Dear Donna, 3 cc of DMSO with 300 cc of CS is, essentially, a 10% (by volume) mixture----one we have used experimentally for the past 9 years....with never an untoward reaction in animals or humans. Concentrations of 10% DMSO are QUITE bitter to the taste buds in the rear of the mouth (in humans)....therefore, if ingesting experimentally, one would probably find that 5% is about the upper limit of easy tolerance. We have found 10% concentrations to stimulate the gag reflex...in some cases (although this is was never harmful, just uncomfortable). We have never found any complications or visual reactions when mixing DMSO with CS. One proviso however, always pour/inject the DMSO into the water fraction....not the reverse. DMSO X water-bearing solutions is a heat generator. One should remember this---especially when diluting larger volumes (e.g. a pint of DMSO with, say, 2 quarts of water. My counsel, derived from many, many, evaluations, is to regard DMSO as quite benign....although an exceptionally powerful solvent and transporter of many other substances/solutions of substances. Many allopathic-based research/academic groups make an extra effort to frighten alternative researchers....regarding possible complications arising from combining DMSO with other substances....disregarding the fact that a normal child possesses more than adequate "common sense"----to comprehend that ANY substance found on the planet can be lethal....if one can consume enough of it. My impatience with the fomenters of fear and untruth impel me toward these remarks. I am most aware of the caution one is drawn to when investigating elements and conditions beyond the normal purview of their training or knowledge; and discretion is, indeed, the better part of valor. This said, after 25 years of personal experience with the substance identified as DMSO, hundreds of protocols (some of which one would find difficult to accept), I state, categorically----DMSO is one of the most benign substances I (or any of our staff) have ever researched for applicable inclusion in experimental medical protocols. If you have more than a passing interest in DMSO, I recommend you obtain a copy of Dr. Stanley Jacobs book on the subject. If you desire a treatise directed, essentially, to the layman, Pat McGrady's book, "DMSO, The Persecuted Drug" is excellent (although somewhat dated in content). I believe there is, at present, a discussion list dedicated specifically to DMSO....although I do not know exactly where they are located, but I am confident some one on this list does. Do forgive this lengthy post, but I have quite visceral feelings relating to the obscene manner in which this substance...and the researchers attempting to demonstrate its marvelous characteristics, have been vilified by the allopathic drug/practitioner combine. --- Sincerely, Brooks Bradley.
