptical and never needed it or tried it. After my mother died of cancer I tried some of the Gerson protocols, probably internalizing the horrors of cancer and death that she went through. The "coffee enema" part of Gerson I regard as highly unnatural and imbalencing and it weirds other people out as you do the coffee retention enema then go to the toilet with a lot of pressure coming out splattering feces in the toilet bowl. Someone has to clean that and they'll resent those who are creating these messes wondering what the hell is going on. Resentment can be felt and is a killer of relationships. So those trying these offbeat products need to consider their effects not just on personal health where people experiment, but on the fabric of society and whether a given treatment is in line with traditional healing.
I believe that those struggling with various ailments would probably be a lot better off than getting self-absorbed trying to neurotically addresss some health issue, get out in the sunshine and get lots of healthy exercise, or volunteer, or find socially productive work. Many of our major political problems are due to the unnatural internet and smartphone addictions where people are tuning out of what is physically going on around them. I know a number of people from the "baby boom" generation whose health has been failing them. Why? In some cases people are trying to recover from bad doctor treatments; in others their social and work networks are not healthy, some are borderline toxic.
I'd think that health solutions could be a lot simpler such as spending less time online, more time in prayer, Bible reading, and focusing on God's great gifts.
I make it myself and use a 50:50 ratio, same with aloe. Dmso is higher concentrations can be very irritating to skin, even in a 50:50 ratio but it works for me.
Back in 1971, I was so scared of the thalidomide debacle that I (and friends who were also pregnant) just chose to throw up for a while rather than take any medications at all. What still puzzles me is who did they test it on? Pregnant women would have been the most important group, and they did not note deformities? or was there an acceptable number of deformities? That was the start of my complete distrust of the medical system, and nothing has happened since that would change that.
I used a DMSO rollon on my knee that is always inflamed now due to a laparoscopic knee operation I had about thirty years ago. I don't think they do that any more. Anyway, inflammation went away, now I just have to figure out how to get rid of the giant wad of scar tissue. Stopped using the DMSO for a while, inflammation came back. Two weeks ago i had some sort of very painful gum infection. One night I just though okay, be brave - and just squirted a dropperful of DMSO right on my gums. Inflammation gone in two days. But side effect - inflammation in my knee has disappeared. So will keep on doing that for a while. Gotta admit - I am quite an old lady, not on any meds since birth control, and felt very bad to the bone when I started using DMSO. Good stuff, and I don't care what it tastes or smells like if it fixes things. And Midwestern Doctor is the best!
I have been using DMSO topically for joint pain and taking it orally since learning about it from a midwestern doctor. I REALLY would appreciate any recommendations on what protocol to use for Alzheimer’s prevention.
I started using DMSO 15 years ago to help with arthritis pain, using it both topically and orally. I found it to be most effective when ingested, but unfortunately for me I'm one of the 40% of people who stink of garlic and spoiled oysters when they take it internally, so in deference to the multitude of people who wrinkled their noses and said "What's that awful smell?" when they were in my immediate vicinity, I stopped taking it orally. However I can attest that it's very effective as an analgesic.

Are DMSO and castor oil mixed together and then applied? If so, what is the ratio? Or, apply one and then the other?
I make it myself and use a 50:50 ratio, same with aloe. Dmso is higher concentrations can be very irritating to skin, even in a 50:50 ratio but it works for me.
Wonderful! Thank you!

Also no jabs. No flu, no mRNA, nothing.

I just bought the book Healing with DMSO by Amandha Vollmer, I have two bottles of DMSO, I want to learn how to use it.
