Summary

Story at-a-glance

Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), a forgotten gem from the 1960s, effectively treats a broad spectrum of conditions, including strokes, tissue injuries, autoimmune inflammation, a myriad of skin diseases, and many challenging infections
One of the least-known benefits of DMSO is that it also eliminates cancers (especially when combined with another therapy) and protects the body from damage created by conventional cancer therapies
In dozens of experiments, DMSO has been shown to prevent the damage radiation does to cells, animals, and humans and to heal existing radiation injuries — something relevant not only to cancer patients but also to those receiving CT scans
DMSO effectively prevents many of the illnesses and complications that follow chemotherapy. Likewise, it also protects patients from accidental chemotherapy injuries where the medication leaks into the tissue
DMSO heals surgical wounds (which prevents many complications from cancer surgeries) and significantly extends the survival of patients whose tumors were surgically removed

0:15.4	Hello and welcome to Dr. Mercola's Cellular Wisdom. I'm Ethan Foster, and today we're discussing a topic that
0:22.2	has sparked considerable attention among those seeking natural health solutions. We'll be
0:27.5	focusing on dimethyl sulfoxide, commonly known as DMSO and its potential to ease the hidden
0:33.8	burdens of cancer, including chemotherapy side effects, pain, and radiation injuries.
0:40.2	Joining me is my co-host, Alara Sky. Ilarah, thank you for being here today. Thank you,
0:46.6	Ethan. I'm looking forward to sharing insights on DMSO and why it has sometimes been referred to
0:52.8	as a forgotten gem from the 1960s.
0:55.8	This substance has a long and fascinating history, with thousands of studies demonstrating its
1:01.0	potential for addressing a wide range of health concerns, from tissue injuries and neurological
1:06.0	disorders, to chronic pain and beyond. Yet many people have never heard of it or don't realize the breadth of its
1:12.7	applications. Indeed. Let's start by looking at how DMSO became such a valuable yet under-recognized
1:20.5	compound. It's been shown to help with burns, strokes, circulatory issues like Raynows, chronic pain from arthritis or back injuries, and
1:30.0	autoimmune conditions such as interstitial cystitis.
1:33.5	One of the most interesting points I've come across is its potential effect on cancer.
1:38.1	Can you tell us more about that side of de MSO?
1:40.7	Certainly.
1:41.8	One of the lesser known aspects of DMSO is that it appears capable of inhibiting the growth
1:47.0	of various cancers. Some research also suggests that DMSO may revert cancer cells to a more normal state
1:54.0	and help the immune system target tumor cells more effectively. Furthermore, DMSO can enhance certain therapies. It may increase the
