Summary
Story at-a-glance
- DMSO is an "umbrella remedy" capable of treating a wide range of challenging ailments due to its combination of therapeutic properties (e.g., reducing inflammation, improving circulation, and reviving dying cells)
- One of DMSO's unique properties is its ability to enter through the skin and carry anything it dissolves with it as it rapidly travels throughout the body, greatly enhancing the potency and viability of many pharmaceutical drugs
- Because of this, numerous preparations over the years have combined DMSO with a commonly used medication, and in many cases, demonstrated safety and efficacy of the combination to drug regulators
- Some of these DMSO combination therapies are able to treat challenging illnesses, such as significant musculoskeletal injuries, antibiotic resistant infections, persistent fungal and viral infections, chemotherapy resistant cancers, and chronic pain
- More creative DMSO combinations (which can be produced at home) have been frequently used to successfully treat many challenging conditions (e.g., tinnitus, a wide range of eye issues, cancers, and uncomfortable scars)
