DMSO Dimethyl Sulfoxide - Why All The Interest?
DMSO is a powerful free radical scavenger and an effective anti-inflammatory agent. It also has pain-relieving, collagen-softening, and anti-inflammatory characteristics, making it an incredibly effective natural pain reliever.
Dimethyl Sulfoxide (DMSO) is a colorless, transparent, hygroscopic fluid over a wide range of temperatures. DMSO rose to fame due to its ability to easily pass through the skin and other biological membranes. It's a sulfur-based compound with some amazing healing properties. First discovered in late 19th century Germany as a byproduct of wood pulping, DMSO can also be found in fruits, in the sea, and in the atmosphere.

Therapeutic Properties of DMSO
16 Major Therapeutic Properties of DMSO: Referenced from "DMSO, Nature's Healer" by Dr. Morgan Walker pages 50 and 152:
-
It blocks pain by interrupting the conduction in the small c-fibers, the nonmyelinated nerve fibers.
-
It is anti-inflammatory.
-
It is bacteriostatic, fungistatic, and virostatic.
-
It transports numerous pharmaceuticals across membranes.
-
It reduces the incidence of platelet thrombi in blood vessels.
-
It has a specific effect on cardiac contractility by inhibiting calcium to reduce the workload of the heart.
-
It stimulates prostaglandin synthesis - cyclical fatty acids that possess diverse biologic activities that affect cell function in every organ system. PGs have sedative and anticonvulsive effects on the central nervous system.
-
It enhances antifungal and antibacterial agents when combined with them.
-
It is a vasodilator, probably related to histamine release in the cells and to prostaglandin inhibition.
-
It inhibits the release of cholinesterase.
-
It tends to soften collagen by its peculiar cross-linking effect.
-
It scavenges the hydroxyl free radical.
-
It stimulates various types of immunity.
-
It is a potent diuretic, especially when administered intravenously.
-
It brings about interferon formation in the organism.
-
It stimulates the healing of wounds.
