Orilla, when you freeze/clean your DMSO, if you have distilled water or colloidal silver, wash the ice cube that's left. Or rinse the bottle and pour out the rinse.

I generally put the dmso in a pour container because I can't always get the liquid, when there is some, to come out of the bottle if I just put the bottle in the fridge. It's easy to pour off and then I rinse the ice block with CS or distilled water and I rinse out the empty bottle before I pour the DMSO back in.

DMSO freezes around 65ºF so refrigerating will freeze it. Mine takes about 3 hours to freeze usually, and often takes longer to thaw on the counter. Prolly has something to do with purity.

I started rinsing because the non frozen liquid was so abominably strong...

I think it helps. By the way, I got as much "extra" out of the 8 oz 99.9% pure brown glass bottle I bought at the health food store for an arm and a leg as the $5.95 quart from Rural King.

As I understand it, there is some you can buy that supposedly has  no odor.

Someone on the DMSO list, Vince, I think, said that he read a protocol where one works up to 5 dropperfuls a day, adding 1 dropper whenever you and others can no longer smell it. He hypothesized that it could be that the DMSO stinks when it's cleaning/dissolving something in the body. I haven't tried this yet but intend to. I feel sooooo good when I take it internally it'd be lovely to find a way to help folks use it who are less tolerant of the process.

FWIW

Hi Dianne. Yesterday, I put the DMSO in the fridge for about 8 hours. I then took it out and poured out the water. About 1/4 of the entire container came out. It made a big difference in just smelling out of the bottle before and after. I will now be doing this with my entire gallon. Whoever gave us this info, thanks. Orrilia
